    Review Summary for 443 State Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 443 STATE STREET in Brooklyn reveal major issues with the management company, EM Holding, being unresponsive and toxic, leading to the depletion of amenities and unaddressed tenant concerns. Tenants highlight poor communication channels, inconsistent heating, and unreliable hot water. The super may be efficient, but the overall management's lack of professionalism and care is a significant drawback. Suggestions include changing the management company or selling the building. Renters stress the need for a more responsive and attentive approach from the owners to maintain the building's appeal and functionality.

    Terrible Management, beautiful building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - location is great
    - apartments are beautiful
    Cons:
    - super is a jerk and doesn't do anything
    - many amenities were taken away during my first 6 months (like bike storage)
    - the management company (EM Holding) is toxic and gaslights their tenants
    Advice to owner:
    Get a new management company they will drive your building into the ground. EM Holding will increase your exposure to litigation and cheap everything out until you need to do massive renovations. Do everything in your power to start your own management company for your beautiful buildings.

    Unresponsive
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    I think it’s cute and the neighbors are nice
    Cons:
    Management and owners never respond. You have to incessantly communicate with them in archaic ways just to get a little action. Super keeps the place nice and clean but if you have a bigger issue, you need management/ owner help and you’re basically screwed. Also, hilariously, they will not give out an email address. You need to call and speak to a receptionist, hope to hear from the landlord, and then PRAY FOR A MIRACLE to hear from the owner. Oh but they kindly allow you to write them a letter. To which they never respond... it’s an evil joke.
    Advice to owner:
    Well what do you think my advice would be? Respond to your tenants when there is a major issue.
