Care about your tenants and listen to them
Negligent Building Management
Pros
Historic Building, high ceilings, spacious, great location, haunted.
Cons
Unresponsive management company. Problems are patched but never fixed; very short term thinking in not maintaining the building properly. The roof is deteriorating and will leak with heavy rain. Basement floods, gas leak, blocked sewerage. Deck leaks into 2nd floor bedroom. Entryway and stairwell never cleaned. No snow removal. Old windows are single paned and not sealed so winter and summer energy efficiency is really poor.
Advice to the owners
Spend the money to fix the building properly and maybe your tenants would stay longer than a year.
