Decent Bulding with Small Renovated Apartments
Pros
Elevator, renovations, location, neighbors, inexpensive rent.
Cons
Noise outside from construction across the street in two directions. Courtyard near garbage is a disaster and heaping piles everywhere. Basement is dirty and not well-maintained. Laundry facility in basement is not great to use with machines sometimes not working and no clean space. Heat is on too high and not controllable. Repairs are hard to come by and there’s no live in super.
Advice to the owners
Courtyard and basement should be renovated for better communal use. Response should be quicker and more thorough for repairs.
1.5 years since I moved out - still fighting for my security deposit back
Pros
Close proximity to restaurants
Cons
Everything else - landlord does not care about his tenants. I have been trying to get in touch with management for over a year to receive my security deposit. They have not returned my emails and have been dodging my calls. I finally got the personal cell number of the landlord and he picked up and said “leave me alone” and hung up. What he fails to understand is that he has $2,300 of my money. I am not the only previous tenant having issues with “friendly associates”, and I know his previous brokerage stopped working with him due to his work ethic. I very highly discourage moving here unless you want to give away your hard earned money for no apparent reason.
Advice to the owners
Learn to treat your tenants with respect instead of your own personal bank
