Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Reviews of buildings managed by ZEV POLLAK CO reveal inconsistent management quality. Tenants often report poor cleanliness and pest issues, including roach infestations, alongside lagging maintenance and unresponsive superintendents. Garbage management varies from well-organized to lacking attention, impacting the building's overall upkeep. Heating and water pressure are generally adequate, but tenant communication and issue resolution are frequently criticized as slow or insufficient. Some buildings offer desirable amenities and good neighborhood environments, though the need for improved regular maintenance and better staffing—such as more effective superintendents and cleaning crews—is a recurring recommendation. Overall, management responsiveness and building condition require significant improvement.

Roach infested apartment

Pros

The area is quiet and you are able to find parking easily

Cons

I lived on in apartment 3G which is a sublet. The owner is extremely cheap the cabinets are from 1920s the apartment is full of roaches and a fly infestation. The heat is very low to none existing I had to have a space heater which bumped my electricity bill during the winter.

Advice to the owners

Fix the kitchen, take care of roach infestation
