Review Summary for 105 Vanderveer Street
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Recent reviews of 105 Vanderveer Street, Brooklyn, present a mixed picture. Tenants appreciate the building's relatively quiet environment, spacious apartments with large windows and hardwood floors, and amenities like a gym, laundry facilities, and a courtyard. Cleanliness is generally rated well, with good garbage management noted. However, management responsiveness varies, often described as slow or unhelpful, particularly regarding repairs and pest control. Some report persistent pest and rodent issues, maintenance delays, laundry machine malfunctions, and security concerns like package theft. The building is not rent stabilized. Prospective renters should weigh the good facilities against management challenges and occasional noise or neighbor disturbances.

Pleasant New Building
Former Tenant
Pros:
In a fairly quiet if odd area. Big windows. Building cleaning service is excellent and pleasant. Nice gym and laundry facilities.
Cons:
Management takes a while to respond to repair tickets. Occasionally the neighbors like to throw a maddening rave.

Decent building to live in
Former Tenant
Pros:
Pretty quiet building aside from the occasional music from outside on the weekends. Maintenance responds pretty quick to requests and although they don’t come on the day/time you put on the request form they will text you and you can reschedule. There’s people who come by every Sunday to clean the hallways, laundry room, and gym.
Cons:
Dishwasher was moldy when I moved in and I had to replace the drip trays for the stove as they had rusted completely with giant holes in them. The laundry room machines operate on a card that you can only reload with cash and sometimes a few of the machines are out of service which can be inconvenient because the surrounding buildings also use the room.
