Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews of buildings managed by MAGNUM MANAGEMENT reveal a mixed experience. While some appreciate the lively locations, well-maintained units, and responsive staff, numerous renters express frustration with poor communication, insufficient security leading to frequent package thefts, and delayed maintenance responses, especially heating issues in winter. Garbage management and pest control efforts vary, with reports of persistent rodent problems in some buildings. Noise levels can be high due to neighbors and nightlife. Rent increases and unclear stabilization status impact tenant satisfaction. Overall, prospective renters should expect management challenges, fluctuating responsiveness, and security concerns in these buildings.

Review of Ludlow

Pros

Cons

loud and people steal your packages

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Avoid this real estate management group

Pros

Close to grocery stores, location is great for younger people who want access to downtown, perfect size for just one person, some aesthetic updates are nice, can’t really hear neighbors

Cons

Security cameras are not turned on/neighbor in the building steals packages, price is exorbitant for the space, don’t share updates around construction hours (performed indoor construction on staircase for days on end, never advised tenants), unresponsive to maintenance requests (pipes are too small in updates units, leaks are common, will not address stolen package issues), most updated furnishes are cheaply made, did not notify the entire building of a cockroach infestation & reduced exterminator visits to “as requested” requiring tenants to enroll in program without advising them, leasing agents are terrible/will say anything to get you to sign, increased the rent for everyone in the building by almost 40% in 2022 after promising this would not happen - try to ensure they do not have long term renters in the building, management is likely illegally destabilizing the units as they stopped registering rental history in 2012 (when most units were rent stabilized), not below intimidation of tenants

Advice to the owners

Deal with the tenant stealing packages, stop ripping off your tenants out of greed - worst rental experience in NYC
