Is this search limited to apartments that are available today?

This page is driven by the pre-war + school-area filters. Availability can vary by building and unit, so check the building page for what’s currently advertised.

What should I ask about with pre-war buildings?

Ask about heating and hot-water performance, plumbing condition, elevator reliability (if your unit requires it), pest prevention and maintenance history, and any upcoming capital work that could affect your lease costs or experience.

How does Openigloo help me vet these buildings beyond photos?

Openigloo surfaces renter-first signals from reviews and tenant Q&A, plus open-data signals where available, so you can ask more specific questions during showings.

Do pre-war buildings have risks I should assume without checking?

Some older buildings have higher variability in maintenance and systems. Treat filters as a starting point: confirm the condition of the specific unit and building in writing or directly with leasing before you sign.

What fees or costs should I verify before applying?

Verify the full move-in and monthly picture: utilities included vs. separate, deposits, broker or application fees (if any), and any recurring building fees that may apply to your lease.
