Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of 166 WEST 129TH REALTY LLC buildings note a prime location with affordable, often rent-stabilized units. However, many express frustration over slow and inadequate maintenance, especially regarding heating issues and unresolved water leaks. Pest control and cleanliness are frequent pain points, with reports of roaches and poor garbage management. Tenant communication is seen as unresponsive or dismissive, often relying on city agencies to prompt action. While neighbors are considered average, noise and water pressure issues add to discomfort. Overall, management appears to provide only minimal upkeep and is perceived as neglectful, impacting tenant satisfaction and recommendations.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Slow to make repairs

Pros

Good location, one of the only spots in the location with relatively affordable housing for folks on a budget as several apartments are rent-stabilized

Cons

Slow to make meaningful repairs -- my ceiling leaked multiple times and patched up but the leak wasn't addressed for months and then when it was, it took several weeks to fix and plug the giant hole in the ceiling of my bathroom

Advice to the owners

Stop trying to force rent-stabilized tenants out with inattentive and irregular maintenance

Former tenant·5 months ago

An OK building

Pros

It’s rent controlled, neighbors are decent and close to the multiple subway lines

Cons

Dirty and you will regularly see roaches crawling around. Super and management are slow to respond. Heat is terrible and regularly out.
