Crappy Landlord, Great Staff
Pros
Tree-lined streets Great staff (the super + office assistant was really nice and was very helpful!) Nice generous living room layout Building neighbors were really nice! Sunny living room Exposed brick + fireplace
Cons
LANDLORD, he is a piece of work. Extremely rude to tenants and would yell at us occassionally over minor inconveniences Small kitchen layout Next to a building that is constantly under construction Pest issue, we had mice at on the top floor Shared laundry room had issues with water draining onto the floor and it pooled. Bugs would drown in the water If all the laundry machines were running, the power would cut out and the washers wouldn't drain correctly
Advice to the owners
Get your act together and take care of this building. Your tenants are nice people and love being there. Take care of the common areas and treat them with respect.
Decidedly average to below average
Pros
Good location, landlord's office is on same street.
Cons
Pretty shoddy work - repairs are visibly cheap and the building is old. The landlord's nephew lives in the building and is technically the super, but he's very incompetent and not very responsive. Can't emphasize enough - the management of the building is just very cheap.
Advice to the owners
Spend more time inspecting work of the contractors you hire, and hire a professional super who is diligent about the job. Take more pride in the building.
