Craig was a pleasure to deal with -- extremely responsive, diligent, thoughtful, friendly, and professional. He regularly came to visit the work and took care of anything we needed. David and the workers were a pleasure to have here - they were friendly, very clean, respectful, and did outstanding work. They also started when they said they would, worked diligently and tirelessly to finish the job, and quickly took care of all the minor items at the end. Craig was also extremely fair with the changes we made throughout, which were priced extremely reasonably and fairly. We have no hesitation at all in recommending Craig and his team, and if we ever needed additional work done, they would be our first call.

We have a Board in place and all decisions are "supposed" to go through us. I say this because some of the HSC buildings are owned by them. All was great in the beginning when we had to fire our previous management co for a myriad of reasons. Josh Koppel was attentive and sprouting how he would take of everything, and how the previous mgmt co "should not mess with him". The transition was pretty much stress-free. We received monthly maintenance bills, they provided excellent, concise statements and I say that because this simple function was severely lacking at, our previous Mgmt Co. They referred porters, accountants, vendors, and a Lawyer, all of which we interviewed and hired. All seem to be going great until it wasn't. They would fail when it came to needing assistance in our storefront renters, problems with shareholder issues, finding solutions to building problems, loss in income, and answering calls and emails. All were met with rudeness, lies, and lack of attention. All is good if your building is making money and they don't have to do anything. There is so much grift and nepotism at HSC, it will make your head spin. I was warned before hiring them, "Josh Koppell likes to take over". I wasn't sure what that meant but I sure do now. He has to profit off every vendor and outsources almost every function so you end up paying several different entities in addition to their monthly fee, which was very inexpensive on the face. They sabotaged us. Offered no assistance during the pandemic where they continued to get paid and just watched us fall with losing so much in rental income. They try to divide and create riffs amongst board members- they like the ones that are silent and don't ask questions. They refuse to answer questions regarding finances and remove us from their "Master Plans" from which they profit off. I should add, almost every vendor is his relative, including those that are on his "Master Plans". Myra, the building Manager, should not go unmentioned either. She lies and her only job is to serve her boss. It's a joke that she is Manager.

Worst management company I've dealt with…read more Since HSC Management took over, the building has gone downhill fast. Ongoing elevator problems, essential services and amenities being taken offline, unresolved pest issues, and inconsistent heat have all become part of daily life. Communication is poor with no updates. Debra kaplan is a snake who avoids responsibility and is extremely rude to tenants on the phone. For the amount of rent being charged, this level of management is unacceptable. If you're considering a building run by HSC Management, proceed with caution.

I don't understand these other reviews, except to say that they must be by people who have a grudge. How can someone who lives in Florida live in building NYC? I looked up 710 and it is a co-op, so the management company is not who you would call. You would talk to the super first. They have always been very responsive to calls. The daily management of a building is left the supers of all co-ops, with the co-op boards making guided decisions about the funds and making other decisions about facilities. Maintenance of most buildings is usually managed buy the superintendents, and ours have always been great. We have had mostly incremental assessments over the time I have lived in the building, with the big ones to be expected of a pre-war building. A friend who is a real estate broker said that he is relieved when a building is managed by Blue Woods because he knows that the sale will go smoothly. While I have mostly dealt with the founder, our building is managed by Steve Wilson, and remains one of the best managed buildings in the neighborhood.

Barbara Groden is the owner and is the absolute worst of the bunch. She clearly has set the tone for all the employees to just ignore shareholders issues or flat out refuse to correct any issue that arises. The board should be embarrassed and ashamed for keeping this company as it is a hindrance to everyone who lives in the building. These are not rentals and people cannot just move out yo get away from this problem. This affects resale value of every person who lives in a building managed by this company. Also, the environment of your building is affected by neighbors who hate each other and there are actual fights between neighbors since the policy of West-Ex is to tell you to call the police on your neighbors rather than to enforce the "house rules".
