Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews for DEKALB MARCY ESTATES LLC properties reveal significant management challenges. Tenants consistently report unresponsive and distant management, with many describing poor communication and a lack of timely issue resolution. Heating and hot water interruptions are frequent, and essential maintenance like cleaning and pest control is often neglected. Garbage management and cleanliness are subpar, with some mentioning foreclosures and receivership issues. Despite the generally friendly neighbors and decent apartment sizes, the overall tenant experience is negatively impacted by management practices. Renters advise improvements in responsiveness, maintenance, and transparent communication to enhance living conditions in these buildings.

Former tenant·3 months ago

AWFUL management situation

Pros

Neighbors were friendly and pleasant Apartment was decently sized with a good size living room

Cons

- Management failed to pay heat and electric bills on multiple occasions every single month - management was so bad the building went into foreclosure and the receiver was just as bad as the original landlord - basic maintenance like cleaning up trash in hallways and changing batteries in chirping smoke detectors in common areas went undone - packages were constantly stolen - management was distant and unresponsive to basic questions
