Nightmare at 326
Former Tenant
Pros:
1. Neighbors are very friendly and helpful.
2. Good shops nearby for food.
3. Close to the train station.
Cons:
Too many to make a complete list, but the most notable are the following:
1. The Landlord and the management company take turns on avoiding your requests, but make it a priority to harass you for any overdue rent. By harass, I literally mean banging on the door / sending people to intimidate you.
2. While I was there, there were approximately three superintendents, each of diminishing quality. The first super was actually quite helpful; the last could benefit from a different line of work.
3. Repairs? You have to withhold rent for a few months until they finally cave in and repair your unit. Make sure to set up escrow accounts to put your withheld rent in for when they try to threaten you with legal action.
4. Heat and hot water? They're luxuries. The boiler had always been hit or miss for a few years, but it really start crapping out in September 2023. Buy a space heater or expect to wear layers on layers to go to bed. Important in-person meeting in the morning? Shower the night before (if there's any hot water then).
5. Rats. Everywhere. Careful moving the lid of a container in the garbage area because those rats are social. You can also hear rats crawling in between the walls as well.
6. SEVERELY OVERPRICED. You will pay premium rents to be denied the most basic of needs such as heat, hot water and peace.
7. Lack of safety. Packages stolen so frequently that neighbors had to start looking out for each other's packages. There was also an incident where an unhoused individual with mental problems proceeded to break into the same vacant apartment for the span of a month or two. Police would show up and escort him off the premises just for him to return; management was alerted of this, but proceeded to do nothing. The vacant unit was left unlocked for viewings despite this safety issue.
Advice to owner:
Nothing. I don't think any advice would get through to him.

DO NOT RENT HERE!
Former Tenant
Pros:
The neighbors are friendly and willing to help always... only pro
Cons:
Roaches, rats, management is a complete and total disaster. See a list of cons below:

- Finance office will pull rent $ from account without permission.

- Additionally, management won't answer phone calls, texts, or emails for days to weeks, and when they do, they don't provide answers or clarification on issues you are bringing up.

- Throughout this winter, we have interrupted HEAT and HOT WATER at least 1x a week, with no help from management.

- Building is infested with roaches and first floor deals with rats and mice because the building workers refuse to follow the garbage schedule.
Advice to owner:
No advice to them, SLUM LORD.
