210 Sullivan Street,

Manhattan, NY 10012

Location. Price (excluding broker fee).

Homeless always on the stoop.
Drivers like to lean on the horn on Bleecker Street at 2AM.
Landlord does not give out his phone number or email address; all communication must go through his broker or the super. Neither wish to be contacted on the weekend.
The broker is especially unpleasant - he demands a fee more than double the monthly rent.

What can I say, I’ve been living at this building for a few years. While at first sight, I saw the apartment and definitely thought I was getting a bargain of a rent. The landlords were great at the first meeting and ONLY the first meeting. Oh and when they need to follow up on rent payment... very on top of that.

The space is large, the bathroom works, the heat works on most days. The neighborhood is the only selling point here.

That’s about the only good things I have to say.

The landlords (especially eve) are terrible. When you CAN get a hold of her (which is rare) she’s so rude and talks forever. If you reach out first, you’re met with a voicemail that’s always full. The longer I lived at the building the more problems I came across. Mold in the bathrooms, cockroaches coming through the radiator ... AND THE RATS. I can’t begin to explain how many times I had been woken up to rats, how many times I found dead rats laying in the living room, or in the pantry. The super doesn’t seem like he cares and is only available M-F by appointment. The building is not maintained and extremely dingy. The walls are thin (as that’s to be expected in NYC). The neighbors are relatively young, so expect noise until late.

After a while I finally had to leave. I couldn’t take the rats everywhere, I couldn’t take the bugs, and the unresponsive landlord.

Get a new phone. Clean your building. Treat your tenants with respect.
