Signing a lease is stressful. Maybe you\u2019re anxious to get settled in, or you want to close it before someone else puts in a stronger application. Regardless of your situation, rushing the lease signing process could be a costly mistake. We all know not to judge a book by its cover. It\u2019s crucial to get the inside scoop on your building and landlord before signing the dotted line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Before<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

At openigloo, we\u2019ve received thousands of reviews from New Yorkers who are sharing their experiences about renting in their buildings. Some expressed regret about getting reeled in by an apartment’s new renovation only to learn the landlord was a tad overbearing: \u201cIf you move into this apartment be aware of how utterly inappropriate and unprofessional the landlord is. And you may think to yourself that you really love this apartment and that it will be fine and that you\u2019ll just avoid them at all costs. But you can’t.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another renter was disappointed to learn that their building was the constant target of package theft only after they moved in: \u201cDon’t be fooled by the security cameras, as they do not work. Sadly, me and my partner only learned of this after we had some packages stolen. When we reached out to management, they indicated that the cameras had not worked in some time. I guess the criminals are aware of this.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
Read and share reviews<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Here are 3 things you should check before signing your next lease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Talk to Other Tenants or Read Building Reviews<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

No one knows what it\u2019s like to live in a building better than other tenants. If you\u2019re seeing an apartment in person, try and talk to some of the neighbors – or even better, the person who currently occupies the unit you like. They can share invaluable insight about the rent, the unit, how the building is managed, and why they\u2019re leaving. If you don\u2019t come across any neighbors, you can also read reviews online about the building and landlord. On openigloo, tenants are sharing detailed reviews and answering questions like how the building ranks in categories like cleanliness, heat, water pressure, and more. Renters are also sharing detailed comments about the pros and cons of their rental experiences. If you can\u2019t find any reviews for the building you\u2019re interested in, check other buildings in the landlord\u2019s portfolio. This will give you a sense of how they manage their other buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

2. Check City Data on the Building & Landlord<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

New York City has dozens of departments that collect data on buildings and landlords. Department of Buildings<\/a>, Department of Finance<\/a>, Housing Preservation & Development<\/a><\/span>, The Division of Housing and Community Renewal<\/span><\/a>, and the list goes on. By checking city sources, you can learn who your landlord is, and how many buildings they own if they have a history of building violations, bedbugs, litigation, and eviction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make this research process a little easier, openigloo has compiled all this data into one place. Just type any address into the openigloo app, and you can get a snapshot of all the city data that\u2019s available on that property and landlord<\/a>. One renter shared that accessing this data helped them avoid a nightmare building: \u201cI was about to sign a lease and then found out the apartments had lead paint violations that the landlord didn\u2019t disclose\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
Write a review<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. Read the Fine Print<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Never sign your lease without reading it all. Even though leases can be long, it’s vital to ensure they stay within housing laws<\/span><\/a>. A renter wrote us recently to share some of the clauses their landlord included in the lease to see if it was typical. The landlord wanted the tenant to pay for professional cleaning of the apartment 2 times per month. Additionally, the lease stipulated that the landlord could conduct inspections every 4 months and have access to the apartment 3 months before the lease termination to begin showing the unit to other tenants. While there is nothing illegal about these clauses, it\u2019s far from typical. It could result in a contentious relationship with your landlord if you were to sign without being fully aware of their expectations. If there is something in your lease that you\u2019re unsure about, you can ask the landlord, or the broker, or leverage various tenant hotlines in NYC, such as the Met Council on Housing<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Renting in NYC is not easy and signing a lease is stressful. Renting are big financial commitment, so you should have as much information as possible before signing. Be sure to check other tenant references, access available city data, and ensure your lease is fair and reasonable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those that decide to move, we encourage renters to research their prospective landlords to see what kind of rent increases they can expect to see.","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/#organization","name":"openigloo","url":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/openigloo-dark-vertical-logo.png?fit=330%2C206&ssl=1","contentUrl":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/openigloo-dark-vertical-logo.png?fit=330%2C206&ssl=1","width":330,"height":206,"caption":"openigloo"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"},"sameAs":["https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/openigloo","https:\/\/x.com\/openigloo","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/openigloo\/","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/openigloo\/","https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@openigloo_nyc"]},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/#\/schema\/person\/4c77c1531ee3a0bdd17d198e72508ac9","name":"openigloo","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/2d93846eb5aa456038edb81ecc030d317232bfa56b65ce620f69085cbc6b3008?s=96&d=identicon&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/2d93846eb5aa456038edb81ecc030d317232bfa56b65ce620f69085cbc6b3008?s=96&d=identicon&r=g","caption":"openigloo"},"url":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/author\/openigloo\/"}]}},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Before-signing-lease-Feature-img-2021.jpg?fit=1500%2C500&ssl=1","jetpack_likes_enabled":false,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pej7Yj-4i","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/227048563"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=266"}],"version-history":[{"count":26,"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1644,"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/266\/revisions\/1644"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1142"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=266"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=266"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=266"},{"taxonomy":"hashtags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.openigloo.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hashtags?post=266"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
