Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for BLAKE-RIV REALTY LLC properties reveal a mixed management experience. The buildings are praised for their prime locations and responsive management in some cases, but persistent pest issues like bed bugs and rodents are a significant concern. Cleanliness and garbage management are often rated poorly, with frequent complaints about trash overflow and unclean common areas. Heating and water pressure can be inconsistent, and noise levels vary due to busy streets and neighbors. Package theft and occasional slow maintenance responses add to tenant frustrations. Overall, management shows responsiveness at times but struggles with pest control and maintaining building upkeep.

Bed Bugs In The Walls

Pros

Building is in a great location in LES

Cons

No elevator, packages were getting stolen. But biggest thing is the bedbugs in the wall. I had to move out 6months in to my lease, and the building clearly knew that was the case.

Advice to the owners

Get the bedbugs under control
