Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

The buildings managed by Seth Lubin often benefit from responsive management when addressing repairs and maintenance issues, and are located in desirable neighborhoods with convenient amenities. However, tenants frequently report that the buildings are older with outdated interiors requiring significant renovation, especially in kitchens and bathrooms. Common issues include noise due to proximity to highways, pest problems, and cleanliness concerns in shared areas like stairwells. Some renters find rent prices high relative to apartment condition. Overall, while the management is timely in some repairs, improvements in building upkeep, pest control, and transparency on cleanliness are needed to enhance tenant satisfaction.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Old building. Next to the highway.

Pros

Beautiful neighborhood on a beautiful street. Very close to the park.

Cons

Bedroom facing highway. Very loud all day and night. Floors slanted. Bathroom leaves a lot to be desired. Building stairwell needs a deep clean or repainting and renovation. Old wooden floors, you hear every footstep your upstairs neighbors take and it creaks the whole apartment.

Advice to the owners

Fixing the stairwell would be a big improvement. A bathroom sink with a cabinet would be nice.

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

A studio apartment

Pros

The responsiveness of the landlord to fix things in the apartment has been good.

Cons

The floor is detached from the wall allowing bugs to come in all the time. Recently there have been a lot of bugs and I am considering moving. The toilet was absolutely disgusting and had thick dark residue covering the inside of the bowl. I had to call the landlord to clean the toilet after the fact. The flooring all uneven scratched and discolored. Is looks like it could be the original flooring from when the building was built. He counter top of the kitchen area is all burnt and scratched.

Advice to the owners

Place new flooring that is attached to the walls so no bugs come in.
