What to check before for buildings with high tenant retention in Washington Heights
- Start with the high-retention tag, then read recent renter notes to see what “staying” looks like in practice (maintenance responsiveness, communication, and quiet hours).
- Confirm the current lease terms directly with the building: renewal process, typical move-in dates, and any conditions for access to amenities.
- Verify the full monthly cost beyond rent (including broker/fee requirements, deposits, and utility responsibilities) so you can budget for the total move-in and ongoing spend.
- If you’re moving with a pet, ask about written pet policies, any required documentation, and whether there are weight/count/breed limits before applying.
- Use Openigloo to shortlist buildings, then request the unit’s specific details (floor plan, layout constraints, and current condition) rather than relying only on building-level signals.
