Building is nice and management is too until you leave
Pros
Apartments are nicely decorated with all new appliances and fixtures. Location is great, neighbors are nice, monthly pest contol
Cons
They nickel and dime you out of your security deposit when you leave. We were charged for things neither of us have been charged for when leaving an apartment in NYC and we have been in the city for 6 years. Repainting? Every landlord does this after a tenant and we have never been charged. Chair removal for a chair that was there when we moved in and cleaning the fridge, which we did before we left and it was nearly spotless. Seems like they use the security deposit to finance routine maintenance after a tenant leaves vs for actual damages.
Advice to the owners
Don’t charge tenants for things you should be doing after they leave anyway.
Subpar leasing company
Pros
Terrible building with decent amenities and decent location.
Cons
The building has a few structural issues and the leasing company is not great with handling issues. Chooses to not believe the tenants complaints and would prefer to wait until issues grow before they take care of them then blame the tenant for the issue in the first place. Landlord is terrible and lies. Nobody should lease from them and they should be put out of business.
Advice to the owners
Listen to tenants better and stay on top of repairs and stop being so cheap.
