It's rare to find a team so reliable and easy to work with in property management, and it's made my experience living here seamless and stress-free.

Having lived in 5 different apartments under a variety of different property managers before Mr. Jones, I can say his communication and transparency is a rarity and refreshing change in New York. The quick responsiveness to address any questions and concerns I've had has been greatly appreciated. The unit we've moved into is a true gem in Clinton Hill, with some of the best value for my rent I've come across in all my apartment hunting. If you're looking for a trustworthy landlord, while feeling confident in the apartment you'd like to move into, look no further - you've found it.

I wish them the best of luck!

What? A real estate agent that actually works to earn their commission? Yes, miracles do exist…read more The hubby and I wandered into this real estate agency after seeing an apt a couple blocks away. We sat down with one of the real estate agents and she seemed completely confused and befuddled by our wants (an apt). Step in Josephine. We sat down with her an explained what we were looking for. Challenge. We had no jobs, a dog and a really weird timeframe to work with, plus we lived out of state. She found what seemed like a great apt within our limited budget and was willing to show my sister the place since I was out of town by that point. Someone else ended up getting the place because my sister just couldn't get there in time. Fast forward a few months. Numerous delays kept us from moving. I called Josephine and left a message. Within an hour, she called me back. She wasn't too hopeful that we'd find anything that fit us but said she'd call us back if something popped up on the radar. Lo and behold, two weeks later, she did call back and had found a place that met our criteria. Ultimately we ended up finding an apt through owner via craigslist. The only time I've felt bad. This is the one real estate agent I would have gladly paid a broker's fee. I cannot recommend her enough if you need an agent for Kensington or Windsor Terrace.

Any issues with tenants he has dealt with from going to court for representation or assisting with finding me someone to fix a small issue at a very cheap price. He's helped me a lot and I can not recommend him enough as a property manager. He also manages one of my cousins house after he had to relocate and goes above and beyond to ensure everything is in working condition and the tenants are happy. I definitely recommend if you need someone to manage a building, commercial property or residential property. Oh! And he's available ALL THE TIME which is great he always answered my questions or concerns very promptly and the tenants say the same!

Dorothy (ex-101), who sits at the front desk, said, "It is a privilege to be allowed back into the…read moreapartment" Due to the comment above by Dorothy, I am writing this review. The quick backstory to why "back into the apartment" was said. A fire on November 2022, caused half of the building to be temporarily vacant. My grandmother was one of the apartments affected. Fast forward, it is now the end of April 2023, and my grandmother has not moved back into her home. Due to the water damage caused by the fire, and the repairs made to the damages, my grandmother is now allowed to "move back in". Upon receiving back the key, as another person would do, we expected the apartment to make sure it was indeed moveable. We noticed issues before the fire with the bathroom and the kitchen have not been resolved. Since we've complained to the office about the living conditions of the bathroom and kitchen many times, we decided to redress the issue before moving back into the apartment. On April 27, 2023, my mother went on behalf of my grandmother to the Jones Equities office to request repairs before my grandmother returned to her home. Resubmitting the photos and readdressing the issue, Dorothy told my mother; 1. If repairs are made, the rent goes up, and 2. "It is a privilege to be allowed back into the apartment." My grandmother has rented from Jones Equities for over 30 years. Her first apartment at 415 Argyle Rd, Apt 3F, was forced to move out due to unfair rent increases, having to downgrade and move into her current apartment. My grandmother took the apartment because it was affordable and out of fear of the thought of being homeless. The video of the flood happened in August 2019. (unable to upload video on here) A pipe burst inside of her toilet, and the fire department was called, resulting in them having to go deep inside the toilet to tighten the pipe that caused the flood. Due to the flood not being her fault, my grandmother was promised by one of the former managers she would be reimbursed for all damages that were caused to her belongings. My grandmother was never reimbursed. My grandmother went out of her savings to replace all of her belongings. My grandfather who suffers from multiple sclerosis was moved to a nursing home due to his falls because of the uneven floors. My grandmother now suffers from dementia, and being in a familiar place with a loved one to care for her will help aid. However, living under these circumstances is not livable. From the patch-up work underneath the toilet and the walls in the bathroom. The floors, the bare minimum paint job on the kitchen cabinets, and barely open draws are disgusting and disrespectful. It is disrespectful to state it is a privilege to move back into your home when you were a victim of unforsaken circumstances! It is clear that the situation regarding the apartment is unacceptable, and the response from the office staff is utterly insensitive to the long-term tenant's needs. The lack of proper repairs and compensation for damages caused by the flood and the uneven floors pose a significant risk to the safety and well-being of the tenant and her family. It is essential that Jones Equities address these issues immediately and provide proper support and compensation to their tenants. To say that it is a privilege to move back into one's home is disrespectful and shows a lack of empathy and care for their tenants. Landlords and property management companies must prioritize the safety and well-being of their tenants and provide them with the respect and dignity they deserve.

We NEVER received ANY document signed (or any communication or proof of life whatsoever) from the person we were allegedly subletting from. We were harassed and cursed at in our apartment by the misogynistic handymen on more than one occasion. There was a dead tenant in a unit on the first floor for 6 months and they never did a wellness check. Then they pushed us to move out and refused us the option to sign a legit lease to reside there a second year... and then one day Danny showed up at our door with literally 20 people to give tours of our unit after texting us just a a few hours earlier requesting to give tours to "a few" groups. He did not wait for us to respond consenting to the tours before he showed up with a crowd at our door, and he became very angry when after the 8th tour group we began to express discomfort with him bringing such a large volume of strangers into the apartment, given that he failed to give sufficient notice and had obviously intentionally misrepresented the number of tours he intended to give. He raised his voice at us once we spoke up for ourselves and called me a "m*therf*cker" when I told him to leave after he completed all the tours. Please please please save yourselves from the headache and disrespect from these guys. I wish we had been warned about them.
