Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Reviews for buildings managed by Robert Cohen reveal a mix of positive and negative experiences with management. Tenants often praise the responsiveness and helpfulness of supers and maintenance staff, noting timely repairs and generally clean, well-maintained apartments. Many appreciate the respectful neighbors and quiet environments in some buildings. However, recurring pest issues—with roaches and mice mentioned consistently—pose a significant concern, alongside occasional plumbing and heating problems. Package theft and some unfriendliness or slow response from leasing offices are also noted. While management is usually seen as responsive and flexible, improvements are needed in pest control, communication, and building upkeep to enhance tenant satisfaction.
