Nice location, poor property management

Cons

Landlord has raised rent every year, by more than 5% the last two years Management is consistently unresponsive and heat came on weeks late both of the last two years Ceiling fell apart for last two tenants on the first floor due to a leak from the above apartment, both times it seems like it was patched rather than really fixed
