Bed Bugs and Old appliances

Pros

Great neighborhood, charming old apartment

Cons

Outdated appliances, on-going bed bug issue. Land lords cheap out with the exterminator. He just sprays blindly and does not even search for them. I have requested heat treatment /or a k9 to come in and sniff them out, and have been ignored. Rent is getting raised for no reason too so I'm moving anyway.

Advice to the owners

You should spend more money on exterminators and update appliances.

Terrible Management, beautiful building

Pros

- location is great - apartments are beautiful

Cons

- super is a jerk and doesn't do anything - many amenities were taken away during my first 6 months (like bike storage) - the management company (EM Holding) is toxic and gaslights their tenants

Advice to the owners

Get a new management company they will drive your building into the ground. EM Holding will increase your exposure to litigation and cheap everything out until you need to do massive renovations. Do everything in your power to start your own management company for your beautiful buildings.
