I think the reviews speak for themselves... poorly maintained properties, the super could care less about cleaning around the building, cleaning the halls and elevators, properly shoveling the steps and sidewalks - and responding to requests. There's roaches and mice - the pest control comes infrequently and only after multiple complaints to management... no fire alarm system in the hall nor extinguishers anywhere visible through the building.... a true shame. My buildings super has 3 cats in the basement (for sure a health code violation). The stench from the cats comes up to the 6th floor!!

Lovely bed bug from a Bronstein building in Brooklyn.
K.E. M.

Unless you enjoy keeping bed bugs as pets...RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN. DO NOT pay attention to how big the apartment may be, it's not worth any of the hassle or expense you will experience with the multiple issues that Bronstein will lie about. I live in a Bronstein apartment in Brooklyn with my fiance, small dog, and cat. After Bronstein made us jump through every hoop imaginable to officially sign our lease, they then decided to lie about the bed bug issue in our building. The vacant associate at Bronstein claimed at our lease signing that there was a bed bug problem in, "just one unit on the 4th floor" and never on the 5th floor (where we live) or anywhere else in the building, that we have nothing to worry about. My fiance then asked her again, "are you sure there was never a bed bug problem in our unit or surrounding units?" to which she replied, "Absolutely not, it was just one unit on the 4th floor and it was taken care of promptly." Fast forward one month after move-in, and I'm covered in bed bug bites. After speaking with all our surrounding neighbors, they all confirmed that they too have bed bugs, and have notified Bronstein of the issue numerous times over the past 2 years. After calling the exterminator (Bronstein won't call, you must call, this must be too difficult of a task for them), we were given the protocol for extermination: Basically, packing up all our belongings, washing every piece of clothing we own, and living out of plastic bags for 2-4 weeks. Let's not even talk about how the extermination company claimed that the pesticide they use is 100% pet safe as long as the pets were out of the apartment for 4 hours (which we followed precisely), then come a week later, both our pets had been extremely ill. Now on top of living out of plastic bags, we get the added fun and expense of vet bills! Don't even get me started on the non-functional elevator, not having a mailbox key for over a month, having to beg for a smoke detector (against the law?), the lazy super that claims any and every issue is "not part of my job description", and the building manager that NEVER returns a phone call! I have lived in 3 other buildings in Brooklyn since moving to the city, and even though none of them have been perfect, none have had bed bugs or lied as much as this terrible management company. Run away as far as you can and live in any other building. p.s. If you have a pet, Bronstein will not care about its welfare (see note above about the lying exterminator); however, they do demand a $1,000 dog deposit prior to signing the lease ! They also enjoy keeping this a secret until you're about to sign the lease. WTF?? !

See all

If I could give Tomer Hatuka 10 stars, I absolutely would!…read more I had been living remotely in another state for a few years and suddenly needed to move back to Queens with very little notice. I contacted more than 40 brokers over the course of two weeks, and no one was able to help. I was ignored, told my budget was unrealistic, or advised to wait until the rental market improved. Unfortunately, none of those options were possible for me--I was running out of time and desperately needed a place to live. I came across Tomer's ad online and reached out late at night to ask about seeing the apartment. By the next morning, he had confirmed a showing, and I was on my way from Manhattan to Queens. From our very first interaction, Tomer was responsive, efficient, and genuinely helpful. The first apartment I went to see ultimately wouldn't have been ready in time for my move-in date. I was already preparing to leave New York empty-handed and was running out of options. I had broken the lease on my current apartment and was facing the possibility of having nowhere to live. I asked Tomer if he happened to have anything else available. Instead of telling me to lower my expectations or wait it out, Tomer was incredibly understanding. He told me about another apartment he had that wasn't even listed online and asked if I could come back a few hours later to see it. A couple of hours later, he texted me to confirm the details. I had just checked out of my hotel and was rushing back to Queens with my luggage and my dog in tow. The entire day was chaotic and incredibly stressful, but Tomer remained calm, accommodating, and professional. Within hours of meeting me for the first apartment, he had arranged another showing. And that second apartment checked every box--and, most importantly, it was available for my move-in date! I told him I wanted it, and he immediately sent me the application by email. From that point forward, everything was seamless. Tomer has been incredibly responsive by both email and text, and he has always been clear, organized, and upfront about everything I needed to know. He turned an extremely stressful situation into one that felt manageable, and I genuinely couldn't be more grateful. If I hadn't met Tomer, I honestly don't know how much longer I would have been searching. I would wholeheartedly recommend Tomer to anyone looking for an apartment. He truly went above and beyond for me, and if I ever need to move again, he will be the first person I call!

