A Nice Building with Poor Management.
Pros
A historic building with excellent floorplans and an unmatched location on a corner lot.
Cons
-Poor responsiveness and worse behavior by the property manager and landlord. -Without air conditioning, the apartments are nearly uninhabitable during the summer as indoor temps regularly climb into the 90s. -Property Management took over 5 months to address a crumbling facade that led to leaks in all 6 apartments, and retaliated when 311 was called to address declining living conditions.
Advice to the owners
Listen when your tenants, your contractors, the City, and regulatory agencies tell you your building is in need of extensive repairs. Your brash tactics of insolence and rudeness are neither necessary nor EVER appropriate. If you can't handle the rigors of being a property owner, exit the industry. You're a poor manager and a worse person.
Illegal occupancy
Pros
I guess they respond quick
Cons
Landlord has illegal occupancy in the basement. I live in the upper levels of the building but I’ve noticed 2 apartments down in the basement. I noticed because I just started washing my clothes down there.
Advice to the owners
Don’t be money hungry. This can get you in trouble.
