Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant feedback on properties managed by Allan Arker reveals mixed management quality. Positives include some clean, quiet buildings with effective pest control and attentive heating systems. However, numerous reviews cite critical issues such as poor maintenance responsiveness, pest infestations, dirty common areas, and inadequate heating. Garbage management frequently draws complaints, alongside security concerns like intruders in buildings. Noise problems and uncooperative neighbors are noted, along with erratic repair services and outdated amenities. While a few tenants appreciate rent assistance and convenient locations, many highlight negligent property upkeep and suggest hiring more competent staff to improve living conditions. Overall, expect variability, with significant room for management responsiveness and facility maintenance improvement.

Poor QualityManagement

Pros

Affordable Low-income housing

Cons

12 years no offer to paint, roach infested, lazy/inexperienced maintenance workers, dummy cameras, steal your packages, 117units, 6 machines/dryers to share sometimes not working, keeps playground locked, Poor Heat, Broken Buzzers/Intercom, Do not clean the floors or Stairwells just collect the garbage. Management is irresponsible and then threatening if you make a complaint. There is definitely drugs and alcohol involved and they smoke cigarettes and marijuana in the stairwell. slow drainage, low toilet, small rooms, Unleveled floor just like living in the project. I would not recommend.

Advice to the owners

Hire professionals, fix the problems, and create a better living environment and maintaining it for the children, disabled, and elderly. Maintenance should not be able to hangout in an vacant apartment when there is floors to be clean.
