Landlord is awful
Pros
-Neighbors are nice -Building is in a nice neighborhood -Units have character
Cons
The landlord is truly disrespectful, unresponsiveness, and consistently goes against FHA, NY Housing Laws, and more. When we moved into our unit, it was an absolute mess and completely unready - when we escalated this, the landlord and ownership team didn't respond for days, and then proceeded to threaten to kick us out of the unit if we continued to cause problems.
Landlord is a NIGHTMARE
Pros
Love the neighbors, neighborhood, and very cozy units.
Cons
The landlord is impossible to work with; there is no super in or around the building, the emergency maintenance numbers do not work, and maintenance requests take micromanaging the landlord consistently to even get a response. When you can get ahold of the office or the landlord, they are extremely rude and disrespectful - act as though you are ruining their lives by having any issues pop up in the unit you pay rent for. If you rent here, be prepared to fight constantly for anything to be fixed or solved.
Advice to the owners
Be a good person.
