All 12 tenant reviews.

“Unit 2 Pros: Monthly pest control during summer Easy to rent, no proof of employment was needed (which is honestly crazy) Cons: Younger tenants, very loud at all hours Almost no contact/ response from super or property manager, luckily there were no major issues hopefully they would respond if there was Advice to landlord: Ensure property manager is responding to tenants emails”

“Pros: Laundry in unit Cons: Roaches management never did anything. Leak in apartment management took hours to fix. Dead rat outside of door. Packages frequently stolen.”

“Pros: Live in super. Good area, everything is close by. Cons: Mice problem, drainage problems Advice to landlord: Building needs better pest control”

“Pros: Apartment was very nicely renovated, great lighting, washer/dryer. Area and building was super safe, lovely park nearby Cons: Rats in the building, management was not responsive and did not do anything much to help. Hard to get hold of the super. Advice to landlord: Pests in the building is a big problem please address it”

“Pros: It was cute, nice amount of space (for students, not families) and the location was a big plus point Cons: Heat was terrible, management was a nightmare, we had rats and they didn’t refund our deposit Advice to landlord: Better pest control and better interior in the building outside of the apartments”

“Pros: Great kitchen and apt size/layout. Nice location close to Carl Shurz park Cons: Mautner Glick was really bad management, but I believe they’ve gone out of business. Old building, and the walls have definitely been painted over a ton of times, unless they’ve done recent renos (possible!)”

“Pros: The location is great and the light is stunning in the upper units. Neighbors are friendly. Cons: Brighton bought this building after my first year here and it has been an unimaginable nightmare. Consistently no heat, no hot water, and several of the apartments are under construction. The contractors have ruined the building, created tons of dust, and are here at all hours of the day and night including weekends. The super keeps changing, management doesn't have a valid phone number half the time. The noise from the construction is so loud and the lack of hot water are literally making me feel crazy. If you see Brighton anywhere near your lease- run in the other direction. Advice to landlord: Find a different profession idk if this is for you.”

“Pros: Nice enough building, fairly clean Cons: Heat and hot water regularly broken, super/management hard to contact and they don’t follow-up. Renovation contractors are awful, working at all hours, spreading debris and plaster all over the building.”

“Pros: The area is great. Cons: I read the other reviews, and we’re all on the same page. Management doesn’t respond, Super is awful. They really don’t care. Things broken, dirty, rodents to name a few. If you take a tour, don’t trust broker, ask a current tenant instead. It’s a shame because the neighbors are decent, and the place is in such a great area. Advice to landlord: Please just do the basics for your tenants. Shame on all of you.”

“Pros: Newly renovated apartments and entryway Cons: Some apartments have a pest problem and the owners are slow to respond and take action. Meanwhile their tenants are living with rodents coming into their home due to rushed and poorly done construction during renovations. Advice to landlord: Respond in a timely and actionable manner for your tenants. Do NOT let a rodent problem persist. ALWAYS inspect final construction.”

“Pros: Quiet place to live Cons: Management could be more responsive”

“Pros: Neighborhood is nice, neighbors in building are nice Cons: When I moved into this building the broker lied and said the unit I rented was the only vacant apartment in the building. A month later they started a MASSIVE gut renovation of probably about 12 (maybe more apartments) and all of the common area. Renovations have been going on for five months with numerous workers coming and going all week long. The workers do not always wear masks (we’re still in a pandemic). The building is filthy due to the renovations. The buzzer/intercom system has not worked for 5 months. The super is often unresponsive. We’ve had no hot water on many occasions, and sometimes, no water at all! We’ve also gone without heat on some of the coldest winter days. The management company never responds to emails. Just ...don’t. Advice to landlord: Be more considerate of the tenants who reside in this building.”
