What to check before choosing a pre-war building near the S78 bus in Clifton

  • Confirm the building’s pre-war details with the managing agent and review the unit’s exact layout, heating setup, and ventilation during a showing.
  • Use the S78 corridor as your baseline for commute time, then verify walking time to the stop at your preferred hours.
  • Check for practical constraints common in older stock: elevator reliability (if applicable), laundry access, hot-water capacity, and any remodel history.
  • If you’re using open-data signals, still ask for the newest documentation directly (current rules, fees, and any recent policy changes).
  • Before signing, request a total monthly cost estimate including deposits and any move-in fees, not just the asking rent.
