It's an okay building.
Pros
Good location. Neighbors (in the building) are very nice.
Cons
next door to a halfway house, so there are frequently police & ambulances out front. The entryway usually smells of dog pee. People smoke in the entryway causing everyone who walks through the front door to smell like smoke. The owners of the building had a faulty rent collection online payment system & then blamed the renters for not paying rent even though we had payment history of payment receipts.
Crazy Neighbors!
Pros
The building is great for fresh out of college students, or low budget housing as you're kicking off your career, and has great water pressure!
Cons
Our downstairs Neighbors threatened us, calling us devils, swinging golf clubs at us and our front door, threatening to send their nephews on us who also lived in the building and constantly bad mouthed my two roommates and I. All of this because we "stomped and threw furniture around all day and night" When in reality we are having to tip-toe around and pick up chairs when we go to sit down. A senile old man who is angry at 2 very small females and a regular sized male who walks like a fairy now, making accusations like we did it on purpose, we're banging on the floor, moving furniture at 4 in the morning, and running around the hallways constantly. We had to leave the building breaking our lease 6 months in due to being threatened by this neighbor, and having video proof it all happening.
Advice to the owners
Carpet isn't going to fix the crazy downstairs neighbor, or the creaky old floors, replace the floors or kick the crazy out. Thank you!
