BULDING OWNED BY SLUMLORDS
Former Tenant
Pros:
Rent is somewhat cheap for the neighborhood, that is literally it.
Cons:
Building is owned by complete slumlords. Many of the floors have an on-going Bed Bug infestation that has been occurring since 2009, yes, 2009. As well, as mice, and cockroaches.
Not only that, but many of the apartments have a severe shortage of Heat in the winter, while the other half are baked like an oven.
Stay away if you can. No one should have to live here.
Advice to owner:
This building should be sold to an owner who can properly take care of it.
