Thurcon Properties

The Landlord from hell. NEVER RENT WITH THEM. They won’t repair anything. They won’t respond to typical service calls. But they’ll be sure to steal your security deposit and hang up on you when you call asking for it back after the lease term ends. They literally hung up on me when I asked for the proper documentation regarding the taking of my security deposit. No explanation provided whatsoever.
You can tell they are used to being sued frequently (by the way they dance around legal issues on the phone) and they have developed a system for stealing security deposits versus actually providing quality customer service. Save your time trying to ask nicely for cooperation and just file a small claim and a BBB report. These people are scum.
This is a website for another renter’s suit against them (
)… need I say more?

If you need have a question, you will have to write two emails, and once they respond, the answer won’t make sense, and then you get charged a fee. That’s been my experience for the past two years. Leaving this apartment and never renting with this company again.
The people that work IN the building (33 Gold), however, are very nice and helpful.
In the future, I will read reviews for every management company that I consider so that I can vote with my wallet.

These people are complete crooks. They lie, they make up reasons why you cannot get your deposit back, they spring fees on you.
And if that wasn’t bad enough, they are rude and yell and hang up the phone on you. I have never ever ever experienced such horrible service. I plan to report them to the BBB.
STAY AWAY!

This place is a slum. Infested with everything you can imagine: cockroaches, water bugs, mice. There is mold in the hallways and throughout the building. I’ve lived here for six months and will be moving out ASAP. Management is abrasive and rude with each contact. Avoid at all costs.

I’ve never rented from this company, but I know that I’m the kind of person that, when I see one bad review, I will shrug it off and give people a chance. But a website like this?
and my friend Emalee dealing with the exact same stuff? There are so many of these kinds of companies in Brooklyn. Sad, really. Stay away!

These people are total crooks and horrible building managers. I lived at 33 Gold for one year, and while the rent was cheap for the amount of space you got, the upkeep of the building was abysmal and the building managers are impossible to contact. We lived on the top floor and suffered roof damage from Hurricane Irene in September and when we moved out in May, the roof still had not been repaired. We also were forced to pay two months of rent for the security deposit, none of which we have ever gotten back. (As of this writing, it’s four months after we moved.) The building also smells like weed and is a raucous party most nights of the week. If you don’t mind that and want to tempt fate with repairs, go for it. Just don’t expect to see that security deposit or the itemized list they promise to send you of repairs after you move out. I’d suggest saving yourself the trouble and living somewhere else, though. It’s not worth the headache.

Awful company — been waiting 3 months for my security depsot and keep getting the same response…“I will have your check this week or next.” That would be fine if living in their building at 33 Gold was a good experience, but it was AWFUL. There are roaches and mice in the building and it was extremely overpriced for what it was. Never rent from them, it is a nightmare!

Thurcon’s building at 33 Gold is BEDBUG and COCKROACH infested, overheated to 90F+ in the winter, and nestled on the corner of two streets that have undergone incessant construction for a year and a half and counting. The construction is noisy and disruptive, and has rendered Gold Street between Fulton & John a trash-​filled, unlit, creepy, unsafe, dank alley. The super Santiago is AMAZING, as are the regular doormen (Pepe, Enrique & Richard), and Thurcon certainly isn’t the worst management company I’ve ever dealt with, but they don’t seem to understand that their apartments are priced grossly above market given all the construction and the current state of the finance industry. Not wise for its buildings in the financial district! They refuse to lower the rent, even for units that have windows covered with scaffolding.
