    JT Franco cares about his buildings
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The landlord can seem a bit scary but the guy actually cares about his property and it reflects how each unit is maintain. The renovated apartment are put together nicely. Friendly neighbors. Management team were friendly.
    Cons:
    Sometimes there were a few german roach problem (exterminator showed up every month) which can be control by buying roach poison from amazon. No live-in super which means most maintenance issues will be resolve when the office is open (M-F).
    Advice to owner:
    Install cameras in the lobby
