Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of Moses Karpen's buildings commend good locations, some stylish and clean units, and responsive management in certain buildings, especially regarding online maintenance portals and pest control after prompt requests. However, there are recurring issues with poor heating systems leading to uncomfortably cold winters and high electric bills, frequent pest infestations (rats, roaches), and garbage management problems with trash piling up. Noise disturbances, especially near clubs or event spaces, and thin walls are common complaints. Several renters report unresponsive or slow management, safety violations, neglected repairs, and rent hikes without improvements. Transparency and proactive building maintenance are widely advised for better tenant satisfaction.
