Good to Better

Pros

Entire building was gut renovated during so all the apartments were updated. Landlord was always quick to respond and take care of repairs. Smaller quiet building and I always felt safe inside.

Cons

Previous owner skimped on updating the building so there were issues with AC leaking through the ceiling and walls not being insulated well making it hard to keep apartment warm or cold in extreme temps. However, new owner is aware of these things and works diligently to right any wrongs.

Advice to the owners

More of the same for the most part. The building/apartment wasn’t perfect but I don’t think any in the city are.
