It Was Good While the COVID Deal Lasted
Former Tenant
Pros:
Charming Block
Proximity to Transit
Proximity to Bars & Restaurants
Fire Escape/Roof Access
Good Storage Space
Kitchen is functional, dishwasher included
Unit itself is in gerally good repair
Cons:
Located next to noisy Nostrand Ave - homeless will bother you if you're coming home late at night
Building Managers sometimes don't reply to you unless you bug them multiple times
Hallways in the building outdated and in poor repair - needs a paint job
Advice to owner:
-Update the hallways
-Overcharging for what you're getting - ultimately not that many sq ft for $3000+? nice digs but overpriced
-if you need more staff to deal with building issues, then hire more staff; response times not great
