Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by John McDermott reveal a generally well-maintained and clean environment, with attentive, friendly doormen and helpful staff enhancing the living experience. Residents appreciate modern amenities and prompt maintenance, but often mention high rents and additional fees for amenities as drawbacks. Noise levels and elevator reliability are common concerns, especially in luxury Manhattan buildings with many young, post-grad tenants. Management responsiveness is mostly positive, though some find lease negotiations and communications challenging or strict. Pest control is usually effective, though occasional issues arise. Overall, expect a safe, service-oriented community with some management rigidity and premium pricing.
