Does high tenant retention guarantee I’ll like the building?

No. It describes a pattern of tenant staying, not your specific experience. You should still verify unit conditions, noise, maintenance response, and lease terms for the apartment you’re considering.

What should I confirm before signing a lease even if the building scores well?

Confirm the exact lease terms (renewal and any restrictions), deposits and move-in fees, utility responsibilities, and any building policies that could affect your day-to-day (quiet hours, package rules, or access requirements).

How does Openigloo use reviews or tenant Q&A here?

Openigloo aggregates renter feedback and building signals to help you compare buildings faster. Use it to spot common themes, then ask the building direct questions to confirm details that may vary by unit or time.

Is “near transit” based on walking distance, travel time, or both?

This page uses the near-transit filter within Openigloo’s building-matching data. Because commute needs vary, validate by testing your route and timing to your workplace or school.
