The past property manager Laura, finally left. She did not understand the meaning of customer…read moreservice. Had to endure her since Amber Management, started manageing our property. The new property manager is cordial but does not respond to your complaints consistently. The reason is because there are so many complaints. Lived in building for 37 years and Amber and this new management company they merged with is incompetent as well. No one wants to do their job. I have complained about drugs being sold in building many times. The tenant is still there. She and others in her apartment make a mess in the hall outside her door, which is also is outside my door. Food crumbs constantly on carpet. Tenants should be investigated before they are able to lease. The laundry room is disgusting. The machines are constantly out of order and not clean or sanitize. This company we lease these machines from, should be terminated. Never had the uncleanness in the laundry room or issues with the machines until this company took over. The worst!

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.

If you value fairness, honesty, and basic human decency, stay far away from HSC Management. This…read morecompany operates with a shocking lack of integrity, preying particularly on elderly tenants with made-up charges and bogus legal threats. Their strategy seems clear: overwhelm tenants--many of whom may not have the resources to fight back--with frivolous court cases, hoping they'll either give up or be unable to keep up with their demands. Instead of acting as responsible property managers, HSC Management treats its tenants like easy targets for exploitation. Maintenance issues go ignored, communication is abysmal, and their billing practices are outright fraudulent. They invent fees out of thin air and use legal intimidation as a tool to squeeze money out of people who've done nothing wrong. It's one thing to run a business poorly, but it's another to do so with outright malice. HSC Management embodies everything wrong with slumlords--deceptive, predatory, and utterly indifferent to the well-being of the people they're supposed to serve.

We were looking for a rental space in Yonkers NY for 3 college students. We fell in love with…read moreproperty, the owner and found the listing agent, IRIS K., very informative. We explained we were making the visit on behalf of the two other girls as everyone lived out of state. We visited a few more properties in the area and circled back to this one. We informed Iris that one of the roommates required a medical alert dog (as we weren't originally informed). She got a bit rude with us and said there was NO WAY the owner was going to allow that. We asked her to ask since the Fair Housing in NY protects people with disabilities. She was very rude and said "if it comes down to you guys and someone else without a dog ... we are going to pick the other people!" She said this on a call with three other people listening into. Needless to say ... we never heard from her again. Please don't use this agent... if she would do THIS, what else would she possibly do??

I have lived in a building managed by Blue Woods for 27 years and have found them to be incredibly…read morediligent. 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.

During the 3 years that BW managed my building - they took very little responsibility for the upkeep of the bldg (daily and preventative maintenance), mismanaged our funds, and had no concept of how to leverage basic technology (i.e. email management)... I would not recommend them!!

Owen and Matthew were attentive, listened to our requests, provided answers to all of our questions in record time, and walked us through the whole process clearly and efficiently. Every recommendation they made throughout the process worked out great, from the home inspector to the lawyer that closed the deal. I would not hesitate to work with them again. Owen was recommended to us by a Douglas Elliman agent in Brooklyn, Renata Thomas, who is also a star! I can't thank all of them enough for making our move to the suburbs as easy as possible.
