    Can’t tell which was worse, property or the building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Proximity to trains
    Cons:
    -Cockroach problem and rat problem in the backyard that made it unusable (which was definitely part of why they thought they could charge so much)
    -So many things broken from the shelves on the fridge to the floorboards
    -Would come over unannounced
    -we got locked out once and instead of using the master key the super used a crowbar to get us into the apt, breaking the lock. Took weeks to fix it and the landlord even tried to say we were being dramatic and the door lock was fine
    -threatened to sue us for libel when we stated the objective truth that there was a pest problem to people touring the apt
    -raised the rent from the advertized price of $3500 to $3800 last minute
    -any time they sent over a repair person they would track mud in the house and be overall disrespectful (and we had reason to believe they weren’t actual plumbers just random people
    Advice to owner:
    Stop being stingy, lower the rent and get a real job
