    Review Summary for 575 Classon Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenants have had mixed experiences at 575 Classon Avenue. Two reviews highlighted severe issues with the owner's unethical practices, illegal conversions, and lack of responsiveness, advising against renting. On the contrary, a positive review emphasized the building's cleanliness, prime location, affordability, and responsive management. Limited amenities and potential noise during rush hours were minor concerns. Despite differing perspectives, the positive review praised the overall convenience and comfort of the building, making it a viable option for those seeking a well-maintained, affordable living space in a bustling neighborhood like Brooklyn.

    Moses Cowan is a bad faith actor
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    None. Illegal slumlord runs this place and will steal from you. run!!!
    Cons:
    Moses Cowan induced me into signing a lease I never received a copy of for an apartment he had illegally converted. He then harassed me, accused me of false damages, refused to grant me a walkthrough upon move out, and then withheld my deposit. He has racked up over 30 complaints in the NYC department of buildings. He is frequently sued for his horrible behavior. Stay away from this slum lord!!
    Advice to owner:
    Have fun being destroyed in court :p

    Don’t live there - Owner will scam the tenants
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nothing except for the location.
    Cons:
    For anyone who’s is reading the reviews on here, the “good” reviews are all fabricated by the landlord himself. I was a former tenant and was scammed out of two months of security deposit. I went to court with him and in the process meeting a few former tenants who all had similar experience as me. This guy lives in the lower levels of the building and will fabricate “evidence” of damages you have “caused” after you move out. Furthermore, the building is illegally converted into multiple units without filing properly with the department of buildings, so if any kind of emergency should happen, your safety would not be guaranteed. One last thing, he would not let you install an AC in the unit unless you pay more. Imagine how hot it could get in those small units.
    Advice to owner:
    Stop being a prick.
