Nice building, poor management
Pros
I love the neighborhood and the updated finishes in the apartment.
Cons
Management is unresponsive. They turned off cooking gas for an “inspection” that was supposed to last 2 weeks that actually lasted about 4 months with no adjustments to the rent. In addition to this, whatever opening of walls they had to do to adjust the gas created a pest problem. They never communicated when people were coming by to drop off appliances or inspect the apartment which was disruptive. At one point a new oven was dropped off without the old one being discarded so I had two ovens taking up half of my very small apartment. We tried to negotiate lower rent because of all of this and I had to email 3 times before getting a singe lien response “we’re not interested in negotiating”. Upon moving out when it was time for the super to inspect the apartment and collect our keys they were 2 hours late.
Advice to the owners
Communicate more effectively and understand that your tenants are people and not just paychecks
