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

It’s a building-level signal intended to reflect steadier tenancy over time. It doesn’t guarantee that any specific unit will stay available or that your lease renewal will be frictionless—use it as a shortlist, then verify with the building for your exact unit.

What does “near the M5 bus” include for these buildings?

Buildings are grouped to the M5 bus corridor in Manhattan. Still, stop access can vary by block and building entrance—check walking distance and typical route reliability for the times you’ll commute.

How does Openigloo help me evaluate these buildings beyond the filter?

Openigloo adds renter-first context (what tenants report), plus building-page details that help you compare. Use it to look for consistent themes, cross-check policies that affect renters, and decide what to ask before touring or submitting an application.

Do high-retention buildings always have the same lease terms or policies?

No. Retention is about how tenants tend to stay, not one fixed policy. Before signing, confirm the lease length you’ll be offered, renewal expectations, and any building-specific requirements or timelines that apply to your apartment.

Are there extra fees or restrictions I should confirm before applying?

Yes. Even when retention is high, buildings can have different requirements for move-in documentation, packages, and utilities setup. Confirm the full cost (including broker fee and deposit) and any rules that affect your routine before you commit.
