403 East 77 Street,

Manhattan, NY 10075

I thought the neighbors were very nice and I had plenty of space in my apartment. Move in and out was pretty easy.

The biggest con is the landlord. He will do anything he can to save a buck & is very aggressive with tenants. He harassed two elderly women who had rent stabilized units, even taking one to court to get her out. When I left, he made me pay him 200 dollars to get a professional cleaner even though the place was in much better condition than when I moved in. He even harassed me to pay for light bulbs that I had “taken out” of the ceiling (they were never there in the first place). There were safety hazards (water coming through the lights during storms, electrical sockets that smelled like they were burning, etc). I got a deal on rent due to the pandemic & he gave me a $900 increase upon renewal despite that being higher than anything he’d previously rented it out for & it being super outdated & would call me and my neighbor often to complain to us about how we weren’t paying him enough and it wasn’t fair. The only time he was pleasant was when he realized he could have been in trouble for getting me my deposit back months later than it was due to me.

Location and street

Owner is crazy, he will scream and curse at you. I’m scared of him. I saw him screaming at people on the street. And the super is not helpful at all. Rodent problem, you see a ton of rats especially around the garbage outside. Don’t do a good job taking care of it. Not surprised based on the owner.
Apartment not painted great.
Glad I moved out
