What does “high-retention” mean on this page?

It’s a tenant-retention filter based on observed patterns in building activity on Openigloo. The goal is to surface buildings where renters tend to stay, but it does not replace questions about renewals, maintenance, or what life is like in your unit.

How does the “M9 bus” part work for Chinatown buildings?

This page is scoped to Chinatown and prioritizes buildings located near the M9 bus route. Transit proximity can still differ by a few blocks, so confirm the walk from your target unit entrance or corner.

How many buildings match these filters right now?

There are 35+ buildings on this page that match the Chinatown scope plus the high-retention and M9-bus filter pair.

Does high tenant retention guarantee a good lease or low fees?

No. Even in buildings with high retention, fees, deposit requirements, and lease terms can vary by unit and by management. Ask for the current fee schedule, move-in dates, and renewal terms before committing.

What should I check before scheduling a tour or signing?

Verify unit-specific details (rent, layout, included utilities), ask about application/approval timing, confirm any restrictions that affect move-in (storage, laundry access, bike rules), and clarify maintenance response expectations with the super or leasing office.

Are the Openigloo signals enough to make a decision?

They are a starting point. Use the page to compare buildings, then confirm everything that affects your move—especially costs beyond asking rent, lease start/end dates, and any building policies you rely on daily.
