Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Abe Friedman reveals a mixed picture. While apartments are praised for spaciousness and good locations near transportation and amenities, persistent issues with cleanliness and pest control—especially roach infestations—are a major concern. Maintenance and repairs often face delays, with some tenants reporting inconsistent heat, water pressure problems, and aging infrastructure. Garbage management receives moderate marks, but noise and security problems like package theft are noted. Owner responsiveness varies but is frequently seen as slow or inadequate.
