    Review Summary for 147 Starr Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 147 Starr Street in Brooklyn describe it as having a great location in a desirable Bushwick area with friendly neighbors and access to nearby parks and transit. However, tenants consistently report severe issues including poor cleanliness, ineffective garbage management, rampant pest presence, persistent mold problems, inadequate heating, and low water pressure. Management and ownership receive harsh criticism for unresponsiveness and neglect, leaving maintenance and essential services delayed or unmet. Noise levels and insulation also pose challenges. Rent is reportedly high, sometimes unjustifiably so, in a building with significant upkeep deficiencies. Prospective renters should weigh location benefits against substantial building management and maintenance concerns.

    The landlord is over-charging everyone. The building is fully rent stabilized.

    The hot water goes out constantly and the building is so cold.

    The city needs to take over this building ASAP
    Advice to owner:
    Quit overcharging
