Review Summary for Choice NY Property Management

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by CHOICE NY PROPERTY MANAGEMENT reveals persistent issues with cleanliness, pest infestations (rats, roaches), and poorly managed garbage. Many tenants highlight unresponsive management who often fail to address urgent maintenance problems such as heating failures and non-functional laundry facilities. While some appreciate the apartment sizes and neighborly community, frustrations grow due to slow communications and rent increases despite ongoing building problems. There is a notable gap in timely responsiveness to tenant concerns, impacting overall satisfaction. Prospective renters should expect challenges in maintenance and management responsiveness, with some positive aspects like quiet surroundings and outdoor spaces.

Dirty and pests

Former Tenant

Pros:

Good size rooms and closets

Cons:

It’s a nightmare
Offers, bike room, yard, laundry and this 3 are infested with rats and rat droppings, used to be infested of roaches and now switch to rats
Stairs and the whole building smells to dead rat and urine
In 3 yrs management never check problems in the apartment and they had the audacity to raise the rent 10%

Advice to owner:

Focus on the apartment and take care of tenants

Horrible Management, Unsanitary Conditions

Former Tenant

Pros:

The current tenants are all kind, many women and families living here

Cons:

The property manager of this building has been consistently unresponsive and dismissive of serious concerns. For two years of being here, lack of heat has been a problem in the winter, and now serious rodent and garbage problems are present. These may be resolved, but I guarantee it will happen again and the property manager will be just as unhelpful.

Advice to owner:

Respond to complaints, communicate with tenants when they are living in uninhabitable conditions. You can’t expect patience when the issue is an immediate hazard.

Older tenanent building - Cockroach infested

Former Tenant

Pros:

Decent apartment. Convenient location.

Cons:

This building is infested with cockroaches. They send exterminators each month but that isn’t helping. The entire building is infested. There are dead cockroaches everywhere in the building and you have to step over them as you come in and out of the building. The heat is intermittent and sometimes doesn’t work when it’s really cold out.

Advice to owner:

Clean your building more properly.

It’s good relative to what’s out there but new management is bad

Former Tenant

Pros:

Laundry in building, decent neighbors, access to nicely sized backyard, rooms averagely sized. Super responds usually within the hour but closer to just 10 mins, he’s helpful for small things around the apt if there’s a problem but not much else. There is laundry in building but read my cons if you want more info on that.

Cons:

Building recently changed management(within the last 6 months?) And they’ve been EXTREMELY slow to answer concerns. Was advertised as having laundry in building but the dryers weren’t working when we applied, we were assured that it would be fixed shortly. Its been OVER A YEAR and nothing. We’ve had to take our laundry out to do it which is an inconvenience and an extra expense. No indication management will have this fixed anytime soon. Also I heard another tenant complain about rats in their apt? That’s not a problem in our apt but I wouldn’t put it past an nyc building. Also there’s a trash can in the backyard that stinks and literally hasn’t been moved since we moved in and it makes the backyard smell sometimes, and I’m not moving it bc how vile it smells and also it weighs ALOT So I doubt anyone else will do it. They take forever to respond to ANY EMAIL you send and anytime you call they NEVER PICK UP. Even for time sensitive things like a lease renewal! After responding they didn’t even only addressed ONE Of our concerns and ignored the other. What’s the most annoying is the audacity they had after “managing” this building for less than a year and after us only living here for one year they’re RAISING THE RENT ALREADY. Like they’ve yet to improve anything the building to make rent here higher in fact they’ve done nothing to fix problems that make them meet the buildings bare minimums that were advertised to us when we accepted our offer.

Advice to owner:

RESPOND TO EMAILS (IN A TIMLEY MANNER). PICK UP PHONE-CALLS.

They have things to work on.

Former Tenant

Pros:

Pretty well maintained building. Nice backyard space. Not noisy at all. The intercom system works well and there is an app available to enter the building. Super is pretty responsive.

Cons:

The laundry facilities do not work and the management company has not been responsive at all for fixing them or getting in touch with someone who might. It was advertised as having laundry facilities but dis not work. The heater in the largest bedroom in my unit only works like 20% of the time. Also getting in touch with management is super difficult.

Advice to owner:

Fix the laundry facilities. Also clean the entry doors a bit more.

Hold the super accountable for repairs.
