Ok Building (5D)
Pros
My unit was recently updated before I moved in. Lots of closet space, little to no vermin, save the occasional roach, low rent, responsive management. Never raised our rent too much year over year and got a rent deduction during Covid
Cons
So ridiculously hot in the winter, walls in the building are paper thin so you could hear every conversation, neighbors tend to be younger, terrible water pressure, and Super when I was there was super defensive and didn’t want to do anything,
Garbage Always welcoming you as you enter the building
Pros
Great Super and responsive. He does what he can to manage the garbage situation. Building manage does not want to hire a private garbage removal company.
Cons
Garbage management is poor. There is insufficient storage for day to day waste. The street is always dirty.
Advice to the owners
Deal with the overwhelming garbage. It will help the turnover problem with supers and tenants and will make a much better work environment for the super. The super will have more time to deal with tenants—after all they are your life blood.
