Great quiet building
Pros
The super Chris is great, very nice and attentive. Laundry in the basement is affordable. Quiet neighbors
Cons
Rent is not stabilized so rents can jump year to year. Requests from management can sometimes take a while.
These guys are slumlords
Pros
Location is the only pro
Cons
I have lived in a Midas managed property for almost 2 years at 455 West 56th st and have been dealing with the facade of the building leaking for over a year. There is mold growing from the wall, an unsafe window, the heat has been turned off 100+ days been the 2 heating seasons, and my power had been disconnected 4 times. The heat and power have been getting illegally turned off by the owner and Midas has not only allowed but enabled the illegal harassment. They have made no attempt to resolve the 20+ HPD violations issued and made to attempt to correct any of the harassment issues. They are your standard NYC slumlord. Even Michael Padernacht the managing president has been involved in all conversations and is the worst of them all!
Advice to the owners
Stop depriving people of their basic human rights and fix your maintenance issues.
