Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for MICHAEL CANTOR-managed buildings reveals mixed experiences. Residents generally appreciate respectful neighbors, convenient locations, and features like doormen and on-site laundromats. However, persistent issues include package theft, pest infestations (especially rodents and roaches), inconsistent maintenance, occasional unannounced entries, and slow responses to repair requests. Heating and water pressure problems in some buildings also affect comfort during colder months. Garbage management and building cleanliness vary, with some sites noted for unpleasant garbage areas. Overall, while some tenants endorse staying due to stable communities and good transit access, management responsiveness and building upkeep need improvement to elevate living conditions.

Reviews

Former tenant·5 minutes ago

Elmhurst retreat 20 mins to the city

Pros

Laundromat on site, respectful older crowd, most units are rent stabilized or rent controlled.

Cons

Ridiculous amount of package theft, low water pressure, little to no maintenance without pressuring the super and landlord.

Advice to the owners

Heat on cold days is essential it is unfair to have to purchase an electric heater all winter.
