Openigloo combines tenant reviews and Q&A with data signals that help you spot patterns. Treat them as decision support, not a substitute for getting answers from the building directly.

Ask the managing agent to explain how renewal would be handled for your lease term, what increase schedule they use (if any), and whether any actions would affect renewal eligibility. Keep any promises in writing.

Yes. The filter focuses on building-level protections, not your total move-in cost. Request the full monthly and move-in breakdown (deposit, broker fee if applicable, and any utility responsibilities) before you sign.

Compare unit-level factors (layout, floor, light, included amenities), then use reviews and tenant Q&A for building habits like maintenance timelines and communication. Follow up with targeted questions tied to what you read.
