Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews of buildings managed by Leibish Frankel reveal persistent issues with cleanliness and pest control, with many describing the common areas as filthy and infested. Garbage management results vary, but some buildings struggle with odors and upkeep. Heating and water pressure are uneven, often below expectations. Tenants report slow or inadequate owner responsiveness, frustrated by unaddressed maintenance and hygiene problems. While apartments themselves tend to be spacious and neighbors generally acceptable, the overall dissatisfaction stems from poor building maintenance and a lack of timely management intervention. Rent stabilization status is unclear in several reviews, adding uncertainty for renters.

Reviews

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

995 Gates Ave

Pros

The apartments are big.

Cons

Everything… the super doesn’t do anything besides one guy that doesn’t even live in the building. Mold and roach galore. The hallways stink, the elevator stink, the stairwell STINK! The tenants clean more then the super.

Advice to the owners

Take care of your tenants! I understand we live in NYC, but do better.
