What does “high retention” mean on Openigloo for West Chelsea buildings?

It’s an Openigloo filter built to surface buildings where tenants tend to stay longer than average. Treat it as a signal of stability, not a promise—confirm specifics during your application and lease review.

How should I interpret “near the M12 bus” for this West Chelsea search?

It’s a location filter tied to the M12 corridor area, but “near” can still differ by block. Confirm your route timing, stops you’ll use most, and whether the building is convenient for late-night travel.

Do retention signals replace reading the reviews or asking questions?

No. Use retention to narrow your list, then read the building notes and tenant Q&A to understand what people actually experienced (maintenance timing, responsiveness, and day-to-day conditions).

What should I check before signing if retention is high?

Look closely at the lease terms (renewal language and rent-change process), required notices, and move-in costs. Even with good stability, details like deposits, utilities setup, and paperwork timelines still affect your total cost.

Where does Openigloo’s data come from and how current is it?
