What does “high tenant retention” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a building-level retention signal based on tenant move-in/move-out patterns in our dataset. Higher retention generally indicates fewer long gaps between tenant turnovers, but it doesn’t predict how a specific unit will feel day to day.

How does the M21 bus filter work?

It limits eligible buildings to those near the M21 bus route so you can prioritize commute convenience. Still confirm the walking route and timing from the building to the stops you actually use.

Does high retention mean the building is rent-stabilized or rent-controlled?

No. Retention is about tenant stay patterns, not regulatory status. If you need a specific rent-regulation setup, filter for that explicitly and confirm the lease terms with the building.

Can I rely on tenant Q&A and review ratings alone?

They’re a useful signal, but renters’ experiences can vary by unit and timing. Use them alongside hard checks: current maintenance practices, any scheduled work, and how management handles requests.

What should I ask the building before applying for a unit?

Ask about maintenance response times, how repairs are tracked, noise expectations, laundry access, and move-in timelines. If anything seems unclear, get the answers in writing (or via a dated record) before you pay deposits.

Does this page guarantee that apartments will be available when I apply?

No. This page is about buildings that match the filter pair. Availability can still change by unit, floor, and date—always verify what’s currently on offer for the specific move-in window.
