Slope Realty Co — Local services in New York

If Slope Realty/4G Realty is your landlord, be prepared to take a lot of time off from work. No repair made at our apartment has required less than two visits -- and 5-10 calls/emails to get those two visits made.

They flat out lie. They told us we were responsible for storing and curbing recycling even though NYC law says they have to provide it and do at other residences. They finally did provide bins a couple months after we had to provide them reference to the law.

We haven't had consistent hot water since we have lived here, contrary to the noises the landlord makes in notes to us. Heat also doesn't work on a regular basis, and slope doesn't respond in a timely fashion until complaints are filed with HPD/311.

When my girlfriend was locked out of the apartment because her key wouldn't work in the lock after business hours, she called their emergency number and no one responded. No one followed up to our complaints and I had to fix the lock (with graphite powder) myself.

It took months of repeated complaints about the front door not closing properly due to a faulty doorstop. This means that anyone could enter the building at anytime and that the door provided almost no security and the inner door can be pushed open with a single finger. The inner door still isn't fixed as of this writing.

They have been out 3-4 times to fix a leak that leaves the cabinet under the kitchen sink wet. It still isn't fixed.

Sadly, my gf lived in one of their buildings before and had a better experience. I am not sure how much better though as we might romanticize it due to the current horror show experience we have with Slope. One difference was that there was a super in her previous building so she contacted the super for issues and the super was fantastic. In the new place there is no super -- so we have to go through the least friendly office on the planet. These guys make the Van Brunt Post office workers on a bad day look downright joyous...

I was living in a building that was managed by a different company who shall remain nameless, and they were doing a terrible job. After a series of escalating issues, the building's owner fired the management company and replaced them with Slope. Slope immediately fixed several outstanding problems, updated our horribly unreliable intercom system, and proved to be responsible and fair in my dealings with them. I got answers quickly, and the issues I raised were generally resolved within a few days, when possible (whereas before it would take weeks, if not months). When I had to break my lease, they worked with me to get a new tenant in, and also did a fair amount of work to my apartment (painting, replaced/updated appliances and fixtures) to make the unit more marketable. Once a new tenant was installed, they quickly sent me my deposit. I was only their tenant for six months or so, but my experience was...

I lived in one of Slope's buildings in Prospect Heights from 2016-2019 and absolutely loved it — the very few times I needed assistance (a burst pipe, a dead fridge fan, sticky keys), the management office was super-helpful and resolved my needs immediately. Slope's representatives are extremely nice, and I happily referred friends of mine into the...
