Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by Joel Mizrahi reveal a mixed management quality. Responsive supers and management are noted in several buildings, with timely issue resolution and maintained amenities appreciated. However, persistent complaints include poor pest control, slow or inadequate repairs, especially for heating, plumbing, and appliances, and delays in owner responsiveness. Buildings often suffer from cleanliness issues, noise disturbances, and occasional safety concerns, exacerbated by weak communication from management. While some tenants enjoy affordable rents and good locations, others highlight struggles with rodents, roaches, and unprofessional staff. Prospective renters should expect varied experiences, with improvements needed in maintenance and tenant communication.

Reviews

Former tenant·14 hours ago

Slow to respond to issues

Pros

Close to train Cheap for the area

Cons

Tons of stuff breaks (appliances, plumbing, heat, AC, power, equipment on roof) and they take forever to fix it Park next door is loud in summer Laundry exists but dryers don’t dry well and there are few machines, stains my clothes or eats my money almost every time No ventilation in bathrooms so they get gross

Advice to the owners

Be more responsive and timely to tenant needs.
