RUN FAR AWAY
Pros
Some of the neighbors are well mannered, polite, and considerate.
Cons
Everything. This is a terrible building management company. The super is atrocious and RACIST. He and his family are living free in several of the units and are known for stealing packages, harassing tenants, and cursing them out in Russian. They will not assist tenants unless they tip large sums for small jobs or for work that was owed by the building i.e installing rail guards and putting locks on doors. This building and many of their other units have a serious infestation problem with mice, rats, and roaches. There is mold in all of the apartment buildings and they will never address it, at the bare minimum they will paint over the area. Their bathrooms are glazed with toxic chemicals. There is no ventilation and the walls are paper thin. The super and the family employed contractors, “NY Galaxy Contractors” all live in the building at every floor. They spy on tenants and have been known to threaten a tenant if they deem them “problematic”. One of the supers daughters attempted to push me down the flight of steps in the buildings vestibule area. I could go on about the lack of professionalism, nepotism, and unsafe maintenance. Management is well aware of the issues and it is so known that even the tenants in neighboring buildings are aware of the theft, unprofessionalism, and pure negligence of both management, the super, and their contractors. Do yourself a favor and google the company to see all of their horrible reviews at their various units. Do not let children live here, their health will decline and management will not give a care in the world.
Advice to the owners
Samson Management LLC
Needs Significant Improvement
Pros
Great Location, Beautiful Archways, Spacious Rooms
Cons
The pest control needs major improvement. My apartment has become infested with cockroaches. They pop out of the walls at all times. My efforts to maintain the apartment clean and personal pest preventive measures are no match for the infestation of the building. The building lacks a preventive measure and the management believes the pest issue isn’t that big of a deal. The super has a day job and not easy to coordinate with. Super requires constant follow up and will often make shoddy repairs. The elevator breaks down 3-4 times a year.
Advice to the owners
Send tenants questionnaires to learn what could improve. Also, work with super on being more accessible, improving pest control and improving quality of repairs.
