It has growing negatives
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location was the major pro here.
Cons:
- Loud building, big portion of residents are young adults who are very loud on weekends and often leave garbage in common areas.
- Have had both cockroaches and mice in our apt. There are exterminator services available, but the exterminator they use does not do much.
- The owner company is very inflexible, and will make you travel to west chester to sign the lease and not allow a realtor to be present with you. You must mail checks that they take an extra week to cash.
-There is a current pending eviction due to the moratorium.
- there is a homeless person asleep in the vestibule of the main entrance that you have to step over to leave for work at least twice per month.
- rent was significantly decreased due to covid, which made these sacrifices in the apartment more understandable, but with rent back to a premium now, the large rooms and location are no longer worth the cost.

Advice to owner:
- Be more accessible. Take an active role in the management of your building because the super cannot do it all by himself.
- Stop requiring everyone to travel to west Chester and consider taking online rent payments like many other properties.
