Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews of buildings managed by Jonathan Bakhash indicate a mixed management experience. Positives include responsive supers in some buildings, well-maintained cleanliness in select locations, and generally respectful neighbors. However, many renters report serious issues with pest infestations (mice, roaches), unresponsiveness or slow responses to maintenance and urgent repairs, particularly regarding heat and water, and inconsistent garbage management. Several reviews mention ongoing mold problems, safety concerns due to unsecured entrances, and neglected common areas. While some older buildings offer charm and location advantages, management’s inconsistency and neglect detract from overall tenant satisfaction, with pest control and timely communication needing significant improvement.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Less expensive for UES

Pros

Good details (wood floors), lots of windows in most units. Pretty quiet

Cons

Slow to respond when I had a mouse. Old appliances

Former tenant·4 days ago

Good building if you're not home a lot

Pros

The building and the unit I lived in were both quite nice if small.

Cons

Constant noise. There is a fire station a few blocks away. Fire trucks would almost always turn and travel down this street past the building with their siren on. Being street facing and on the 3rd floor it was a nightmare.
