What does “high-retention” mean on this Openigloo view?

It’s an Openigloo building signal designed to surface buildings where tenants tend to stay longer. Use it as a starting filter, then confirm the current experience with renter Q&A and what the building tells you directly.

How should I think about the “near the L train” filter?

“Near” is based on the building’s proximity to the L train corridor, but the real experience depends on which station you use and how far you walk. Double-check the station entrance you’d likely use.

Does high tenant retention mean the building is rent-stabilized or has tenant protections?

No. This page focuses on retention behavior and transit proximity. Tenant protections depend on the building’s specific regulatory status and lease setup, which you should confirm directly.

What should I verify before applying, even if retention is high?

Always confirm the complete monthly cost (including deposits/fees and which utilities are included), the lease term and renewal expectations, and any building policies that affect your move-in timeline.

Where does Openigloo’s building information come from?
