    Review Summary for 916 Prospect Place
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 916 Prospect Place in Brooklyn reveal a mix of appealing features and significant drawbacks. Tenants appreciate the spacious units, high ceilings, exposed brick, and strong water pressure, indicating attractive apartment details and a good location. However, persistent issues with cleanliness, dated and deteriorating fixtures, and a recurring mouse problem have caused dissatisfaction. Maintenance and pest control are often seen as inadequate, with slow or ineffective responses from landlords. The rent payment process and landlord communication have also been criticized for being unreliable and unprofessional. Overall, while the building offers character and space, management and upkeep concerns detract from the living experience.

    Unethical landlords
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Large units with exposed brick in a great neighborhood
    Cons:
    Upkeep and maintenance are a joke, the landlords use paper records that aren’t accurately maintained (accused us of being late on rent multiple times when we were not). My unit was never cleaned before I moved in and we had multiple issues with leaks, mice and more during the time I lived there. Years of built up grime all over the apartment. Repairs are poorly done and don’t address the root causes of issues. Landlords are just trying to get as much money out of you as possible and don’t put any back into the building. Kept a portion of our security deposit for unpainted walls when there was visible spackle and holes everywhere when we moved in. Unable to get in touch with the landlords or the super in emergencies, phones were only answered between 9am and 1pm on weekdays and they “don’t do” emails. No notifications when the super was out of town... the list goes on and on.
    Advice to owner:
    Actually take care of your buildings and treat your tenants with respect and care.
