Prospect Management

Prospect mgt has been fantastic to work with and I would recommend them to anyone Godly has been awesome

If I could give zero stars, I would. I live at 333 Greene Avenue in Brooklyn. This «luxury» building is everything but. Both the fridge and the dishwasher have had endless malfunctions. The heaters/​AC units also malfunction regularly — keeping my apartment at either an ungodly high temp or freezing low temp. The shower leaks. And speaking of the shower, ever since it started to get cold, we’ve had only 6 minutes worth of hot water per day — and I have two roommates, so basically only one of us is able to take a hot shower per day. Half the door people are dimwits and have lost several of my packages, and I have heard from many other tenants that this has happened to them as well. The super doesn’t speak a word of English and probably gets paid $ 2 an hour by the slumlord owner — he doesn’t know how to fix a thing. On top of all of this, any time I contact the management, they say they’ll send the aforementioned super — and of course, he never shows up. DO NOT RENT FROM PROSPECT MGMT, ESPECIALLY AT 333 GREENE!

If I could give a ZERO star review I would. Worst management company ever-​does not tend to tenants, refuses to do basic maintenance, does work in building without permits, does everything ad hoc, and violates fair housing laws. Also, management is not reachable after 5pm or weekends, and supers are not able to take action without direction from management. Avoid living in one of these buildings at all costs!!! Worst experience ever…

I really wish this I could give them 0 starts because this is slumlord at its worst.
I don’t know how many times I have to call the cops on the own (Moses Berkovics) and there rude workers.
I don’t know how many times I have to call 311 on them to get things fix.
Even worst from February and March we had no heat and hot water. When we called the office to tell them that we had no heat or hot water there lovely response is «we are going to get right on it» or they would just hang up the phone on us.
Anyone who give’s them a good rating I would be suspicious about because they are know for buying people out.

I rented a unit in one of their properties between August 2012-​August 2013, and have nothing but bad things to say about my experience.
The building was apparently built as condos, but the developer pulled out, and the units were converted to apartments. Evidence of shoddy workmanship abounds. My roommate’s bedroom suffered a major leak that lasted about a week. We were told it was caused by poor fastening of the hot water lines leading to the AC unit. We had to wrestle with management over receiving rent credits as roughly 2/​3s of our unit was uninhabitable for over a weeks. My bedroom also suffered a leak, but was thankfully very small and was fixed quickly thanks to the super.
Their promotional material stated bike rooms, a doorman*, and a microwave in each unit. These were not provided. One of the lease riders stated that there would be two bike rooms and a yoga room. Those were not provided.
There was either gross miscommunication between management and the realty company, or flat-​out lying, as we were told by one party that laundry facilities would be available by move-​in, and by another that it would take a month. If I recall correctly, laundry was not available for two months.
Lastly, it took two months to receive our deposit. Our attempts to retrieve the deposit check involved multiple phone calls, emails, and a lawyer. Our lawyer stated in his communication to management, that the check should be overnighted, and certified. It was mailed through USPS, and was not a certified check. After the check finally arrived, it bounced. Management incorrectly printed the routing and/​or account number, causing multiple fees to be levied. Our lawyer made them aware of the issues, and we were told a new check was to be issued and would be sent the following day (September 12). This check was postmarked September 16. The second check cleared, but did not include the accrued fees, and it took another week to confirm the mailing of that check (EDIT: Received on October 8). On top of all that, no interest was reported, as required by law.
If you can avoid renting from them, do.
*Eventually a part-​time attendant was hired. Along with the super, my roommate and I felt bad for their poor treatment by management.

Good luck getting your deposit back. The landlord wouldnt fix anything and claims there was damage to the apartment but would be no further specific when there was nothing more than basic wear to the apartment. Not worth losing the 5K deposit.
