Falling apart
Pros
Affordable, good area, great access to stuff
Cons
The building is falling apart and the owners dont repair it properly
Advice to the owners
Please be on too of the building maintenance. Get a better superintendent
Decent building but not worth the stress
Pros
Heat and hot water included, quiet and respectful neighbors, and building very close to the A & 1 trains
Cons
Rude and unhelpful live-in super, roaches and mice with terrible pest control options, little to no ventilation within the apartment, and extremely disruptive construction in the building with no warning (ie loud banging/drilling or turning off the building’s water for hours out of nowhere). Also, the landlords could not care less about what struggles their tenants are facing, which became very apparent during the pandemic.
Advice to the owners
If you want your tenants to believe you actually care, stop ignoring calls and emails whenever you feel like it. Your covid response was also a huge slap in the face. Offering a monthly money raffle to those who have already paid that month’s rent is not helpful. Why not extend that sort of aid to tenants who have been negatively affected by covid and are actually struggling to pay rent? It makes absolutely no sense to give money to people who already have the means to pay.
