Thank you Mike for signing the anti harassment bill. Slum lord Bitter and Rafael just had the rug pulled out from under them. These yiddish towel heads are going to have more suits slapped on them than Enron. DO NOT RENT FROM THESE CHARLATANS. Rafael's lawyer must be foaming at the mouth he is going to be a very busy man. RIP rafael and bitter. Folks the city of new york has now made it very easy for you to take on your landlord for harassment. Rafael and BItter are widely known for their pseudo strong arm harassment tactics. TAKE THEM TO COURT AS I AM DOING more

Sassouni Management is far and away the WORST company, in any capacity, I have ever had to deal with. Their buildings are in disrepair and you have to literally SCREAM at them multiple times to have anything fixed. Oh, and by ""fixed,"" I mean they come in THEMSELVES, do a half-assed job, and give you a lot of attitude as they do it. Please, please, PLEASE take my advice DO NOT RENT FROM THEM! I am looking forward to my lease ending so I can get as far away from Sassouni as possible. Examples of the stuff they pull: 1) They changed our move-in date and gave us the WRONG KEYS so we were there with all of our stuff and no way in. 2) They guaranteed that the apartment would be cleaned before move in and when we arrived there were dead creatures (this site won't let me say what they are... but I bet you can guess), leaking faucets, scratches on and holes in the wall, and dust everywhere. 3) There was a leak in our roof that they had assured us would be fixed before move in--- it took a MONTH after we moved in to have it ""fixed,"" and less than 2 months later it's already leaking again. 4) The heating pipes sound like someone is breaking into the apartment. We have called multiple times about having this fixed- and after being told multiple times that there was ""absolutely nothing they could do,"" someone actually said ""They were installed incorrectly."" WHAT?!?!?! THEN YOU SHOULD HAVE FIXED IT THEN!!!!!!!!! I could go on and on.... Cons: Rude, Liars, Lazy more

These dirtbag morons don't know when to quit. Do not rent from these fools or you may have to hire big guns to take on their small fry shoe shine boy lawyer. Milbank Tweed Hadley McCloy on deck. Get ready to be disbarred. more

I had a problem with my toilet a few nights ago at 4:00 AM! The Super was there in a flash! more

In case any of you honest hard working folks would like to send Ralph and BItter some flowers here's the address. 41 Flower Lane, Great Neck, New York more

These guys are complete a$$holes. Pros: the roof over your head Cons: Ambi. The company. Rent CONSTANTLY goes up more

They are dangerous -- they knew about an electrical problem in a building I lived in, and they told a tenant that they would have to raise her rent to fix the problem. So, they didn't fix it, and then I got to have the pleasure of a huge electrical fire that destroyed my apartment and most of my belongings. Then they tried to extort several months' rent from me after the fact, and they complained that I came into their office, the day after the fire, with soot on my face. They told me that they would fix the apartment by installing new light fixtures -- I highly doubt that they made any repairs to the electrical system. Truly scary. They are liars and cheats, just really, really evil. more

I will echo some of the other people who have had bad experience with Sassouni. All of the adjectives and nouns used by the previous poster are completely true. These people are lazy, unethical scumlords. You will have issues with them. Maintenance will not be performed. They will lie to your face. They will not return phone calls. They will go out of their way to be as least helpful as possible. This is a certainty. Do not let your broker show you a property managed by Sassouni. It's worth seeing the extra 5-10 apartments. As if it's not readily obvious by this and the other postings on this page, DO NOT RENT FROM SASSOUNI MANAGEMENT! more

Sassouni Management is the biggest slumlord in NYC. They overcharge for their units, take kick backs from their internal brokers and they never maintain their buildings. Their buildings are filthy, disgusting dumps. The building I am in has major rodent problems, amongst other issues including the pipes banging all winter long. No problems ever get resolved - unless you do it yourself. The managment is impossible, non-responsive and will de anything they can to ignore their tenents. Any sign of a super is non-existent. Ambi is a nightmare and Rafel Sassouni is a lazy, lying, hiding scumbag. This organization rips off their tenents and makes living in their buildings a miserable experience. Never rent from this company, in fact join in and call 311 to continue to report the substandard conditions that they keep their buildings in and how they treat their tenents. Cons: Terrible tenent service, miserable maintenance, filhty living conditions more

These folks are pure sleeze. This is not an exaggeration. This outfit will over bill you lie to you threaten you and NEVER discuss anything. They sit behind bullet proof glass in their office and it is no mystery why. The people who work at this scrap shop are snake oil salesmen. DO NOT RENT FROM THIS MANAGEMENT BUCKETSHOP!!!!!!!! You are looking for a temporary home they are looking for a chump they can rob. They want you to rent then they will over bill you threaten you and not renew your lease so they can flip it to some other unsuspecting retard. RENT DUPE FLIP RENT DUPE FLIP RENT DUPE FLIP. You will lose you security and deposit guaranteed. Unless you have a lawyer do not even consider renting from this place. TRUST ME!!! Pros: Nothing not one thing Cons: Crooks. Total crooks more

THOSE girls are good and nice and fair! certain ""other"" people will rudely hangup on you but there iss still good quality service at that management! Pros: the girls! Cons: bambi more

I have never every written a review before, but then again I normally don't get hung up on. Sassoni is the WORST people to work with, how they are still in buinsess I am not sure. I signed a lease in July for a August move-in and after they raised the rent $2,000 they pushed back the move-in date from August 1st to the 15th then to Septemeber 1st saying that the constrcution was not done. Now, a day before 9/1 they say that it won't be ready until the 15th. The worst part about it is they are NOT helpful and NOT nice. DO NOT WORK WITH THEM!!!!! more

The girl who answers the phones can never answer your questions, so she always transfers the call to Ambi, who is rarely there. I was told to call between 9 and 9:10 to reach her! When she is there, she's rude and has no ability to deal with people. She has hung up on me more times than I can count, simply because she has no solutions for a problem she was hired to fix. She loves the phrase 'they're out of the country right now' and seems to think it is an excuse for her incompetence. Cons: Ignorance, Poor Service more

Sassouni Management is possibly the worst in the city. Their main person ""Ambi"" will lie to your face and change rental terms at her discretion. She is also extremely rude, will ignore tenant calls and will not for the life of her return a phone call. Do not rent from this company! There isn't a single good thing I can say about this company - if you MUST deal with them insist that you will not deal with Ambi. Cons: dishonest, poor customer service, Ambi Kallu more

The person who picks up the phone is just terrible when it comes to customer service. She treats you like you are not worth her time and gives so much attitude. I have not received my security deposit and moved out 2 months ago. They are very unorganized. Don't use them if you can avoid it. Pros: Nothing. Just a terrible experience. Cons: Terrible Customer Service more

Called 60 days before rent was due and never ever get called back. Continued to call for days in a row. Get a lot of push-back. They love the phrase 'it's in the mail'. They had guaranteed on Monday that I would receive a letter that very Monday or Tuesday. I called Wed after checking mail for three days and still had no letter. She then said I'd have to wait two weeks for the letter. This renewal lease would be for the first week of the last month of my previous lease AND then she said I had to give 60 days notice before leaving. How can I give 60 days notice if I only receive THEIR paperwork 21 days before the end of my lease? Stay away from this management. Cons: extremely rude, liars, dishonest more
