    Review Summary for 70 Wyckoff Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 70 Wyckoff Avenue praise the building's loft-style spacious apartments, high ceilings, and strong community, especially among families. Residents like the quiet atmosphere and helpful supers. However, concerns about new ownership include poor communication, significant rent hikes—even during the pandemic—lack of lease renewal transparency, and subpar garbage management. Some complain about maintenance lapses, mold issues, and intrusive security measures. While management responsiveness is mixed, pest control and cleanliness receive varied feedback. Rent stabilization status is unclear for some units. Overall, renters value the unique building features and neighbors but urge improved management practices and fairer rent policies.

    Loved my home till I was kicked out
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Amazing neighborhood, building community, and apartment space
    Cons:
    New ownership is not good at notifying residents when changes are made. We were also not allowed to renew our lease. After 4 years of always paying on time and keeping the apartment in top shape we were not allowed to renew our lease. They only told us the landlord did not want to renew us...nothing else. Not covered under good cause eviction due to a refiling of the occupancy report in 2016. Truly loved my life here and am so sad it is coming to an end due to management that does not want to invest in the community already here. Also they promise roof access and maid service but the building is not cleaned on a regular bases and the stairwells lock you inside so you cannot access the roof
    Advice to owner:
    Allow tenants with good standing to be allowed to stay in the building

    Great building, location, neighbor, community, but new ownership is concerning.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Authentic loft building (former textile factory) with good unit layouts, really great tenant community (especially for young families with kids), courtyard with garden, new laundry machines.
    Cons:
    Trash/recycling management isn’t great, the building common areas aren’t kept clean unless complaints are made, and vehicles are being parked in the courtyard. Most significantly, some tenants’ rent is being increased substantially and leases aren’t being renewed for unknown reasons.
    Advice to owner:
    Provide more clarity and transparency to tenants, with notice BEFORE changes are made. Work harder to retain good tenants than seek higher-paying ones. Invest in the community that is already here, and it will pay off.
