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

It’s a data-driven signal on Openigloo that aims to capture buildings where tenants tend to stay longer. It’s not a promise that every unit will be the same, so you should still verify conditions directly with the building.

How do the “B train” and “high-retention” filters work together?

The page combines both: buildings must fit the South Harlem scope and match the multi-filter pair (near the B train, plus the high-retention signal). That reduces the set to buildings most likely to match your commute and tenant-stay preference.

Does a higher tenant retention signal mean the building is guaranteed to have better management or maintenance?

Not guaranteed. Retention can reflect multiple factors (unit type, price changes, or tenant preferences). Treat it as a reason to dig deeper: review rated buildings’ information and ask targeted questions during showings.

What should I ask before applying or signing?

Ask about lease length and renewal timing, how repairs are handled day-to-day, any known recurring issues, and how costs are structured (deposit, required fees, and utilities responsibilities).

Is there anything I should be careful about when using retention as a decision factor?

Yes. Retention is based on building-level patterns, while your experience can vary by unit, floor, and household. Also, conditions can change, so rely on recent information and direct confirmation.
