Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews of buildings managed by Leonard Kolkacu reveal a pattern of dissatisfaction primarily due to management issues. While many residents commend the spacious apartments, friendly neighbors, and overall cleanliness, they express frustration with unresponsive management and neglected maintenance, particularly concerning elevators and heating. The pest control situation varies, with some reporting significant issues. Noise levels are generally moderate, and while some buildings are rent-stabilized, the rising rents and lack of timely repairs have led to calls for better management practices. Potential renters should be prepared for possible management challenges despite the appealing living conditions.

Management is unresponsive, main elevator is broken for years and secondary elevator breaks every once in a while. Seems like they are trying to get rid of the older tenants