My bf and I were looking for an apartment for two months to no avail - a lot of brokers do the ole…read morebait and switch which is incredibly misleading not to mention beyond frustrating. I was lucky enough to stumble upon this listing within two hours or so of it being posted. I called, left a detailed voicemail and less than 5 mins I got a call back from Jonathan. Immediately I was at ease just from his voice - yes, that's a thing. He sounded calm, collected and easy going. Next thing you know, we're driving to see the property, same day. I mean, does it sound like it's meant to be or what?!? Anyhoo, we get there and the pictures are exactly like the real thing. So many postings make the place seem bigger than it is so I was so relieved. I knew I wanted to sign right away. Jonathan made the whole process so much easier and reassuring. He was attentive and extremely responsive - I never felt like I was left "hanging. " Even if he couldn't get back to me with a specific inquiry, he would text me an update. My bf really wanted to see one more property but his contact was taking DAYS to get back to him which just goes to show how unreliable other brokers can be. So I was like, screw your contact, Jonathan is our guy just say yes! Lol All in all, a great experience and I'm so grateful we crossed paths considering how emotionally draining apartment hunting already is. Now that we have the lease signed, all that's left is to do is fight about the furniture. Yay!

I rarely leave reviews, but my experience with Venture NY Property Management has been deeply…read morefrustrating. I simply asked for clarification regarding newly imposed co-op insurance requirements and how the coverage thresholds were determined. Rather than receiving transparent answers or supporting documentation, I was repeatedly told the requirements were "non-negotiable," threatened with fines, and ultimately informed that management would "not engage further" because the conversation had become "repetitive." As a shareholder, asking reasonable questions about building policies, insurance requirements, and risk management should not be treated as an inconvenience. At no point was any actual explanation provided regarding whether these limits were based on insurer recommendations, legal counsel, lender requirements, claims history, or any formal analysis. Instead, responses felt dismissive, defensive, and unnecessarily combative. Professional property management should include transparency, accountability, and respectful communication with residents -- especially when imposing financial requirements and penalties. I hope ownership takes shareholder concerns more seriously moving forward and improves how management communicates with residents.

I wish I could put more than 5 stars because Abigail and George deserve way more than 5! After…read morepatiently waiting for months and months while my parents went back and forth over whether to sell or not, we were finally able to stick to our plan and list and stay listed with Abigail and George. Within just one week, we got more than 10 offers, many above asking price!! We took the offer we liked the best and proceeded with the deal. Our biggest obstacle was cleaning out the house, so Abigail and George referred to us two great companies to help out. They also continually checked in the whole time, to see if we needed any other help whatsoever. When we lost an important paper, Abigail helped us get another copy and even printed it out for my Dad since she knew he was busy cleaning up and might not even have a printer working anymore. Abigail said she thought of my parents like her own and she meant it 100%! On the final day when they had to hand over their keys, my parents still weren't fully done cleaning out, so Abigail herself helped move things and disassemble things (I'm sure George would have too, but he was at another appt). She even stored some stuff into her own car and brought it over to my sister's to temporarily store for my parents. Where else will you find brokers as caring, thoughtful, and compassionate as Abigail and George? If you are looking to buy or sell in Queens, you must contact them. It will be one of the best decisions you ever make!

The photos taken of our unit were lovely, and I really think helped to increase engagement and offers. They were also very proactive and gave great advice in dealing with the stressful process of getting buyer board approval. We would absolutely recommend them for handling a sale! They were possibly the one aspect of the process that did not add to our stress but instead helped it.
