Special building deserves better landlord
Pros
Large apartment, especially for the price. Surprisingly quiet for the location. Responsive and kind super. Lovely neighbors
Cons
Kitchens and bathrooms could use updating. Structural issues (e.g., broken doorknob on front of building) are lazily fixed. Apartment is full of “the landlord special.” Owner seems invested in de-stabilizing apartments and has been not renewing leases only to let apartments sit empty for months (??)
Advice to the owners
Take care of the building and your tenants. Building is wasted under lazy and shady ownership
Nice apt, fantastic location, but ROACHES
Pros
Responsive super, great location
Cons
Not the nicest cabinets, floors, etc. nor have they been installed perfectly. Floors are also quite uneven. My biggest issue has been trying to keep a bug infestation at bay. The super has been very responsive in helping combat but he is not a professional and does not follow professional exterminator protocols to the infestation is never fully resolved (now going on 2 years).
Advice to the owners
Deal with the building-wide roach infestation ASAP
