    Scammy Landlord Uses Alias
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It has nice light.

    Good water pressure.

    Liked the hardwood floors.
    Cons:
    Landlord charged me extra on my first month (he prorated from date of signing, not when I received my keys). He’s using an alias to rent because he was previously convicted for harassing tenants and trying to illegally evict them. Harassed me, even though I paid my rent on time every month.

    Building has a roach problem that the landlord won’t do anything about. Packages are consistently stolen and there was no doorbell/buzzer to know when deliveries were downstairs. Nightmare of a building that was extremely overpriced.
    Advice to owner:
    Stop renting
