Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Sherif Bacaj reveals a mixed experience. While some appreciate the convenient, quiet locations, rent-stabilized units, and responsive superintendents, others report persistent issues such as mice infestations and outdated appliances. Management’s responsiveness is seen as inconsistent—some tenants find them attentive, but many criticize slow repairs, poor communication, and a tendency to outsource maintenance cheaply, leading to subpar results. Rent hikes despite building shortcomings and neglect of tenant concerns contribute to dissatisfaction. Tenants advise improved tenant communication, timely repairs, and reinvestment in property upgrades to enhance living conditions and overall satisfaction.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Nice, quiet building

Pros

Usually pretty quiet, rent stabilized unit, laundry in basement, elevator, live-in super who was very responsive, no issues with mice/bugs.

Cons

No crazy updated amenities, the brick was painted over which was criminal in my opinion

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Fine if you like living with rodents

Pros

Amazing neighborhood, super quiet street, never had any issues with neighbors.

Cons

Very very old building, every appliance broke down at some point while living here. Our bathroom is covered in mold on the ceiling and the building refuses to fix it. Main issue that we have dealt with is a building wide mice infestation. Beware. You will have rodent roommates if you live here.
