Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews of buildings managed by Akelius Real Estate Management LLC reveal a mixed management experience. Many appreciate the clean, well-maintained buildings with responsive supers and friendly staff, especially in locations close to transit and parks. However, there are recurring complaints about unresponsiveness from the main management, delayed or ignored maintenance requests, pest issues, and inconsistent heat during winter. Noise levels and insulation are noted problems in some apartments, with occasional brown water and plumbing concerns reported. Rent increases are considered steep by some, and communication sometimes lapses, especially after management turnovers. Overall, management responsiveness and building upkeep can vary significantly by property.

Good place to live

Cons

Smaller units overall

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Wanted to love it

Pros

Location is amazing and doormen are great

Cons

The building doesn't care about issues they allowed me to live in stench of a dead man (my neighbor) without concern and it was unlivable I had to leave many times the smell was so bad, the 'laundry room' is a joke and they don't replace things, the heat never properly runs i have to take measures and email them regularly.

Advice to the owners

If you just take care of the building and tenants people will pay your high prices and more
