    Review Summary for 20-20 Seaman Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenants at 20-20 Seaman Avenue appreciate the well-maintained, spacious, and rent-stabilized units. Some noise from neighbors and slow maintenance responses were noted. While the building has good natural light and amenities like laundry and an elevator, residents reported occasional roach problems and maintenance issues, like elevator malfunctions and leaks. The location's proximity to a subway and park is a plus. Suggestions include updating amenities and being more responsive to tenant requests. Despite minor drawbacks, the majority approve of the owner and recommend staying in this rent-stabilized building.

    Great old building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Well maintained, spacious, rent stabilized.
    Cons:
    Some neighbors are a little loud depending on the floor. Also, even though maintenance tends to be on top of everything, he’s kind of slow responding to requests.

    What you’d expect for the price
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Large and spacious apartments with good natural light (depending on unit). Laundry in basement. Elevator. Live in super. Flexible landlords when it comes to doing DIYs, as long as you ask for permission first.
    Cons:
    Roach problem (we had to hire our own exterminators to fix it once and for all). Things tend to break in the building, like the elevator, front door latch, and we had a major leak.

    Be responsive to tenant requests
