Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of Jonas Equities, Inc. properties reveal a mixed management experience. Tenants praise attentive and friendly supers who maintain cleanliness, assist residents, and foster a sense of community, particularly in well-kept buildings. However, persistent pest infestations (mice, roaches, bedbugs), occasional maintenance delays, and communication gaps with management are common issues. Some buildings face unresolved structural problems and noise from neighbors, while responsiveness varies widely across locations. Although rent stabilization and affordability are valued, tenants urge Jonas Equities to improve pest control, timely repairs, and tenant communication to enhance the living environment and overall satisfaction.

MANAGEMENT REFUSED TO CLEAN A DECEASED TENANT'S UNIT FOR ALMOST A FULL YEAR.

Pros

Pedro the super and his family do a great job keeping the place clean. The issue is not with them.

Cons

A woman died in unit 4U and management didn't want to pay to have the apartment deep cleaned for ALMOST ONE FULL CALENDAR YEAR. She died and wasn't found for 4 weeks, so she had reached advanced stages of decomposition. The 4th floor smelled like dead body this entire time. Flies were leaking into nearby units through the vent systems. Our unit also had mold around the windows and would leak during a heavy rain. Landlord REFUSED to fix it because it would require scaffolding, and they straight up said they didn't want to pay for it. Stay FAR AWAY from anything owned by Jonas Equities. Disgusting.
