Is tenant retention the same as “better building quality”?

Not necessarily. High retention can reflect stability, management practices, or unit value, but it can also be influenced by lease setup and tenant mix. Use it as a starting signal, then confirm current conditions with the building.

What should I ask the landlord or super before signing for a unit near the M5?

Ask about the specific stop you’ll use, typical noise/traffic at your building entrance, maintenance turnaround, and how packages and common areas are handled. Also confirm any move-in scheduling constraints.

Do I need to worry about bus noise or street activity?

It can vary by block and by how your unit faces the street. Even with M5 proximity, ask about orientation (front vs. interior), window fit, and any known issues at the building.

How reliable are building signals compared with what I’ll experience?

Use Openigloo’s reviews and Q&A as context, then validate the current details with the building. Building-level signals summarize patterns, but individual units and time periods can differ.
