Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for ARI SCHERTZ-managed buildings reveal a mixed management performance. Positive highlights include clean common areas, well-kept buildings in certain locations, responsive supers, and family-friendly neighborhoods. However, recurrent issues involve pest infestations, especially cockroaches and mice, with many tenants frustrated by ineffective pest control. Maintenance and repairs often experience delays or temporary fixes, while some buildings have thin walls causing noise disturbances. Communication and owner responsiveness are inconsistent, with some tenants finding management unresponsive or difficult to reach. Rent increases continue despite ongoing maintenance problems, leading to dissatisfaction among some renters. Overall, management shows effort in cleanliness and staff but falling short on pest control and tenant communication.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Great building quiet area

Pros

This is a great area to live in, very family oriented. Right across the street from a school. Decent street parking. The Maintenance staff is the best they keep the building in great shape. Lobby and hallways are always pristine. Mailroom for your packages so they arent just left by the mailboxes all day.

Cons

Sheepshead Bay are is out of the way from many cultural type events. Getting home from the city can be daunting cause trains and buses are inconsistent at certain times of the day or weekends.
