Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Sheila Wolfset reveals a stark contrast between some well-maintained properties and others facing significant challenges. Positives include friendly supers, good locations, affordable rent, and spacious apartments. However, many renters report ongoing pest infestations, lack of cleanliness, poor garbage management, inadequate heating, and unresponsive management particularly in Bronx locations. Noise and safety concerns are common, alongside complaints about deferred maintenance and slow or patchwork repairs. While some tenants approve of the owner and recommend certain buildings, the general consensus highlights inconsistency in building upkeep and management responsiveness, suggesting the need for more attentive and proactive property management.

Large apartments, great prices

Pros

Great location in a nice neighborhood. Unit prices are typically lower than the surrounding neighborhood. Live in super is friendly and helpful

Cons

If you're home all day, heat during the winter isn't that strong during the middle of day. From evening through early morning it's good
