    Review Summary for 44-15 43 Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenant reviews for 44-15 43 Avenue, Queens, NY 11104 highlight mixed feedback. While some appreciate the location, spacious units, and affordability, issues like heating problems, elevator breakdowns, pest control, and neighbor negligence have been raised. Suggestions include improving heating systems, upgrading the elevator, and enhancing overall maintenance. Despite concerns about rat infestations and deteriorating conditions, positive aspects like responsive supers and a sense of community exist. Renters find the rent increases reasonable but express discontent with some management practices and limited tenant influence in decision-making.

    Usually decent but no heat in the winter and elevator breaks down occasionally
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Building common area and outside is clean and well maintained. Location is great and convenient, close to all. Supermarket downstairs.
    Cons:
    Little to no heat in the winter: when it's 50 degrees outside, the heat is blasting but when it's 10 degrees outside, there's hardly any heat.

    Elevator problems: the elevator breaks down occasionally so the FDNY has to be called to get the poor folks stuck inside out.

    Rat problem in the basement.

    Neighbors: occasionally they are careless and leave the water running so it leaks down into the apartments below, ruining the ceiling and walls.
    Advice to owner:
    Turn on the heat in the winter or install a thermostat so it automatically turns on; upgrade/fix the elevator.
