Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Buildings managed by Brian Garland show a consistent pattern of unresponsiveness from management, leading to tenants feeling neglected and ignored despite multiple repair requests. Persistent pest infestations, including roaches, rats, and mice, are a widespread issue, exacerbated by poor garbage management and cleanliness. Heating systems are often faulty or inconsistently maintained, and noise levels can be high with tenants citing disruptive neighbors. While some buildings have friendly supers and spacious units, overall management responsiveness is low, infrastructure upkeep is inadequate, and tenant concerns are frequently dismissed, creating challenging living conditions for many residents.

Make the roaches disappear

Pros

Location, relatively quiet neighborhood, easy to access MTA transport into the city.

Cons

UPDATE: super & management STILL DON’T respond properly. Took them to court, still have issues within my unit and repairs the need to be done in the building itself. Roaches! They do have a company that comes twice a month to provide pest control, but you have to be home. Working a Monday-Friday it’s kinda hard to just leave or not go into work to wait all day for pest control to come. I’ve emailed management & the super about some things that need to be addressed in my unit, it’s been almost 3 months now and NO RESPONSE!

Advice to the owners

Respond to your tenets when we call/email/text. Tent the building, the roach issue is NOT normal.

Tenant Harassment and Rats Galore

Pros

The only thing that’s likeable about this building is that it is rent stabilized.

Cons

There is an influx of rats that has not been addressed in the 5 years I have lived here. Maintenance does not answer emails and does not fix any issues you have in your apartment. The office works are rude and usually, do not answer. I have had a hole in my ceiling by my window for 3 years. Every time it rains, water drips down from the ceiling.

Advice to the owners

Get a new job, you are not suited to own property.
