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. Overall, management appears to need improvements in maintenance, pest control, and communication to enhance resident satisfaction.

Reviews

Former tenant·7 minutes ago

Not well maintained

Pros

Close to subway station and Prospect Park. Lots of space.

Cons

Roaches. Old fixtures and poorly maintained building.

Former tenant·5 months ago

Willfully incompetent management

Pros

Beautiful apartment, nice neighbors

Cons

Management left us with severe maintenance issues for months at a time, and were unresponsive and incompetent when communicating or solving issues.
