Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants renting from SHARON LIM report a mix of positive and challenging experiences. Buildings under her management offer spacious units with good storage and sunlight, and residents appreciate friendly neighbors and local business owners. Heat and water pressure are generally reliable, and pest control tends to be effective. However, noise issues—especially from street traffic and nearby bars—are frequently mentioned, along with occasional cleanliness and garbage management concerns. Responsiveness varies; while some praise timely owner engagement, others find it lacking. Rent increases and soundproofing are common tenant concerns. Overall, management shows care but could enhance communication and address noise and maintenance more proactively.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

708 Manhattan Ave Abode

Pros

Each unit is the entire floor, very spacious with lots of storage and closet space. The businesses next door all have friendly owners and every neighbor we’ve had has become a friend. Has separate dining room from living space. Front bedroom is gorgeous with bay windows, favorite NYC bedroom of all time.

Cons

Noisy from traffic and bar next door.

Advice to the owners

Stop exorbitantly raising the rent.
