Is tenant retention the same as rent affordability or tenant protections?

Not necessarily. Retention can reflect management quality and day-to-day stability, but it doesn’t automatically guarantee affordability, rent-regulation status, or tenant protection eligibility. Verify rent terms and lease conditions directly.

What should I ask the building if tenant retention looks strong in reviews?

Ask about maintenance SLAs, how requests are tracked, renewal practices for your lease end date, and whether anything is changing (renovations, staffing, or policies). Look for alignment between renter notes and current operations.

Can the filters miss buildings that would still work for me?

Yes. Filters are a shortlist, not a complete map of every option. If you have a strong preference (doorman vs. walk-up, elevator availability, specific unit features), compare both matching and nearby buildings.

Where should I double-check details before signing?

Use Openigloo for building context and renter notes, then confirm unit-specific items with the landlord or managing agent: included utilities, fees and deposits, move-in timing, and any requirements tied to your household.
