Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for 29 Buffalo Avenue reveal a mixed tenant experience. Positively, the building is noted for cleanliness, well-maintained common areas, strong heating, and prompt management responsiveness, with some tenants appreciating the quiet and good neighbors. However, significant concerns involve inconsistent heating availability, unclean hallways, poor garbage management, and a lack of transparency or communication from ownership. Several renters mention landlord-related conflicts and questionable management practices, including delayed repairs and disputes over deposits. Suggestions include adding storage options and improving outdoor space access. Prospective renters should carefully document interactions due to reported management issues despite some aspects being well maintained.

Reviews

Former tenant·1 week ago

glad I am not living there anymore

Pros

brick walls in some rooms

Cons

The company does not provide the name of a representative, address, or telephone number. Did not return the deposit and only turned on the heat in the fall after we filed a complaint with the city.

Former tenant·Over 4 years ago

Landlord obsessed w/his building.

Pros

Area was decent.

Cons

Cold (I insulate the windows during the winter), concrete steps, owner hardly swept outside and never cleaned the hallways. Moses Cowan was weird and acted like an obsessed boyfriend. Worried about the one male who visited me regularly. Called cops on me because I installed WiFi during Covid 2020.

Advice to the owners

Document EVERYTHING. I am keeping emails, notifications, and old text (I do not communicate via cellphone since he called the cops on me). He set a court date with myself, and other tenants that moved out due to his harassment. No other tenants are in the building with me. BEWARE AND DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. Save pictures and all correspondence.
