Old, no fuss building
Pros
Large apartments, quiet neighbors, relatively inexpensive rents
Cons
Non-responsive landlord, poorly managed garbage which is always overflowing, and bad heating (way too hot, heat stays on until June!), things take a long time to fix (like broken front door)
Advice to the owners
Be more responsive to the needs of your tenants and hire a building manager who actually takes pride in the cleanliness of the building
Misleadingly Good Units
Pros
Good location, quiet neighborhood, near subway
Cons
Building management takes a while to fix things, no area to store trash so you have to hold it in your unit, things break weekly, poorly maintained building, no on site super, radiators are really old so they hiss loudly
Advice to the owners
Get a trash collection space
