Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by Chaskel Landau reveal frequent issues with poor maintenance, unresponsiveness, and pest control problems, particularly in older or rent-stabilized properties. Many tenants report unresolved rat and roach infestations, heating failures, mold, and water leaks. Although some buildings show signs of recent renovations and clean common areas, residents often describe management as slow or unhelpful in addressing concerns. Noise and neighbor quality vary widely. Several reviews mention unfair eviction fees and rent hikes. Overall, the management is often seen as lacking timely communication, with tenants advising better responsiveness and property upkeep.

Rats and no insulation

Pros

Spacious and cute, backyard access.

Cons

Persistent rat infestation in the walls and basement the management won’t send a true pest company to solve leading to putrid smell of death weekly and noise nightly. One of the two bedrooms is not insulated, gets below 40degrees in the winter, unlivable even after sealing the door/window and adding thick floor to ceiling curtains along the entire back wall.

It was fine.

Pros

- The neighborhood is amazing. - The AC/heat units are nice. - Water in the shower was reliably hot. - Apartment was overall nice, tiny cute apartments if that’s your thing. - Pretty affordable considering prices around the neighborhood.

Cons

- The front door to the building frequently breaks, packages get stolen - The toilet seat was broken when we moved in and they charged us for it when we moved out - They charged for cleaning and painting which is not the tenant’s responsibility. We left the apartment clean and with all holes in the wall spackled. - The dishwasher was broken when we moved in and the whole time we lived there. It was leaking and didn’t close properly. We knew it had been an issue well before us, because moving in we saw a water stain on the floor where it was leaking. They sent a repairman, but they didn’t actually fix it. - There is only one washer and one dryer for everyone in the building. Not even close to enough. And you have to use quarters for it.
