Actually six units in bldg
Former Tenant
Pros:
Close to subway, I’ve seen very few bugs, good size bedrooms and closets, high ceilings, decent amount of natural light
Cons:
Brokers mentioned backyard and show off roof with the bldg but after signing the lease clearly says no one is allowed up there and only one unit has backyard access. Wasn’t cleaned or painted prior to move-in day. Floors slant, front doors aren’t secured to any structural part of the bldg just walls, old pipes leak and cause mildew. The coin dryer can’t dry a full load, basement is sometimes left unlocked which is how we think a stray cat was entering the bldg. The windows and walls aren’t well insulated so $300+ electric bills and little privacy from neighbor’s conversations and outside weather & noise. Musicians and students live in building and are loud frequently and sometimes continue late in the night on weekdays. Also have spotted a mouse on two occasions.
Advice to owner:
Fix issues permanently, fresh dry wall and paint doesn’t solve reoccurring problems. Step up communication with maintenance, don’t just show up randomly. We had work orders cancelled with no explanation and had problems getting in touch with someone by phone. In an emergency I don’t know who I would be able to contact.
