Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of BROOKSHIRE EQUITIES LLC appreciate clean apartments, prompt maintenance, and attractive amenities like rooftop access and modern appliances. The management is sometimes praised for responsiveness, especially resolving apartment issues quickly. However, there are recurring concerns about package theft due to lack of doorman service, noisy rooftop gatherings, and occasional communication and rent increase issues. Garbage management receives mixed reviews, with some complaints about cleanliness and overflowing trash. The building atmosphere tends to attract a younger, lively crowd, which may not suit all renters. Overall, renters advise improved management of security and tenant concerns to enhance living experience.

Great management, overall recommend

Pros

Helm Management is fair and responsive.

Cons

Rooftop can make weekends annoying with people going up and down the elevator, but this is a pro most of the time.

Former tenant·5 days ago

Worst management I have ever experienced

Pros

Nice building and amenities

Cons

Horrible management company. Claimed to not get my payments on time. I even hired a messenger to bring them a check to make sure they received it. Then they would “close early” and refuse to accept the check, then would charge a 100 dollar late fee for accepting the check the following day. And every week I received a 100 dollar fee on top of the original fee. Literally a late fee for the late fee 4 times a month, this went on indefinitely even though they cashed all of my rent checks and were paid in full and on time.

Advice to the owners

Stop making excuses to refuse on time payments, resulting in them being a day late so that you are able to constantly charge late fees.
