I recently purchased a coop, which is managed by Synoptic. Purchasing a coop in NYC is not an easy undertaking. Thankfully, Synoptic Management was extremely helpful and supportive in making the process as easy as it could be. Special thanks to Andrea, who was instrumental in helping me through the process. I'm sure Andrea had a great team supporting the effort.

We rented an apartment with Synoptic for a year and they were pretty great, especially when it comes to nyc management companies. If something broke, they fixed it very quickly. They have an easy way to pay rent and set up automatic payments. Most of all, they were super flexible with our lease (we had to move and they let us extend our lease to the same day our new lease started so we didn't have to pay double rent for even one day!). This sounds silly but is really unheard of in Manhattan. Just taking one star off because they are slow to answer emails and it is difficult to get in touch

For 15yrs Synoptic has been the managing agent of our UWS co-op. They consult frequently w- the Board (I'm a member) on ever-changing NYC building code requirements & respond quickly during emergencies.
David Steinberg & his staff know how to upgrade buildings in ways that are fiscally responsible. In recent yrs we've installed a new water tank, boiler, parapet wall, and re-surfaced our roof. Synoptic secured multiple bids for each project, making sure to stay well within our co-op's budget. While other managing agents think nothing of leaving up costly, ugly sidewalk bridges for 5-10yrs, Synoptic

If i can give a zero star I will. This management company is extremely difficult. Not helpful, not responsive when you need it, and def. not easy to work with when you want to renovate the unit as an owner. They will try their best to delay you and their best to find ways to charge you extra money. Why in the hell are we paying for a management company that's supposed help us out but instead bringing us pain and stress everyday?
Can't wait to join the board and switch the management company. If you're thinking of renting/purchasing, run away if you see the building is being managed

I recently came across the Synoptic reviews by chance as I googled to find their phone number since I could not access it on my cell. Very surprised to find a negative review, I now feel compelled to share my experience about Synoptic. I am not a board member, nor is there any private interest that ties me to Synoptic. Synoptic has managed since a very long time (at least 20 years) a building where I have a loft. Their staff has always been competent, professional, courteous, prompt in responding and friendly, so I was very pleased they were managing our building. But that is only half the story

Our building has been with Synoptic for several years and has had a very poor experience. They are NEGLIGENT, UNRESPONSIVE, LACK TRANSPARENCY AND HAVE NO ATTENTION TO DETAIL. Further, they treat their employees (e.g., doormen) very poorly to the point that they want to go to the Labor Department for unfair pay and lack of sufficient sick time and holiday allowance. But their workers are afraid to do so due to the fear of being fired. Yet SYNOPTIC HAS BOARD MEMBERS OF THE BUILDINGS THEY MANAGE IN THEIR PAYROLL: TALK ABOUT MURKY BUSINESS PRACTICES!

Property management is a low margin business and unrealistic expectations abound in their clients, (and, yes, to me at times) who are typically charged modestly in comparison to other services. Several of the most negative comments here are submitted by entitled, sloppy-thinking and irresponsible players--who are fortunate they are not sued for libel. Stating that a firm is involved in kick-backs and corruption, without (obviously) a shred of substantive evidence, and on nothing but semi-hysterical petulance, is a serious charge.

Been in a Synoptic managed building for a little more than a year now and it's easily been my best experience since moving to NYC (about 6 years ago). We've had one or two maintenance requests that couldn't have been handled quicker or with more care. It's clear they pride themselves on knowing tenants and taking that extra step to make sure we feel heard and looked after. With all of the nonsense you get with shady landlords and sterile management companies in NYC, Synoptic is a welcomed change of pace.

My wife and I lived through several years of the absolute, unmitigated Synoptic nightmare.
Surprised to see a recent positive review about Synoptic, I have no doubt that free apartment maintenance/handyman work is being provided by Synoptic in exchange of the reviewer's goodwill (a classic trick that this management agent uses with 1-2 Board members to pull wool over their eyes). Synoptic is clearly trying to burry the reviews pointing to their long track record of corruption and negligence.
Real estate professionals anywhere are a mixed bag but Synoptic ranks among the all-time worst

Synoptic was an absolute unmitigated nightmare. Real estate professionals anywhere are a mixed bag but Synoptic ranks among the all-time worst of my life experiences. I've lived in Germany, Japan, China, Chicago, New Jersey and I've lived in New York City for over fifteen years. I've moved many times, bought and sold a house, and bought and sold a luxury condo. Working with Synoptic was worse than going to the DMV because when the DMV makes you wait in line for a long time your car doesn't necessarily lose value and they don't try to scam you out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, it's really
