Review summary

Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.

Tenant feedback on Joshua Gotlib's buildings reveals significant challenges with building maintenance and management responsiveness. Common issues include poor cleanliness, persistent pest infestations, malfunctioning building infrastructure (e.g., elevators, entrance doors), and weak garbage management. Tenants frequently report unresponsive or slow management, lack of communication, and unresolved safety concerns such as drug activity and broken security features. Heating and water pressure problems also recur. Despite occasionally decent apartment layouts and friendly neighbors in some locations, the overall tenant experience suffers from neglected upkeep and unaddressed tenant grievances. Prospective renters should anticipate management difficulties and ongoing maintenance concerns in these properties.

Reviews

Former tenant·9 months ago

Resident for 5 years

Pros

I really enjoyed my apt lay out and space. Also, Elevator building.

Cons

Often times, drug addicts would be sitting in the stairway doing drugs, the cleanliness of the building was horrible. My apartment had a roach infestation, and i am a very clean/meticulous person, which lead me to believe the sewer system was not being properly maintained. The trash outside of the building was always over flowing. The elevator was very unreliable. Any inquiries sent to management would be ignored. The building entrance door was always broken, which allowed homeless people to enter and hang out in the lobby area.
