Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants of buildings managed by Ben Haghani frequently express frustration with poor management responsiveness, citing delays and lack of effort in addressing maintenance issues such as heating failures and persistent pest infestations. Cleanliness and garbage management are often subpar, exacerbating the overall living condition. Noise disturbances, especially near commercial areas, and disruptive neighbors further impact tenant satisfaction. While some find the location and renovated apartments appealing, ongoing problems with pests, repairs, and unprofessional management reduce their willingness to recommend these buildings. Improvements in communication, timely maintenance, pest control, and building upkeep are essential for a better tenant experience under this landlord.

unresponsive, uncaring management + landlord

Pros

we've grown to enjoy our space. unfortunate the building is managed so poorly.

Cons

we've had various issues throughout the past year (pipes bursting, roaches, boiler breaking down) that are pretty common in nyc, but the biggest issue is that NO one (management, super, landlord) puts in effort to address issues. we always had to send numerous follow-up reminders and wait for long periods to get anything fixed.

Horrible Management and building

Pros

in building laundry

Cons

Pest infestations : horrible Inadequate hot water during the winter, the hot water boiler broke down more than 5 times and we had 0 hot water during the first snowfall of the year when it was the coldest. It was ridiculous. Property Manager is a very rude person.
