What does “high tenant retention” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a renter-behavior signal used to identify buildings where tenants are more likely to stay over time. It’s meant to help you start with buildings that have steadier occupancy, not to predict an individual lease outcome.

How does the SIM4C bus filter work?

The SIM4C component narrows results to buildings matched to the SIM4C corridor area in the East Village. Walking routes, entrance locations, and schedules still vary, so confirm your specific commute during a tour.

How many buildings are currently in the East Village SIM4C + high-retention results?

There are 26+ eligible buildings right now in this scope.

Are these buildings rent-stabilized or subject to specific tenant protections?

This page doesn’t filter by rent regulation status. If you need a specific regulatory category, use the relevant filter(s) and then review building-by-building details on Openigloo and your lease documents.

Can I rely on retention data alone when choosing a building?

Use retention as a starting point, not the deciding factor. Ask about current management practices, maintenance SLAs, renewal terms, and any recent policy changes before you commit.

What should I verify before signing a lease even if the building is on this list?

Confirm the full monthly cost (deposit and any upfront fees, broker fees if applicable, and when utilities start), plus practical rules like move-in scheduling, package handling, and renewal procedures.

Which neighborhoods are trending in this scope right now?

What to check before choosing a building with high tenant retention near the SIM4C bus in East Village

Expect a shorter shortlist: the filters combine high tenant retention with a SIM4C bus-area match, so you’re looking at buildings renters tend to stay in.
Check commute fit in person: “near SIM4C” can mean different walking times depending on where you start and where the entrance is.
Use the Q&A to surface recurring themes (noise, maintenance responsiveness, package handling, lease-renewal patterns) before you schedule tours.
Confirm move-in costs and timing: ask about deposit, any broker-related fees, and when utilities start; total monthly cost can differ from the asking rent.
Before signing, verify the renewal/retention story with current terms—retention signals don’t replace what’s in your specific lease.
