Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews of buildings managed by George Lavian show a mix of experiences. Properties benefit from great locations, with some buildings boasting clean, safe environments and helpful superintendents who are often praised for their efforts. However, significant issues persist, including persistent pest problems (cockroaches and mice), inconsistent and slow management responsiveness, and inadequate security measures leading to package theft. Building upkeep varies, with reports of poor cleanliness, outdated appliances, and noise problems in some locations. While some renters appreciate prompt attention and community feel, many express frustration with maintenance delays and call for better management communication and infrastructural improvements.

Reviews

Ok Mediocre Apt

Pros

Not many issues with actual apartment space.

Cons

If any problems arise hard to get in touch with landlord. Often performing construction in hallway that is hazardous.

Former tenant·46 minutes ago

Solid B +

Pros

Clean, safe, secure. Super is an 80 yr old puerto rican man who prides himself in keeping the garbage area tidy. Convenient access to L train and all the best spots in the East Village. Never had any pest issues and minimal maintenance concerns

Cons

VERY LOUD on 1st Avenue. I've gone deaf from all the honking.
