J.K. Management Corporation

This company is awful. Because of their inaction, tenants live in apartments with lead paint, mold, and pests. DO NOT RENT WITH THEM. The building manager Yehuda Fridman harasses tenants by showing up to their apartments unannounced. He puts up signs telling tenants not to call 311. Another manager, Esther Jenkelowitz, hangs up on tenants who call to ask for repairs. She also claims she doesn’t get rent checks so they can work to take tenants to court for non payment, and withholds giving tenants their leases.

They are among the worst landlords in NYC. They should have zero stars or negative stars They falsely certify B and C class violation corrections to HPD They force tenants to live in apartments with lead paint, mold, rats/roaches, and they give tenants 2nd hand appliances that are already broken. Building manager Yehuda Fridman harasses tenants by showing up to their apartments unannounced. He puts up signs telling tenants not to call 311. And he has tried (and lost) to get tenants to stop effort to legally form a tenants association. Esther Jenkelowitz one of the manager hangs up on tenants who call to ask for repairs. She also claims she doesn’t get rent checks so they can work to take tenants to court for non payment, and withholds giving tenants their leases.

These are among the worst landlords/managers in the city. They treat their tenants like dirt. Their buildings are infested with vermin. They hang up on tenants who request repairs. They lie about receiving rent checks so they can evict tenants and jack up prices. It’s disgusting. They should be prosecuted and have their buildings taken away.

This management company is harming the tenants in their buildings and violating tenants’ rights. They: — falsely certify B and C class violation corrections to HPD — allow dangerous conditions to persist like lead paint, mold, pests and force tenants to use 2nd hand, already broken appliances — harass, intimidate and bully tenants, in an effort to stop them from organizing. Unacceptable! Do not hire this company.

J.K. Management Corporation deserves no stars. I have been dealing with this company for 10 years. The receptionist, office manager (Esther), and the property manager for my building are unprofessional. The property manager has knocked on my door and made ICE impersonation during a DOB inspection. Complains have been filed and nothing has been done. Esther continuously answers the phone in a rude manner and is dismissive when discussing concerns. The contractor, Z & Z Construction of NY, they hired for the building facade repair is also a reflection of the type of operation ran in this company. They are disgusting, the three laborers that work here use the buildings water hydrant to "shower" their bodies. They strip down to their underwear in the middle of the street. To make matters worse
