You get what you pay for
Pros
Dirt cheap, plenty of living space for a railroad style unit. Exactly what a roomate and I needed at the time. Also room in the kitchen for barstools and a butcher block to eat at (not everywhere has kitchens like that in Manhattan).
Cons
There really wasn't any investment in maintaining or modernizing the units. No modern fixtures, old cabinets, etc. The tiles in the tiny shower fell out right before I moved out. Maintenance requests were sometimes responded to quickly, but often waited a week or more.
Advice to the owners
Invest in the property.
Worst Management EVER
Pros
No bugs, new super is nice and responsive
Cons
Management is trying to buy out the people who are in rent stabilized unit, they left us without a kitchen sink for a month, we got the wrong keys on the first day and couldn’t get into the apartment, rent went up $1000. Monarch realty is truly E V I L.
Advice to the owners
Remember to treat people like people.
