Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent reviews of buildings managed by Thomas Jakobson reveal a mixed tenant experience. While some appreciate the prime locations, pet-friendly policies, and well-managed garbage disposal, significant concerns include frequent pest infestations, especially mice and roaches, and inconsistent heating quality. Noise levels and occasional neighborhood disruptions from nearby businesses are noted. Critically, owner responsiveness is often perceived as lacking or slow, with some tenants experiencing poor communication and unaddressed emergencies. Package theft and building maintenance delays further detract from tenant satisfaction. Prospective renters should expect decent amenities but may face management responsiveness challenges and pest-related issues.

Totally fine place

Pros

Perfect location to park, restaurants, and a calm street by new york standards, pet friendly

Roaches, but they have an exterminator come monthly to spray, sometimes neighbors are loud as it’s a lot of college kids; can be a far walk from trains (especially in the winter)
