Yikes! Caveat Emptor!
Former Tenant
Pros:
I like that there is a Slack forum to communicate with your neighbors. There is a lot of storage in the kitchen. My apartment gets a fair amount of sunlight. The location is pretty close to the train which is nice.
Cons:
The management is truly crummy. The garage is a disgusting joke. I live above it, and the door is so loud when it opens and closes that it literally shakes and rumbles my apartment. That’s countless times a day, very fun! Packages are often stolen from the lobby. The fixtures in the apartment are cheap and break constantly. Broken door handles, broken faucets, balcony doors that won’t properly close or lock. Heating and air units that are so old and broken you can’t adjust the settings. The building is rated a D and insulated horribly, so energy bill is seldom less than $200 a month - upwards of $400 in cold months. Maintenance requests often go ignored. Hallways are filthy and reek. Overflow of recycling bins weekly. Your basic nightmare.
Advice to owner:
Listen to your tenants. Manage requests. Fix the garage door. Maintain the building better. Insulate apartments better. Care about tenant retention.
