Nice neighborhood. Watch out for landlord
Pros
Neighborhood was very nice.
Cons
Owner was very rude when building was flooding. Told us to just deal with it and wait till next day. Owner tried to raise the rent half-way through the lease. We threatened to take legal action. Refused to give us our deposit back despite that all rend had been paid in full. Said rent was not paid. When asked to provide paperwork supporting this, landlord kept ignoring calls and said he can’t find it once we finally arrived in person.
Advice to the owners
Follow laws and guidelines.
Pest issues (rats, mice, mold)
Pros
Owner is responsive and can be pretty nice at time. There was visible efforts to improve the pest situation. Spacious apartment with good retail nearby.
Cons
We had a major pest control issues that lasted throughout the 9 months I staid there. Owner was inexperienced with handling the pests, and was slow to hiring professionals to fix the infestation. Mold in bathrooms, bathroom vent needs maintanence
Advice to the owners
Take care of the building
