Does “high tenant retention” mean the building is problem-free?

No. High retention usually indicates tenants tend to stay, but it does not guarantee individual unit conditions. Verify current policies, maintenance workflows, and any recent changes by asking the building and reading tenant Q&A.

What should I ask the building before touring or applying?

Ask what changed most recently (repairs, management, rent policy), how maintenance requests are handled, typical response times, and what documentation is required for your application.

Are the signals based on current conditions?

Openigloo aggregates ongoing information, but any data can lag real-world conditions. Use the signals to shortlist, then confirm details directly with the building and your future unit’s specifics.

How do I use Openigloo beyond the filter results?
