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

It’s a filter built from tenant retention signals captured for buildings in Greenwich Village. The goal is to surface buildings where renters tend to stay, so you can start from stability rather than just asking price.

How does the “W-train” part of the filter work?

It targets buildings that are near the W subway line. Use it to keep your commute convenient, but still confirm walking time and routes from the exact address shown for each building.

Does a high-retention signal mean the building is problem-free?

No. Retention can reflect many factors, including management style and unit matching, but it doesn’t rule out maintenance issues or policy changes. Use the building’s details and ask targeted questions before you sign.

What should I ask the super or management before applying?

Ask about maintenance response times, how complaints are handled, how renewals are typically handled, and what the building does to prevent recurring issues. If you’re seeing mixed experiences in Q&A, ask for specifics.
