Cheapskate Management Company
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location & neighbors
Cons:
Management does not respond to tenants maintenance requests, sends threatening emails & doesn’t respond to voicemails. Front door is often broken, either locking tenants in the building, or allowing strangers in to steal packages.
Advice to owner:
Pay a bit more for repair work, & have it done once, instead of finding the cheapest option & needing to repair the same thing again in a month.
