Reviewing a management company is a bit like evaluating a car dealership, there is a tainted…read moreindustry presumption they are all deceitful, so you are wary to believe or trust them, or rely upon the truthfulness of online commentary and referrals. So, it is important to acknowledge and appreciate exceptions of excellent service and reliability; praising individuals who show competency and pride in their job duties, along with respect, courtesy, and value in their interactions. VNYPM has proven themselves to be this anomaly, deviating from low expectations by restoring confidence and care, rather than sustaining doubt and apathy. As a shareholder for nearly 20 years, in a Pre-War Queens Co-op building, my comparative observations about the detached, duplicitous, ineffective multiple management companies, and unqualified absent Supers I have had the misfortune to witness; have been transformed by Anes with his conscientious responsive team. Especially outstanding, Amy with her diligence, kindness, and delightful sense of humor; and, Izeta with her empathy, flexibility, and trustworthiness. Anes, one of the owners, is accessible via email or phone, and has responded promptly with genuine concern and diplomacy to any urgent matter I have had, particularly health related required accommodations. Thanks to Anes employing Neoly, we finally have a professionally skilled, and dependable live-in Super, who is attentive, friendly, and hard-working. When VNYPM was hired several years ago by our newly elected board, they took over a huge mess; from financial debt and instability, to prior mismanagement negligence, a mendacious incapable Super arduous to fire, and many complicated major repair and maintenance issues. Throw in a pandemic, which created complex and combative lockdown and safety issues to navigate, and additional financial strain on the residents and building. Because of the smart guidance and leadership of VNYPM, and their recommendations and partnership to the Board, it is really remarkable we are now in the best financial shape this building has ever been in, with visible improvements of a modernized elevator, and demolition and installation of tiled stones to our expansive exterior entrance. Looking forward to seeing the interior painting started, and floor cleaning finished, which will make all the difference to re-establish its faded glory, Every building's situation and priorities are different, but they all have the same management needs for dedication, responsibility, accountability, consistency, transparency, prompt honest communication, and decisive action. Management companies are being hired for their expertise, but, let's not forget they work for us, even though they are managing us! VNYPM shows an understanding of this reciprocal relationship, and how properly servicing these demands guarantees mutual success and stability for them, and our residential buildings. VNYPM is receptive to suggestions to what they could do differently or better so they can continue to grow and learn, efficiently problem-solve, and provide the highest client satisfaction. This open readiness to listen, is a significant distinction for me. I applaud VNYPM's willingness to think outside the box, and knowing when to compromise wisely. They offer creative innovative solutions, using only limited available resources, that realize the individualized vision for each building. This makes them uniquely qualified in my estimation, as they are both frugal, and inventive. Hope my positive review provides clarity in your consideration of VNYPM to manage your property.

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 was…read morea bit spooked by a lot of the reviews here, but needed to be out of my home by Jan 1 and options were limited. Ira got our file approved within 24 hours, tho due to New Years and the weekend right after, he was very honest about us not being able to move in til Monday the 5th. Not ideal, but honesty and communication go a long way, especially after two months of dealing with very unresponsive brokers and agents. We did not pay any fees or deposits up front besides a $100 application fee. Our file was not the strongest (freelance/non recurring income and low credit) and Ira not only worked fast to get us approved by the landlord, he was communicative throughout the process without us needing to prompt him. All things considered, I viewed the unit on Dec 31, and we moved in Jan 5th - one of the fastest move in processes I've had in 19 years of living in NYC. Many thanks to Ira and Brooklyn Rentals for coming through quickly when we were in a pinch, in a holiday season.

What should have been a simple approval for a lead inspection in my co-op turned into weeks of unnecessary stress. Despite sending multiple emails and making repeated phone calls, I was left to figure out the process on my own. Instead of receiving clear guidance from the beginning, I had to spend countless hours contacting different people just to get basic answers. When I finally spoke with Stefani Johnston, I felt that my concerns were being dismissed because I was understandably frustrated after weeks of poor communication. she finally provided the guidance and assistance that could have been offered from the very start, which would have prevented so much confusion, wasted time, and unnecessary stress. In my experience, the communication was POOR, there was little accountability, and the level of professionalism fell well below what I expected from a management company. If you're dealing with AKAM Associates, be prepared to micromanage every step of the process if you want anything to get done. This experience left me feeling unsupported and extremely disappointed.
