What does “high tenant retention” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a building signal based on how consistently tenants stay over time. On this page, that retention signal is paired with the M98 bus area, so results are meant to reflect stability rather than one-off popularity.

How does the M98 bus filter affect which buildings show up?

Only buildings within the page’s M98-bus-focused match are included. Use the building page to confirm the exact stop you’ll use and the walking time from the entrance to that stop.

Are these buildings guaranteed to be rent-stabilized or have the same renewal protections?

No. This page is about retention signals, not a regulatory category. Always verify your unit’s rent type and renewal terms directly with the building or management before signing.

What should I confirm before requesting a tour or applying?

Confirm unit availability and any eligibility steps, then verify current costs (including deposit and any broker-related fees) and what’s included (utilities, storage, laundry). Also ask how maintenance requests are handled.

Does tenant retention predict maintenance quality or landlord responsiveness?

It can be a useful signal of stability, but it doesn’t guarantee current conditions. Check recent Q&A and review details on the specific building, then ask targeted questions about repairs and response times.

Which neighborhoods are trending right now in this scope?

East Village with 11,857+ buildings; Yorkville with 9,328+ buildings; Lenox Hill with 8,357+ buildings; Hell’s Kitchen with 6,943+ buildings; Kips Bay with 4,472+ buildings.

What if I don’t see the exact unit I want on the building page?

The building may still be a match for your filters even if specific units aren’t advertised at the moment. Use the building page to track updates and ask management about similar units that may be available soon.

What to check before choosing a building with high tenant retention near the M98 bus in East Harlem

Narrowed scope: buildings are selected for high tenant retention and proximity to the M98 bus corridor in East Harlem.
Before you apply, confirm the practical lease terms: rent amount, renewal language, and how renewal or re-rent processes work for your unit.
Check the full move-in cost beyond the asking rent (for example: deposit and any broker-related fees) and ask what utilities are included.
If you’re planning a quick commute, verify the walk time to your exact M98 stop and any transfer plans you rely on daily.
Use resident Q&A to ask about day-to-day issues (repairs, responsiveness, noise, package access) since retention signals don’t replace current management verification.
