Advice to owner:
You are a terrible business person. I can' wait for my lease to expire. There is no advice that will fix you.

The city sued our landlord
Former Tenant
Pros:
It is located in a nice area.
Cons:
If you ever think about moving into 3950 Blackstone Avenue or any building belonging to Weinreb, beware! Many things have happened, but the most recent case was this Friday. The super cut the water supply on the entire line B (Apt 1B, 2B, etc.) and didn’t notify. When we called, he said they would fix the issue on Monday. From Friday to Monday with no water at all. They opened a hole in my bathroom and will open another one in the kitchen to find out if a pipe is leaking down to the basement. If you go to the DOB, the property's number of violations is alarming. I’m waiting for my lease to expire next year. So if my apartment or any other is vacant, do not move because you will regret it. Maintenance is disgusting, and there’s mold, issues take weeks or months to get resolved, and the floors are not insulated. It is a mess! Weinreb management is being sued by the city too.
Advice to owner:
No one can have a thriving business by being greedy, rude, and irresponsible. There is a lack of understanding and education, and it shows.
