    Review Summary for 443 East 88 Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    The building at 443 East 88 Street offers a great location with friendly neighbors and attractive renovated units featuring in-unit laundry and good light. However, tenants consistently report serious management issues, including poor owner responsiveness, ongoing disruptive construction, and inadequate maintenance. Recurring problems with heating, hot water, pest infestations (rats and mice), garbage management, and water pressure are frequent complaints. While some appreciate the safe, quiet environment and nearby amenities, many renters advise against the building due to neglect by management and unresolved pest/control issues. Improvements in communication, pest control, and building upkeep would significantly enhance the living experience.

    Great building, worst management imaginable
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The location is great and the light is stunning in the upper units. Neighbors are friendly.
    Cons:
    Brighton bought this building after my first year here and it has been an unimaginable nightmare. Consistently no heat, no hot water, and several of the apartments are under construction. The contractors have ruined the building, created tons of dust, and are here at all hours of the day and night including weekends. The super keeps changing, management doesn't have a valid phone number half the time. The noise from the construction is so loud and the lack of hot water are literally making me feel crazy. If you see Brighton anywhere near your lease- run in the other direction.
    Advice to owner:
    Find a different profession idk if this is for you.

    Great location, clean building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Monthly pest control during summer
    Easy to rent, no proof of employment was needed (which is honestly crazy)
    Cons:
    Younger tenants, very loud at all hours
    Almost no contact/ response from super or property manager, luckily there were no major issues hopefully they would respond if there was
    Advice to owner:
    Ensure property manager is responding to tenants emails
