Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Velda Lee reveals a generally responsive and accommodating ownership, with prompt attention to maintenance and helpful superintendents praised. Residents appreciate strong water pressure and reasonable heating, though occasional heating and gas issues have been reported, notably during winter. Cleanliness and garbage management vary moderately, with some concerns about rent increases exceeding legal limits and delays in returning security deposits. The buildings offer charming, older units in desirable locations, but noise levels and neighbor relations can be mixed. Tenants recommend improved communication around rent adjustments and timely resolution of system malfunctions for enhancing tenant satisfaction.

Reviews

Former tenant·4 minutes ago

Nolita apartment on Mott

Pros

The location is amazing, owner is very responsive if I have any issues but haven had many. Heat and water pressure are good!

Cons

It’s an older building so sometimes small issues come up.

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Good & decently quiet building for the most part

Pros

Super quick to respond to any maintenance issues. Though it has no buzzer or intercom system, hasn't been a problem for receiving packages

Cons

Rent was increased above the new legal guidelines imposed by the Good Faith Eviction Law on a less than 12 months lease. Only reason why i'm leaving
