Management at 42 Pine Street in Yonkers is very POOR. Tashia Champagne does not respond to phone calls or emails. Had to call the inspector and he stated the same. These owned co-ops are falling apart and it's apalling how nothing is done about it. Mice, roaches, flooding. No pool for years YET it's included in the maintenance fee. They DEFINITELY need new management because the quality of living here has downgraded drastically.

Over the past 3 years, I have had the pleasure of working with Avery Feldman of AMS, a Division of Argo Management. In his management of our building's 37 units, Avery has always demonstrated professionalism, reliability, competency, and a sheer depth of knowledge regarding property management. In addition, Avery' s communication skills are superb. He listens to the needs of the board and has been extremely responsive to our needs.
I am grateful for his ready communication and his innate ability to build relationships with contractors and various vendors that the building has utilized. This allows for speedy addressing of issues and an ability to negotiate to keep our costs at a minimum. I, also, appreciate his honesty, straight forward manner and ability to engage in difficult conversations when necessary. Avery is truly an asset to AMS and to our building! Maxine P.

I lived in queens 10 years ago. Yet I still remember how horrible this company was. I moved from out of state, and even though I had arrived just a few hours before I could get the key to my apartment, I still was not given it. We had to wait, sitting there with all my items in the car before it was finally handed to us. Even then, all the people we spoke to were extremely rude and treated us sub-human.
During my rental period, the nastiness from staff continued. They were not helpful with any questions I had. The building itself that they managed was disgusting, which you don't notice till you're there a while. Appliances falling apart, cockroaches. By the way, nothing was done about these things. Needless to say, I was happy to be out of there and never looked back. Don't rent from this company if you can help it, they're loathsome people.

Neil Gevirtz has done a spectacular job of managing our building, not only in terms of maintenance and physical plant issues, but in his responsiveness. He is able to navigate the diverging personalities of the board and shareholders, which is not a easy task in NYC.
