Usual Manhattan scumlord
Pros
The super was usually very kind and helpful. He was very clean with the maintenance of trash and the hallway was always clean and swept and smelled good and so it is maintained regularly. During my first holiday there was holiday decor before the switch over to new management. Another major pro living here was the proximity to everything but A lot of things are expensive I remember I was charged four dollars to add oat milk into my coffee.
Cons
The buzzer did not work and I couldn’t set up my phone for the buzzer to work because it only needed a New York number which I found to be ridiculous because most people who live in New York are transplants and don’t have a New York number. IT took FOREVER to get in contact with Rialto management which I found to be ridiculous! There is a considerable amount of back-and-forth to get anywhere to get anything done over email you would have to contact them through the phone call sometimes they wouldn’t even return to you through email or phone. The heating was not properly distributed in this apartment.
Advice to the owners
make sure you’re getting email notifications on your vacation yacht so you respond to people within an adequate sensible timeframe. Before you implement a online service to pay rent make sure it actually works, make sure your website is user-friendly, and make sure your property managers are actually managing the properly efficiently through responding in an adequate amount of time.
Slumlord in the ‘upper east side’
Pros
Next to subway station - thats all
Cons
- no maintenance at all - do not answer emails or phone calls and when they do they don’t actually get anything done - no door buzzer for past year + - HUGE mice INFESTATION throughout the entire building they refuse to address. Us residents had to buy our own traps and try to fix it but never could. - roaches in hall coming in to apt - way too small for price - border of east harlem - raises rent to unreal levels despite never actually meeting anyone from the office or even know the landlord’s name, you are a statistic and a paycheck to them
Advice to the owners
Needs an entire new management company and staff that can actually do their job
