Location does not justify the rent.
Pros
Location and proximity to public transportation.
Cons
The building is poorly maintained; several units lack basic amenities, and the tenant turnover is high (for obvious reasons).
Terrible Living Experience
Pros
The location is great. I love the neighborhood and it’s an easy commute to Manhattan.
Cons
The building is filthy, no maintenance done. The super is pretty unresponsive and the real estate agent asked that we pay her an EXTRA $150 for “light property management” — I never saw her again. When I moved in, there was garbage piling in the hall because there is no realistic garbage system. Later on, it caught on fire right in front of my door. No effort to clean during the pandemic, the hallways are gross. Packages were stolen. Paid an outrageous price for what it was. Would not recommend.
Advice to the owners
Clean. Charge less.
