I am a current renter who has lived here for several years, and I am sharing this review across platforms to strongly caution anyone considering renting here under Sparrow Property Management unless you are prepared for neglect, poor communication, and a steadily declining property.
Since Sparrow Property Management took over, the building has gone downhill quickly. The property is consistently filthy -- common areas are dirty, trash is poorly maintained, and basic upkeep is not being done. It feels like no one is responsible for keeping the building livable.
Basic services are also being neglected. For example, there has been no heat in the lobby or elevators for over 72 hours, with no vendors on-site to address the issue.
Snow removal is inadequate and unsafe. Entrances, sidewalks, and walkways are poorly cleared during storms, creating dangerous conditions for residents.
Management is essentially nonexistent. The property manager is rarely on-site, there is no visible oversight, and communication is terrible. When issues are raised, they are often ignored or dismissed. Being told directly that "monitoring the property is not her job" is both shocking and unacceptable.
Like many renters, I do not currently have the financial ability to move, so I am forced to live with these declining conditions.
There is no pride in maintaining this property and no real accountability. Profit has clearly taken priority over providing a clean and safe living environment. AVOID THIS BUILDING AT ALL COSTS! read more
