    Review Summary for 267 Ovington Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent tenants at 267 OVINGTON AVENUE, Brooklyn, appreciate the building's spacious units and helpful supers. However, issues like thin walls leading to noise problems, roaches, and unresponsive landlords have been consistent concerns. The building's management needs to address pest control and maintenance more effectively. Despite efforts to tackle these issues, residents have experienced challenges with heating systems and outdated building infrastructure. Overall, while some recommend the building for its size and amenities, others highlight the need for proactive management to enhance the living experience and fully address lingering maintenance issues.

    Got better but issues remain
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good location, generally helpful supers, a lot of space for its price. Other people complain about roaches, but I never saw any since Elvis and Amela took over the building in 2020.
    Cons:
    Terrible soundproofing - one wall separating my apartment from the next one was put later (before that it was one unit) and is extremely thin; floors are very thin too. You can hear your neighbors all the time.

    The radiators banging would occasionally get extremely loud, to the point I couldn't sleep at night.

    Some neighbors were weird - an arrogant party guy (moved out later), at least three covid deniers.

    The owner was hard to reach and didn't accept electronic payments.

    Hallways could be cleaner and nicer.
    Advice to owner:
    Be more responsive and take better care of the building

    Do you love ROACHES?
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    it is a quiet building which is nice.
    Cons:
    Tons and tons and tons of roaches. lots of water leaks. Pealing ceilings. non responsive management. failure to fix water damage.

    There will be roaches in your bed, in your food, in your couch - legit everywhere.
    Advice to owner:
    GET RID OF THE INFESTATION OF ROACHES.

    Not as bad
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Only 6 Fl , live in super, very big apartment, high ceilings
    Cons:
    Very old Bldg, 1937(?) , so very loud heating system, crooked walls and floor( squeaking , so you can hear your neighbors too🤷🏻‍♀️) cockroaches big issue too, but mgmt trying to eliminate that issue
    Advice to owner:
    Apartment renovation should be done not only when tenants moving out
    Over 3 years ago
    Cockroaches and plumbing issues galore
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Quiet place, lots of space, good garbage management
    Cons:
    So many bugs, terrible landlords who won’t solve problems, repeated floodings that’s the LL doesn’t care about fixing (for me 4 times in 4 months at one point - landlords reaction was “you should feel bad about the guy upstairs because he has no family even though he won’t stop flooding your unit”) landlord never fixed the water damage in years of me being there.
    Advice to owner:
    Care more about fixing issues
