Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Reviews for buildings managed by Hedy Lipschitz consistently describe poor management responsiveness and maintenance delays despite decent locations and friendly neighbors. Cleanliness and garbage management are often lacking, with frequent pest problems and package thefts reported. Tenants describe heating issues in winter and report that repairs sometimes take months or require external complaints. While some tenants appreciate the community vibe and certain building basics like water pressure, the general sentiment criticizes management for being unprofessional, sometimes rude or unhelpful. Improvements in timely maintenance, pest control, and security protocols would greatly enhance tenant satisfaction.

Horrible Management and Badly Maintained

Pros

Nice neighbors and hallways were kept fairly clean. Super was responsive.right across from park.

Cons

Packages stolen all the time, super and management are rude (I mostly blame management since they overwork the super), roaches and mice, pest control was not regular, heat often was not on in winter, garbage bins overflowing and trash in the back of building (once causing a fire from the subway), and internet options are bad and limited

Not worth it

Pros

The location and access to the park is the only real pro.

Cons

They take forever to respond and do not value their tenants health or safety. The security at the building is inadequate, packages constantly stolen and recently a woman was attacked in the lobby. Too many bugs and I have never once seen an exterminator or pest control.
