Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of buildings managed by Baruch Davidson reveal a pattern of affordability as a key advantage, with some appreciating the landlord's responsiveness to maintenance issues. However, multiple tenants report significant concerns including poor cleanliness, pest infestations, and overall poor upkeep of common areas and apartments. Many cite problematic cash-only rent collection and lack of essential building features like buzzers and doorbells, which affect tenant convenience and security. Noise and thin walls also diminish living comfort. While some tenants find value for the price, there is a widespread call for substantial renovations and improved management to address long-standing maintenance and hygiene problems.

Pros

Quiet, good location, generally clean although very dusty in the stairwells. Good size for the price and area. Landlord is responsive for maintenance like plumbing and broken fixtures.

Cons

Ongoing pest/rodent problem that landlord is dragging his feet about, occasional roach problems, spiders in the fall/summer. Walls can be thin between neighboring apartments.
