Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by John Ilibassi reveal a mixed management experience. Positive notes include responsive and helpful supers, well-kept common areas, and convenient locations with generally respectful neighbors in some buildings. Management is often praised for pest control efforts, clean hallways, and maintenance responsiveness in select properties. However, many tenants report issues with unresponsive or rude property managers, slow repairs, persistent pest problems (especially roaches), and ongoing package theft. Heating inconsistencies, noise challenges, and escalating rents without adequate communication are common complaints. Tenants advise better communication, pest control, maintenance prioritization, and rent stability to improve living conditions across the portfolio.

Cons

-Super is irresponsible. Took months to repair our broken stove top. Unwilling to respond to emergencies of residents. -The property is old and dirty. -The restaurant downstairs (Shiro Kuro and Boka) plays extremely loud music and the property managers do not take any actions about it. -Hot water occasionally stop running.
