BEWARE OF LANDLORD & LANDLORD POLICIES & SUPER WHOS ALWAYS ON VACATION
Former Tenant
Pros:
Very large Space, a lot of light, used to be a good bang for your buck before the near 30% rent hike
Cons:
- Landlord #I way to resolve each tenants problems is “TERMINATE THE LEASE” and at your own expense that is… and as early as before you move in (has said this to every tenant in the building with any issues brought to her attention. -Unit “AS IS” means just that. The time you saw it is exactly what you get. No clean up after showing, no fixes to those items promised to be fixed. She’ll give you supers number so you can hand any fix necessary - Building is NOT WELL MAINTAINED and neither are the units. Super seems to always have another job somewhere, on vacation, or quarantining due to recent travel. Left without heat for 2 days bc super was a really far drive away - UNRESPONSIVE SUPER; maybe you’ll get a hold after the third call and text - Spiders & bugs you’ll see a lot of them here when you look for them. If you look really closely some really small termites too -ELECTRICITY - through the roof - MAJOR SAFETY & SECURITY ISSUES. Someone breaks in consistently because door lock to the lobby is broken, and to fix the problem, they just break the lock some more. Don’t expect to receive all your packages and keep your doors locked! Pretty sure #4’s unit has been cleared out by the same burglary that we notified super about at least 5-10x has cleared out the poor lady’s apartment. Only person who can file the claim is tenant (who doesn’t live there) and landlord (who seems she could care less). Apt #5 came home from thanksgiving break with an uninvited guest in home broke in and apt upside down -PLUMBING - it’s always an issue. BE CAREFUL - TRASH CHUTE. Don’t use it! Cover it up. It gets backed up she’ll blame you even it it wasn’t. - Indoor air quality and hazards do exists here -Place is really falling apart but you have to live there to really see it. And landlord is just mean when you approach her with any problem you may have. Small or large even when you are not at fault. Don’t be fooled by the kindness during the showing! -This list can go onnnn and onnnn
Advice to owner:
PLEASE SHOW SOME RESPECT TO TENANTS, BE REASONABLE, AND PROVIDE A SAFE & HABITABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR THEM TO LIVE IN. Just as you would like to have for yourself or your close ones. Be fair and your problems will not be solved by terminating leases l. Next tenant will also be your next problem
