Management is unkind
Pros
Location is great, if you have no issues and don’t have to deal with management it’s a great place to livr
Cons
The management is full of con artists who will steal your brokers fee and have their lawyers contact you if you have any issues
Beautiful, super small, super expensive
Pros
Amazing neighborhood, clean apartment on move-in, lots of natural light on the upper floors
Cons
William Gottlieb is a massive management company that doesn’t care at all about individual tenants. They’re incentivized to do the bare minimum, and in a neighborhood like the WV there are tenants willing to pay astronomical rates so they don’t care if you’re disappointed. Our rent went up by over 50% after the first year—we knew it was a COVID deal that wouldn’t last but didn’t expect to pay over $1,500 more per month for the second year. Enjoy it while you have it!
Advice to the owners
Be more humane with rent raises
