Review Summary for Wing Yee
Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
Reviews for buildings managed by WING YEE reveal a mixed tenant experience. While the location and accessibility are praised, many highlight cleanliness issues in common areas and inconsistent pest control. Heating systems in older buildings sometimes underperform, and noise levels can be high due to traffic and building surroundings. Responsiveness from management and the owner varies significantly between buildings, with some tenants reporting timely assistance while others feel neglected.

Horrible owner, rent scandal
Former Tenant
Pros:
Lobby has been remodeled and finally a front door buzzer has been installed
Cons:
the walls in the hall outside the apartment on each floor need to be refinished and repainted
No more lying and sending someone in to photograph the inside of an apartment claiming it’s a routine city-required inspection. Don’t raise the rent of rent stabilized apartment by 280% for a new tenant

First apartment review
Former Tenant
Pros:
Amazing location; a lot of things to do. Very convenient to access trader joes/whole foods/other grocery stores. Super is very responsive and timely with repairs
Cons:
Older building so definitely has issues with heat where they cannot warm up effectively in the winter. Noise because of location is unfortunately unavoidable given Delancey street traffic and more college kids renting

Cons:
Foyer and staircase is always super dirty and never gets cleaned.
Heat is too much sometimes.
There is a man that hangs out on the stairs every day, but seems harmless.
