Owners very unhelpful
Pros
Unit was decently priced, had some newer appliances
Cons
Bed bug problem immediately upon moving in that was a direct result of slum lord behavior of the landlord. There was a lower income family living in a rent stabilized unit one floor below me who told me that the landlord had been doing work in their apartment, but had left a big hole in their floor and never covered it up. As a result the family was dealing with horrible infestations of bed bugs, roaches, and mice, which spread to other parts of the building including my apartment. I assume this was to force the family out in order to renovate their unit and rent out at a higher price.
