    Building Is Great BUT Property Owner is Not Good and Superintendent is Lazy
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building all in all is pretty nice. Elevator doesn't go out too often and everything pretty swift like almost any other building BUT the cons outweigh the pro's for anyone looking to move here. Just Don't, after a month or two they will treat you like everyone else.
    Cons:
    There is NO WAY to get in contact with the property manager or anyone to report the property manager to.
    The Phone number provided is NEVER answered and IF SO ON A RARE OCCURANCE you will be routed to a Voice mail. Then they will stop answering your calls once they know your number. EMAIL is also a game of chess as they answer on their time with annoyance.
    If Langsam Property doesn't have the ability to maintain tenants needs they they need to be replaced by a better company.
    Alex Salamea is not capable of handling this building at the sakes of tenants health and issues.
    Wilson the superintendent has an English language barrier that is nearly impossible to deal with and constantly finds excuses to not make repairs.
    Advice to owner:
    Find a better company and superintendent
