Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews of Nelson Management Group Ltd buildings reveal a stark contrast between properties. Their Manhattan building at 275 South Street is widely praised for cleanliness, attentive and friendly superintendents, and well-kept amenities like rooftop, gym, and laundry. Residents appreciate safety, good pest control, and community feel, though some note occasional management unresponsiveness, rent hikes, and minor pest issues. In contrast, several Brooklyn and Bronx buildings suffer from poor maintenance, pest infestations, uncleanliness, elevator failures, and unresponsive or rude management staff. Tenants frequently cite slow repairs, communication challenges, and safety concerns. Expect well-maintained Manhattan properties but be cautious of management issues in other locations.

Low rent price is too good to be true / Broke lease after 6 months

Pros

Affordable rent and spacious apartment.

Cons

Trash room is in the basement. Trash chutes can’t take normal kitchen sized trash bags. Roaches in common areas (elevators, laundry room, hallways). Elevators break down constantly. The building has 23 or 24 floors so when there is only 1 working elevator you end up waiting 10-30 minutes for an elevator. Sometimes longer. Packages mislabeled often. Rent is paid via mail in check and they often do not update payments on time so you will get an invoice each month that states you owe rent when you do not. Although you must mail in the rent, they only provide invoices and receipts by placing it in envelope and putting it underneath your apartment door. Every few weeks the water is turned off for the majority of the day because of plumbing repairs. The bathroom vent is outdated and lets in huge water bugs. Sometimes debris backlogs into bathtubs/ sinks.
