    Review Summary for 484 Harman Street
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 484 Harman Street in Brooklyn, NY paint a concerning picture. Tenants consistently mention issues like lack of hot water for extended periods, black mold, pest problems, unaddressed maintenance issues, and unreturned security deposits. The management's slow responsiveness, poor building upkeep, and failed amenities like the doorman and laundry room add to the discontent. Overall, residents advise against living here due to the subpar living conditions and lack of owner care. Major improvements in maintenance, pest control, and responsiveness are needed to make this building a livable option.

    Avoid at all costs
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It was in a good location
    Cons:
    We didn't have hot water for 1.5 months and got ignored repeatedly for that
    Black mold in the apartment that wasn't addressed
    Large holes in the walls for 8+ months (only got patched up to do showings)
    Mice and cockroaches (normal I guess tho)
    Not getting security deposit returned
    Advice to owner:
    They do not care about the tenants. Even with this myriad of issues they did not do any renovations or improvements and still raised rent by $1,000. Not having hot water for over a month and a half was brutal and still we are not getting a security deposit back.

    Do NOT live here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    I guess the rooftop is a perk, but does not make up for how terrible this building is is.
    Cons:
    The building is dirty and smells wet and moldy, black mold in the windows, landlords response is slow, virtual doorman failed repeatedly so locked outside, laundry room disgusting and sometimes machines do not work. Poor management, we did not get our security deposit back even though we reached out multiple times asking for a justifiable reason.
    Advice to owner:
    Take care of your building and take care of your tenants.
