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

It’s a tenant-retention signal used to flag buildings where tenants tend to stay. Use it as a screening metric, then still confirm policies and day-to-day operations with the building directly.

How does the “M-train” filter work here?

It narrows the search to buildings in the East Village area that match your M-train proximity/route scope. Treat it as a commute-focused filter, not a guarantee of door-to-door travel time.

Are these 127+ buildings currently advertising apartments on Openigloo?

This page’s count reflects the buildings that match the high-retention + M-train scope. Use the building pages to see which units are currently available and what the current asking terms look like.

What should I verify before signing a lease?

Confirm the full monthly and move-in costs (broker fee, deposit, any non-refundable fees), utility responsibilities, lease start and renewal dates, and any building rules that affect your move (entry, packages, and noise policies).

Does high tenant retention mean there are no problems?

No. Tenant retention can correlate with fewer issues, but unit-level conditions and management practices can vary. Use Openigloo Q&A and still ask targeted questions about repairs, response times, and current building operations.
