Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants consistently report that Avraham Garbo's buildings are in desirable locations with good apartment layouts and often feature some pleasing architectural or natural elements like sunlight and private yards. However, building maintenance and management responsiveness are major pain points, with numerous accounts of slow or ineffective repairs, pest infestations, mold, broken amenities, and trash issues. Security deposit disputes and rent increases despite poor upkeep also emerge as frequent concerns. Tenants describe the management as uncommunicative and at times neglectful of urgent health and safety issues. Overall, renters can expect aesthetic appeal but are warned to prepare for ongoing management challenges and insufficient building care.

Cute place, Nightmare Landlord

Pros

Smaller unit building, great location, relatively quiet.

Cons

Landlord is a slumlord, truly. Always a half measure in fixing anything, and things always took 5 or 6 tries to actually complete correctly. We went days without water, and the landlord refused to prorate rent for that time, even though that is illegal. They just know that they'll get away with whatever they want, and the barest of the bare minimum. Oh, and he will absolutely screw you over on your security deposit, won't send an itemized list of supposed repairs, and will blatantly lie and make something up. This landlord sucks.

Looks lovely, tiny apartments and horrible managment

Pros

Close to many trains, on a beautiful block, gets great light

Cons

When we moved in there was shit in the toilet, holes in the walls, and the lock was brokend
