What does “high tenant retention” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a building-level signal derived from renter behavior patterns in the Openigloo dataset. The goal is to surface buildings where tenants tend to renew or stay longer, but it doesn’t replace confirming policies and unit-specific conditions with the building.

What does the SIM7-bus filter include for West Village buildings?

It limits results to buildings near the SIM7 route in the West Village area. Distances can vary by block, so confirm the walk time from the specific unit location to your typical stop.

How should I use both filters together without assuming everything is identical?

Treat the combination as a shortlist: retention narrows the set by renter experience, while the SIM7 filter narrows by commute. You still need to compare unit and building details that can differ even within the same building.

Does high retention guarantee my lease will be renewed?

No. Retention indicates patterns across the building, not a contract guarantee. Ask management about renewal practices and the factors that affect renewals for your unit type.

What should I verify before signing a lease in these buildings?

Confirm maintenance procedures, any recent policy changes, utility responsibility, laundry and package-room rules, and whether there are building-wide restrictions that could affect your move-in timeline.

Are the building signals based only on current availability?

No. The page focuses on buildings matching your filters, but the underlying indicators and renter feedback can include information from prior renters. Still check what’s true right now with management for your specific unit.
