Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant feedback for buildings managed by Joseph Soleimani reveals a mixed picture. While some properties feature recently renovated units and friendly neighbors, many reviews highlight persistent issues with pests, cleanliness, and poor maintenance. Garbage management and heating are frequently problematic, with reports of slow or unresponsive management and frequent maintenance delays. Several buildings suffer from security concerns and noisy environments. Positive notes include some well-maintained amenities and occasional responsive owners or supers. Overall, renters should expect varied management quality, with some buildings requiring significant improvements in upkeep, pest control, and communication to enhance tenant satisfaction and safety.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 minutes ago

Cute, but very cheaply flipped

Pros

Neighbors are friendly. Location is okay, on a little side street. The apartments are all very recently remodeled, so they look great, and the appliances are all new and nice.

Cons

Roaches. Also, the very recent remodeling was pretty cheaply done: after a year, floors will warp, walls will crack, every surface will have chips and dings. Also, NYPD is always hanging out nearby acting shady.

Building review Cypress ave

Pros

The neighbors are friendly

Cons

There is a new superintendent every few months. The building management/maintenance takes forever to fix the apartment. Many Rodents throughout the building. The heat barely works during the winter.
