Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews indicate that buildings managed by Jacob Jacobs suffer from significant management shortcomings. Common issues include poor cleanliness and garbage management, persistent pest infestations, unreliable heating, and weak owner responsiveness. Many buildings appear unhygienic with ongoing mold, rodents, and maintenance problems that are addressed slowly or inadequately. While some neighbors are praised as friendly, noise levels tend to be high, and common areas often remain dirty. Renters advise improved upkeep, pest control, and timely repairs. Overall, expect management that is often unresponsive and buildings that require substantial maintenance improvements for a better living experience.

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

great neighbors, beautiful tree out front, awful super and short circuited apartment

Pros

the tree out front is lovely, our neighbors next door were awesome, nice light

Cons

the washer and dryer was almost always broken and loud as fuck, and our whole apartment had a really shitty electric job because the washer dryer was connected to ours and our lights were always flickering and power going out. the super was not good. he did not know what he was doing. also when we moved in the place was dirty and the bathroom sink was leaking

Avoid this building

Pros

There is nothing to like about this building.

Cons

There is everything wrong with this building. - it’s always dirty, there’s trash on the floor - the floor is always sticky and since the building isn’t cleaned daily it’s infested with rats and roaches. - it often leaks which causes mold and fungus to grow
