Review Summary for 390 2 Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent tenant reviews for 390 2nd Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215, highlight a mixed experience. While the building boasts attractive renovations, a great neighborhood, and responsive owners in certain units, complaints revolve around disrespectful and greedy landlords, poor communication, construction disturbances, theft, and pest issues by other tenants. There are mentions of withheld deposits, lack of maintenance, and unaddressed tenant concerns, leading to an overall negative view of the property management. Pros include clean units, spacious rooms, and convenient location, but the presence of problematic landlords overshadows these positives, urging potential renters to exercise caution.

Worst landlord I've ever had.
Former Tenant
Pros:
I only saw 1 roach.
Cons:
Immense hostility from landlord whenever anything had to be fixed, was at certain points threatened to be sued. Eventually got too scared to email him about any issues I was having with heat, etc, which I guess was what he wanted. Do not rent from Brian or Jesse Elgart at Francine Realty - I have had wonderful experiences with basically every other landlord I've had (and never was late on rent) so the problem wasn't me.
