Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of Nelson Management Group Ltd's buildings consistently praise the cleanliness, well-maintained amenities, and friendly, hardworking superintendents and staff. Buildings like 275 South Street feature spacious apartments, effective garbage management, doorman security, and valued extras such as gyms and rooftop spaces. However, pest control issues, especially roaches, and occasional rodent problems persist in some locations, causing tenant concern. Management responsiveness varies—while supers and maintenance are often commended for timely help, leasing offices and corporate management sometimes receive criticism for poor communication and slow responses. Rent hikes and difficult lease renewals have also caused dissatisfaction. Overall, tenants should expect solid building upkeep with some management challenges.
