Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant feedback for buildings managed by Jose Encarnacion highlights a mixed experience. The management is noted for good garbage handling and responsiveness to complaints, especially in smaller buildings with quiet, friendly neighbors. However, recurring and poorly managed pest issues, including cockroach and bedbug infestations, significantly impact resident satisfaction. Cleanliness and maintenance, particularly of laundry facilities, receive criticism. Noise levels vary, and some residents report safety concerns outside the building. Overall, management shows effort but needs to improve pest control and timely maintenance to enhance tenant comfort and approval.

Reviews

Former tenant·5 minutes ago

Fine quiet building

Pros

Small landlord who is pretty responsive to complaints. Nice super. Garbage is managed well. Pretty quiet building—a few students and some longtime elderly residents. Good block with restaurants and bars. We generally liked living there.

Cons

You do have to request an exterminator regularly because there are roaches. Laundry room super inconvenient—closes at 9pm and 2 of the 4 W/D pairs are usually broken and the ones that work smell bad. Pretty annoying and persistent homeless guy out front often.

Advice to the owners

Maintain the washer/dryer pairs better.
