Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews of buildings managed by William Demos reveal mixed management experiences. Many tenants praise responsive supers like Pedro and appreciate building locations, quiet neighbors, and amenities like elevators and laundry. However, persistent issues with pest infestations, especially cockroaches, frequently surface, with some residents noting inadequate management response. Communication from ownership is often described as slow or unresponsive, particularly regarding maintenance and safety concerns. Safety and cleanliness vary by building, with some tenants reporting package theft, noise problems, and elevator or heating system malfunctions. While some properties have improved under current management, consistent pest control and more timely maintenance remain critical areas for improvement.

Overall, amazing actually

Pros

- Pedro our super. He's wonderful, feels like family. He is so helpful and on top of everything. Also he is kind and has amazing energy-we are truly lucky to have him. - location wow - elevator and laundry - cute apartments. exposed brick, strong bones - we rarely hear any neighbors.

Cons

The only thing I would say is there are pests (just cockroaches but still) in the warmer months, it is somewhat manageable but also gross unfortunately. The funny thing is, the pros still outweigh the cons.

Good location and responses

Pros

Building management does respond and do their best to fix things quickly it seems like sometimes they get stopped though. The apartments are huge and the location is great close to subways and in a populated area.

Cons

Nothing it’s good

Advice to the owners

Please use a soap and not water when mopping the hallway it ends up smelling like just dirty water
