Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews for buildings managed by Janet Ger reveal significant management challenges. Many report unresponsiveness from the owner and superintendents, persistent pest problems, and poor maintenance, including heating and water issues. Complaints about noise, package theft, and safety concerns are frequent. While some tenants appreciate the location and occasional prompt maintenance, others describe the landlord as neglectful with slow or absent communication. Despite some clean units and decent neighbors, management is widely seen as inadequate, with renters advising improvements in responsiveness, maintenance, and security for a better living experience.
