Electric problems, lights turn off -dangerous. Huge roach problem. Mold too. Super is a psycho-walks into apartments w/o knocking -changes door code and won’t tell you code. Landlord is a literal criminal
Advice to owner:
Run for your life. Mitch the landlord is a criminal. Will do anything against the law to steal from you. This is a cabal of criminals and bottom feeders.
