Landlord is Chaos
Pros
Location location location
Cons
Landlord doesn't care about the building falling into disrepair. While we were there we heard about mold, mice, and general lack of maintenance issues being followed up on. The supers are more focused on renovating the owner's apartment than taking care of the day to day requirements of the building.
Advice to the owners
Sell it to someone who will take care of it
Owner is impossible but decent building
Pros
Nice finishes on the appliances, updated and high functioning appliances Good amount of space
Cons
Owner was entirely non-responsive for days or weeks about critical issues (e.g. broken A/C). Broken appliances were a neverending process of incompetent contractors and ineffective repairs. And requests for repairs were met with rude, angry, and defensive responses. Kept security deposit for no reason until we threatened to sue. Walls are thin (and brick is not original) so noise is easily heard from neighboring building.
