Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants report that Paul Silberfarb’s buildings generally offer well-maintained, clean living environments in convenient locations with friendly neighbors and good community atmosphere. Positive remarks often focus on responsive maintenance and helpful staff, with some buildings praised for strong water pressure and good heating. However, communication with management can be inconsistent, with specific complaints about slow or rude landlord responsiveness. Laundry facilities and pest control emerge as areas needing improvement, particularly in some buildings where pests and outdated laundry setups detract from the experience. Overall, tenants value the quality of the buildings but encourage more proactive management and attention to common area upkeep.

Former tenant·9 months ago

Crappy Landlord, Great Staff

Pros

Tree-lined streets Great staff (the super + office assistant was really nice and was very helpful!) Nice generous living room layout Building neighbors were really nice! Sunny living room Exposed brick + fireplace

Cons

LANDLORD, he is a piece of work. Extremely rude to tenants and would yell at us occassionally over minor inconveniences Small kitchen layout Next to a building that is constantly under construction Pest issue, we had mice at on the top floor Shared laundry room had issues with water draining onto the floor and it pooled. Bugs would drown in the water If all the laundry machines were running, the power would cut out and the washers wouldn't drain correctly

Advice to the owners

Get your act together and take care of this building. Your tenants are nice people and love being there. Take care of the common areas and treat them with respect.
