What does “high tenant retention” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a renter-behavior signal that focuses on buildings where tenants tend to stay. Use it to prioritize your shortlist, then validate current conditions with the building directly.

How does the “M2 bus” part of the filter work?

It narrows the eligible buildings to those located near the M2 bus corridor. You should still confirm the exact stop(s) you’ll use and the walk time in different traffic and weather.

Do high-retention buildings always have rent-stabilization or tenant protections?

Not necessarily. This page is about retention and transit proximity. If you need specific regulatory status or protections, verify the lease and ask the building about current rent-regulation details.

What Openigloo data should I rely on when comparing buildings here?

Start with the building’s rating among rated buildings and the tenant Q&A on the building page. Then confirm essentials like repairs, move-in requirements, and any renewal process details with management.

Is retention the same as “no issues” or “no complaints”?

No. Retention is a useful indicator, but it doesn’t eliminate concerns like maintenance delays, noise, or building access rules. Read the tenant Q&A and ask follow-up questions during your tour.

How should I plan around deposits, fees, and utilities?

Even if a building fits the high-retention + M2 bus filters, the full monthly cost depends on what’s required at move-in and how utilities are billed. Request the cost breakdown before committing.
