What does “high tenant retention” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a data-driven signal that tenants tend to stay longer in the building. Use it as a risk reducer for day-to-day experience, then verify specifics with the building because retention doesn’t control your unit’s exact terms.

How does the “1-train” filter work here?

It limits results to buildings in the Upper West Side area that are matched to proximity to the 1 train. Still, check the exact stop, walking route, and commute time during a tour.

Is high tenant retention a guarantee I’ll have the same experience?

No. Retention reflects patterns across time, but individual units and lease terms vary. Use it to prioritize questions, then confirm details about repairs, noise, and management with the building.

What should I look for in tenant Q&A for a building like this?

Focus on recurring items that usually affect staying: maintenance turnaround, management communication, package handling, and how problems are resolved. Single posts can be misleading, so look for consistent themes.

Does being near the 1 train affect building policies (noise, access, delivery)?

It can. Transit-adjacent areas may have more delivery/foot-traffic patterns, and buildings can differ in how they manage entrances, packages, and noise. Confirm building-specific rules and expectations during your visit.

How should I compare the total monthly cost, not just asking rent?

Two buildings can look similar on rent but differ in the full monthly picture. Check what you pay for utilities, any amenity-related charges, and move-in costs like security deposit and potential broker/administrative fees.
