Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for Vito Mazzarino's buildings reveal a mixed management experience. Some properties, especially on East 75th Street, are praised for cleanliness, quietness, and attentive maintenance staff, with landlords living onsite, which fosters careful upkeep. However, recurrent issues include poor owner responsiveness, delayed or absent repairs, pest problems, noisy units, and occasional building disrepair. Rent hikes and outdated payment methods frustrate many. Some tenants report management as unprofessional or difficult, with problems like water damage and heating inconsistencies. Prospective renters should expect variability: well-kept family-owned buildings alongside others marked by neglect and management challenges.

Shady Landlord Tactics

Pros

Good sized apartments. Ok location.

Cons

Vito is shady - his wife is the broker, so they’re essentially renting you their own apartment and charging a fee (Or they used to — thankfully that’s not legal anymore). They’ll nickel and dime you for every little thing. The building layout is good but they jacked up the rent every year I was there with no room to negotiate. Water damage on the ceiling. Rarely hot water in the showers. Occasional roaches. Terrible kitchen. Rent payment by mail to a PO Box.
