Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Never live in any of Bill/Will Lika buildings!

Pros

Location is the only good thing

Cons

He owns over 20 buildings. Hides them under different names. Look him up on whoownswhat.justfix.org by address or name Bill Lika or Will Lika. Major heat outages during cold months, unregistered boiler, unsafe boiler room, no cleaning or maintenance for the building. If you need something fixed, it either doesn't get done or gets done half way. Doesn't make any expensive repairs. Abusive to women. If you insist on repairs, he will threaten to evict (illegal btw). His rental broker does not disclose any issues before renting you a lemon. Stay away at all costs!

Advice to the owners

Grow a conscience.

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Avoid if possible

Pros

The location. That’s it.

Cons

I had a huge problem with mice. Bill was unresponsive, and only did something after I threatened to file an official complaint. Water pressure and overall plumbing is really, really bad (low water pressure, temperature in the shower oscillates a lot, and leaks in the ceiling.)

Advice to the owners

Don’t be dismissive of your tenants and listen to your contractors too. Also, if you actually fix the problems the first time you come, we won’t bug you anymore... On top of that, we didn’t have a lock in the front door for a week.
