If you can avoid it, don’t live here
Pros
Great location and proximity to bars/restaurants/subway.
Cons
Management is EXTREMELY slow to respond to repair requests. I’ve had to make numerous requests due to plumbing and kitchen appliance issues and it will take weeks if not months for the management to finally send a contractor. I have had a leak in my shower for at least two months now and I didn’t have a working microwave for over a month. They are essentially faceless - there is no one person to contact which makes it more difficult to know which person to email for what. The super is also difficult to get into contact with and usually just tells you to contact management for repairs anyway.
Advice to the owners
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but just do your job and make apartments livable for tenants.
Unresponsive, horrific landlord
Pros
We love this neighborhood - tenants in the building are delightful, you're right above smalls jazz club and St Jardim. The apt was relatively newly renovated.
Cons
The landlord was unresponsive and outright slum-lord like. We had issues with hot water, the washer dryer created foul odors, the front door didn't shut so homeless people lived in the lobby, there was leaks in the windows. Scaffolding went up unannounced and drilling made the apt unlivable, without any abatement from the landlord. The area is loud, but we didn't mind it!
Advice to the owners
Do better.
