    Review Summary for 141 Troutman Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 141 Troutman Street, Brooklyn, NY 11206 highlight severe management issues, including unresponsive owners, poor cleanliness, and pest problems. Tenants express frustrations over maintenance delays, mold concerns, and noise disturbances from nearby establishments. Despite some positive aspects like central heat, good garbage management, and decent water pressure, the general sentiment leans towards dissatisfaction. Suggestions include addressing noise complaints promptly, improving the living conditions, and showing more care towards tenant concerns.

    Do not move here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Affordable, good neighborhood/close to M/J and L
    Cons:
    The owner does not care about this building at all. There is mold in the pipes that does not go away, no matter how many times we treat it, the problem is so wide spread and in all the apartments. Pest are not common but not well managed either, have seen house centipedes in the apartment and hallways. Moving into the apartment, it was dirty and gross, the tenants before left it a wreck and management did not care. You can hear everything, being so close to KeyBar, you will be able to hear the music and what your neighbors are up to. The insulation is bad, having big windows is great for natural light but horrible in the winter cold. For over a month the front door to the building was broken and it wasn’t until someone threaten to report, did they finally fix it, literally the door couldn’t close and the handle kept coming right off. II know it might seem worth it for rent on the cheaper side but this place is a mess.
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the mold problem. Seriously. You already have enough lawsuits on your hands.
