Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews of buildings managed by Moses Karpen reveal a mixed picture in terms of management quality. Several buildings are praised for cleanliness, character-rich apartments, and responsive management during weekdays, with helpful online portals and good amenities. However, recurring issues include poor garbage management, pest infestations, unreliable heat especially in winter, and problematic noise levels from neighbors or nearby venues. Tenants frequently mention slow or inadequate responses to maintenance requests, safety concerns, and occasional rent hikes without corresponding improvements. While some properties are well-maintained with friendly neighbors, others suffer from safety violations and infrastructure neglect, leading to dissatisfaction among renters.

Reviews

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

Get what you pay for

Pros

Nice quiet street, great neighborhood, affordable for splitting cost with 3 people total

Cons

Laundry in basement is essentially useless, trash management is basically nonexistent, cheap “landlord specials” covering things up, higher management/ building owners are hostile

Advice to the owners

You should actually respond promptly when tenants request something through the service. Also it is unethical to charge a service fee when paying directly through direct deposit for rent. Replace the laundry in basement, you advertised it as an amenity in apartment listing and the machines are basically useless, you’d have to Run several loads for it to somewhat work

Would stay here if it wasn’t noisy

Pros

Laundry in unit, close to L, has everything you need really. The apartments have the largest living rooms I’ve seen with high ceiling. Has an artist loft vibe

Cons

Really really noisy coz it’s right across from 3 clubs. You can literally hear what they’re playing inside + the party spills out to the street at 4am, even on weekdays.
