Openigloo surfaces building-level info plus tenant Q&A and review patterns. Use those signals to ask targeted questions about maintenance response, noise, and day-to-day conditions.

Not by itself. Pre-war status is about when the building was built. You should verify the current state (plumbing, heating, roof/water issues, mold/water remediation history) during showings and via direct questions.

Ask what maintenance issues are most common, expected timelines for repairs, how complaints are handled, whether there are recent system upgrades, and what rules apply for move-in, package delivery, and any building amenities mentioned online.

Tenant Q&A reflects experiences that may not match your exact unit or time frame. Treat it as a starting point, then confirm details with management and compare notes across multiple tenants when available.
