Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants report that SMRC MGMT LLC properties have spacious apartments in desirable Brooklyn locations with friendly neighbors and some helpful supers. However, management is widely criticized for poor responsiveness to maintenance and pest control issues, including persistent bedbug, rodent, and roach infestations. Heating and water pressure problems are frequent and often inadequately addressed. Garbage and cleanliness standards vary, with some buildings suffering dirty common areas. Rent stabilization is common but perceived as exploited for rent hikes without corresponding upgrades. Communication is lacking, with unreliable repairs and distrust toward management. Overall, renters should expect ongoing maintenance neglect and subpar management despite attractive apartment features.

Great community, terrible management

Pros

Big apartments, quiet neighborhood, friendly neighbors

Cons

The management company is AWFUL. They will not help you with pest issues, repairs are done so shoddily. The super has ruined my furniture trying to fix things. They have the max legal rent hike every year, and I’m pretty sure they did something shady to destabilize most of the units. The leases are all a sublease from the fake co-op they created. Management will gaslight you saying there are no issues and you are lying about what you are experiencing.

Advice to the owners

Be a kind human and do your job.

Okay not great

Pros

Neighbors are friendly. Have never had any issues with noise. Location is convenient to subway, restaurants and bars.

Cons

Pest control is not great. Heat during the winter is not consistent. Building management is not that responsive to issues.

Advice to the owners

Building needs to do a better job with pest control and providing heat during the winter. Bare minimum.
