Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by Menahem Chukroon reveal significant inconsistencies in maintenance and management quality. While some properties, especially newer or renovated ones, offer good locations, quiet neighbors, and responsive staff, others suffer from poor cleanliness, pest infestations, and unaddressed repairs. Heat and water pressure issues are common complaints, with slow and sometimes ineffective maintenance responses frequently noted. Tenants report management often cutting corners, using unprofessional contractors, and poor communication, with some mentioning delayed security deposits and unresponsiveness tied to the landlord's overseas status.

Pros

I liked my neighbors and that’s about it.

Cons

Owned by slumlords in Israel. Infested with roaches. Ravi the property manager is an asshole who acts like he’s doing you a favor by doing his job. Maintenance was always slow. Rain water would leak into the apartment and the ceilings started to fall apart. Tried to hold my security deposit for longer bc “the landlord lives in Israel”. Now why does the landlord live in Israel 🤔
