Large space is only Pro
Pros
Apartment is large by New York City standards… WD Combo would be nice if it worked.
Cons
Building is 120 years old. Very outdated. Old lobby not painted in years. Apartments are old, kitchen is tiny - no dishwasher. Bathroom is small, has not been updated in years. Bathroom floor needs to be re-grouted, tiles are completely lose. There is no ventilation in the bathroom other than the window; mildew and mold on ceiling because of it.
Advice to the owners
Answer your tenants needs or you will lose all your tenants.
Central Harlem Charm
Pros
Centrally located in Harlem. Easy walk to A/C/B/D subway lines at 145th and 2/3 train at 135th. Grocery story less than a block away. Washer/Dryer in unit. Spacious bathroom.
Cons
Infested with mice. After a month of being there and killing about 25, we were able to find that the hole in the wall under the bathroom sink for the plumbing was where they were entering. We filled it with steel wire and blocked any future entries. Views from bedrooms are of the garbage area outside. Very noisy whenever anyone walks by outside. Lots of fights outside on the street AND in the alley way behind. Neighbors steal packages.
