What does “high tenant retention” mean for these Lower East Side buildings?

It’s a tenant-behavior signal used by Openigloo to identify buildings where residents tend to stay longer. It does not guarantee any specific outcome for your lease, so confirm details like maintenance response and renewal practices with the building.

How does the M15-SBS bus factor into the results?

This page is limited to buildings near the M15-SBS bus along your selected Lower East Side scope. Still, check walking time and route changes for the exact stop you’d use.

What should I verify before signing a lease even if tenant retention is high?

Ask about unit turnover standards (how quickly units are prepared), maintenance turnaround expectations, pest-prevention processes, and what happens during repairs. Also confirm the exact renewal and rent-increase language in your lease packet.

Are the building counts on this page “at least” numbers?

Yes. The live eligible scope is shown as 131+, meaning there may be more matches as data updates.

Where does Openigloo’s information come from?

Openigloo combines renter-submitted signals and building-level info, including structured open-data signals where available. Use the page as a starting point, then verify the key items directly with management.

Does high retention mean the building is always rent-stable or low-fee?

No. Tenant retention describes staying patterns, not pricing guarantees. Fees, deposit requirements, and utility arrangements can vary, so you should compare the full monthly cost details before committing.

What to check before choosing a building with high tenant retention near the M15-SBS bus in Lower East Side

Focus on consistency: high tenant retention can be a useful signal, but you should still confirm unit condition, maintenance response, and move-in timeline directly with the building.
Verify the commute match: check the exact walking route to the M15-SBS stop and whether service patterns change during hours that matter to you.
Confirm lease terms and renewal details in writing (especially around rent increases and any major building policies) before paying deposits.
If you’re comparing multiple buildings, use the same request checklist for each: included utilities, broker fee expectations, deposit amounts, and any non-refundable move-in charges.
