Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant reviews for buildings managed by Joshua Gotlib indicate consistent issues with unresponsiveness from management and poor maintenance, notably pest infestations including roaches and mice. Many buildings suffer from cleanliness problems and inadequate garbage management. Heating and water pressure are often unreliable, and some tenants report noise disturbances and difficult neighbor situations. Despite occasional praise for location and some renovated units, the general consensus is dissatisfaction due to neglectful property supervision and poor pest control efforts. Renters urge the management to be more proactive, responsive, and attentive to maintenance requests to improve tenant experience.

Reviews

Former tenant·5 months ago

1st Night saw roaches

Pros

It’s modern on the surface and quite

Cons

Roach infestation in every room. With droppings in every room. Killed close to 75 in one day.

Advice to the owners

Fix the pest issue

Former tenant·8 months ago

Chay Brito is the WORST Property Manager

Pros

There are two pros the cleaning staff and the fact it is close to the subway

Cons

Everything else. I complained about black mold, broken door, broken dryer, and it never got fixed. The property manager Chay Brito has "lost" payments even with proof of cash.

Advice to the owners

Get a property manager that actually does their job and not misplace their finances
