    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Lawyer did help communicate with them, but once the lawyer finished their communication, the building owners went back to Miss handling the lease
    Cons:
    SCRIE is designed helps eligible senior citizens and because they want market rate, for every apartment, they do everything in their power to not adhere to the rules
