    Review Summary for 1360 Ocean Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 1360 Ocean Avenue reveal a building with decent water pressure, timely garbage removal, and some responsive management, especially regarding maintenance and heating. Residents appreciate the solid prewar structure with high ceilings and a generally quiet environment paired with friendly neighbors. However, recurring issues include occasional basement water leakage, pest infestations in laundry areas, and unaddressed water damage and mold affecting top-floor units. Cleanliness, particularly in shared spaces like elevators and basements, is inconsistent. Rent stabilization status is unclear, causing confusion and concern. Reports also highlight challenges with certain problematic neighbors and lease complexities involving condo management, suggesting a need for better oversight and clearer communication.

    So far so good
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Water is good, Heating is proper, Garbage is taken out on time, Washing Machine on building
    Cons:
    The elevator could be a little bit cleaner.
    From time to time, there is water on the floor in the basement where the washing machines are due to rain.

    Nice enough building with caveats
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Super's nice, mostly responsive if you bug him, rent is cheap depending on the apartment, they're trying to fix it up. It's a solid old prewar. High ceilings. When they renovate the apartments they do a good job.
    Cons:
    Watch out for the lease you're signing. I got what I thought was a rent-stabilized lease but my apartment is actually owned by a condo association run by the management, so I'm a sublettor. The rapacious broker is actually part of the management and charged me a fee to MOVE WITHIN THE BUILDING.
    This building allows for section 8. I'm okay with that except for the hoarder on the third floor who leaves his door open in the summer and stinks the whole floor up. There's at least one other fellow like that on the 5th floor. Smelly as hell. And the laundry in the basement gets a fly infestation every summer.
    Advice to owner:
    More oversight of these hoarders please. We had to beg and needle and demand to get that guy on 3 cleaned up.
