    Review Summary for 987 Willoughby Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews highlight the building's excellent amenities, including a gym, roof access, and laundry facilities, making it a sought-after spot in Bushwick. The location is central, with easy access to public transportation. However, some units may not comply with housing regulations due to modifications. While the building is well-maintained, concerns have been raised about management responsiveness, security deposit issues, maintenance delays, and disruptive neighbors. Despite some drawbacks, the majority appreciate the building's cleanliness, pest control, and water pressure. Suggestions include better management communication and tenant community engagement to enhance the overall living experience.

    Overall, good spot to be
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Well-maintained building. Great roof, gym and laundry in building. Location can’t be beat in Bushwick. Just steps to everywhere you want to go. Train is a short walk away.
    Cons:
    Depending on the unit you’re in, some have been converted to have additional bedrooms some of which might be too small to comply with city housing codes.

    Avoid at all costs
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building was nice when I moved in
    Cons:
    - Building management will do everything up to and including breaking state law to avoid returning your security deposit
    - Maintenance requests go unanswered for days at a time regardless of urgency, and even then often only when prompted multiple times
    - General building upkeep is poor. Common areas have broken door handles for months at a time, the rooftop area is not kept orderly, and the elevator breaks down regularly. Washers and dryers went down and were not repaired for over a year
    Advice to owner:
    Get out of the property ownership business
