Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenants generally find Jeffrey Pikus’ buildings clean, well-located, and supported by friendly, responsive superintendents, particularly in East Village and certain Manhattan locations. Positive remarks include secure package handling, good outdoor spaces, and quiet neighborhoods near public transit. However, several buildings, especially on West 127th Street, suffer from serious pest infestations, slow or inadequate management response, and building maintenance issues like heating and water pressure problems. Some renters report misleading leasing information and cramped, poorly designed units with insufficient counter and storage space. Overall, responsive management seems inconsistent across properties; prospective renters should be cautious about pest control and verify lease conditions before signing.

Great apartment & outdoor space

Pros

Clean, well managed building. Packages are relatively safe - I have never gotten anything stolen and I have quite a few shipments come in each month, but I have heard some neighbors have had packages stolen, particularly during the holidays. Super and landlord are always very responsive. Great shared outdoor space - wonderful for having company over. Tenants have parties in the yard which can be noisy, but there is a rule that the yard cannot be used after 10pm which is generally followed.

Cons

Mice can be in the trash cans by the entrance - somewhat unavoidable. I have never seen a rodent inside the building. I have seen some very small bugs, but everything minor overall.
