Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by Diane Gipstein reveal a varied management performance. The properties generally have well-kept common areas, quiet and respectful neighbors, and responsive on-site supers praised for handling maintenance and cleanliness. However, several buildings face pest control issues, particularly with roaches, and some have persistent smoke and odor problems that management has yet to fully address. Tenants note occasional building repairs delays and aging infrastructure that could benefit from updates. While management is often approachable, responsiveness can be inconsistent, particularly regarding enforcement of lease rules. Overall, renters can expect attentive staff but should be prepared for some maintenance and pest challenges.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Don’t rent in these buildings

Pros

It’s close to the park

Cons

They do no maintenance—there’s a massive roach problem in the basement and they won’t do basic repair to keep water from pooling down there. The super isn’t helpful. Building just generally isn’t well taken care of.

Advice to the owners

Repair your buildings.

Mostly positive experience

Pros

- great live-in super - mostly quiet building - amazing location - everything works as you’d expect

Cons

- pest issues (roaches) although the property manager is helpful with managing this - multiple fire alarms went off within a few weeks, seemed strange that there were some fire-safety issues in a short period of time, but luckily the fire department is very close by and responsive. Nothing dramatic came of these alarms
