No. The filter helps narrow the set of buildings by tenant-protection category, but the lease you sign controls renewal mechanics. Ask for the proposed renewal terms and any documented rent-change rules.

Ask the building or agent for the full monthly cost picture (rent plus deposit and any recurring fees/utility responsibilities), review the renewal terms, and confirm the practical policies that impact daily life (maintenance process, key/entry procedures, and any building rules).

Openigloo combines renter-reported signals with open-data signals on building pages. Treat them as decision support, not as a substitute for written lease terms and direct confirmation from the building.
