Building has a roach issue, and paper thin walls
Former Tenant
Pros:
Elevator building, decently updated appliances
Cons:
Thin walls, loud booming from next door units are a problem. You feel like you have roommates, even when you live in your own unit. Roach/pest problems
Advice to owner:
Do better to fix these issues, otherwise don’t raise rents so unreasonably, especially when tenants have lived there for longer time.
