    Transient, Critter Plagued, Prime Location.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location. A few kind long-term neighbors with rent control.
    Cons:
    Mice and Roaches. A lot. Issues with gas, hot water, and heat. Noisy. Transient residents. Always changing.
    Advice to owner:
    Respond to tenant issues. Review heat and hot water complaints. Value tenants to encourage longer term stays rather than flipping for rent increases constantly.
