Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by Lipa Friedman reveal a mix of positive and negative experiences. Many commend the clean, well-maintained buildings with friendly, helpful staff and convenient locations near transit and parks. Amenities are often appreciated, including doormen and rooftop spaces. However, persistent concerns include unresponsive or slow management, especially after hours and on weekends, and difficulties with maintenance follow-ups. Tenants frequently report management's lack of transparency, nickel-and-diming fees, and insufficient communication. Noise issues from neighbors and building infrastructure, occasional pest problems, and dated interiors are recurring themes. Overall, expect clean, amenity-rich buildings with decent staff, but prepare for management that can be difficult to engage and inconsistent in addressing tenant concerns.

Reviews

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

Great building, loved it here!

Pros

Loved living here! Staff is super friendly, building is clean and well maintained.

Cons

Management is not flexible and is always looking to get more money out of you, but that's to be expected in New York.

Convenient location near parks and train

Ongoing construction and maintenance
