I’ve never hated a landlord so much
Pros
- big windows - nice location - amenities, in concept, are nice - the super is nice (and picks up a lot of slack from the landlord)
Cons
Where to even begin? All of it stems from shitty management and cheap, fast construction - landlord talks back to tenants for very reasonable complaints (like heat, electrical issues, pests). I’ve never seen anything like it. - many units in the building have problems with leaks every time it rains heavily - even the electricians commented on how cheaply built this place was bc there’s constant short circuiting - pests in apartments and common spaces (including mice in the rooftop grill) - walls are paper thin. I could hear my neighbor sneeze - landlord is constantly out. Basically unreachable thurs-Sunday every week. Emergency line just disconnects if you call it. Constant holidays with no back up - plumbing issues!! tenants using the amenity space toilets in the morning - common spaces were never finished, including the roof, lounge, gym and even parts of the hallways or stairwells - clear bigotry, specifically towards women
Advice to the owners
You need back ups. It’s not reasonable to not be reachable or available for very standard habitability issues (electrical, heat, leaks, plumbing)
