Review Summary for Aej 530 East 88TH LLC

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.

Recent tenant reviews highlight buildings managed by AEJ 530 EAST 88TH LLC as generally well-maintained with friendly neighbors. Residents appreciate the responsiveness of the super and exterminators. However, concerns include lack of control over heat, occasional rodent issues, rent increases after one year, and absence of two-year lease options. Suggestions include addressing floor creaks, improving security measures, and offering longer leases. Despite some challenges, the building's location, spacious units, and family-friendly environment make it a desirable choice for many renters.

4 year resident

Former Tenant

Pros:

Like the place. Spacious, nice location by the park.

Cons:

Too hot during winter and you cannot control the heat. No ac unit in the apartment so you need to install yourself. Occasional rodent issues but the building sends exterminators every month.

A nice quiet home

Former Tenant

Pros:

Love how family friendly this building is and that the units are larger than average. Super is very responsive & even helped install my AC

Cons:

They will jack up the rent as high as possible after 1 year so be ready for it. They don’t offer 2 year leases

Advice to owner:

Offer two year leases

Nice area, apt is better than average. Unreasonable landlord.

Former Tenant

Pros:

Usually fairly clean and well maintained. Nice neighbors. Renovated apartments with higher quality materials than is usual in NYC (especially kitchen).

Cons:

No cooking gas, oven and stove, for 6 months. Refused compensation.
Rent increase during Covid in rent down market. Refusal to negotiate.
Extremely creaky floors need redoing.
Our buzzer never worked. We were told to give the door-code for deliveries or go downstairs to open the door.
Mice and cockroaches and basement / laundry area seems dirty.
Packages go missing frequently. No security cameras.
Bathrooms need fans (mold).

Advice to owner:

Fix floors and negotiate on rent if you enjoy not losing money and not having lots of vacancies. And clean up the basement. Install cameras downstairs. Fix the buzzer.
