Does high tenant retention guarantee the building will work for my situation?

No. High retention is a useful signal, but it doesn’t replace unit-level checks. Always confirm your lease terms, move-in costs, and any building rules that apply to your specific apartment.

What should I verify before paying any fees or applying?

Confirm the exact application process, deposit amounts, whether a broker fee applies, and what utilities are included versus billed separately. Also verify the availability date so there are no surprises after approval.

How should I use Openigloo to compare these buildings?

Start with the shortlist created by the filters, then read the resident Q&A and look at patterns across rated buildings. If a detail affects your daily routine (noise, package handling, responsiveness), ask directly in the building’s questions.

Are there any neighborhood-level things to watch for near the subway?

Proximity to major lines can affect noise, street activity, and building logistics like deliveries and entry screening. Use a few targeted questions and compare tours at similar times of day.
