    Management’s Lack of Care
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The heat & water are usually not an issue.
    Cons:
    The pest control needs work, no matter how much I personally clean, I still see atleast 3 roaches in my apt a day. The garbage area in the back is awful, rat infested. And management doesn’t address concerns in a timely manner. Management doesn’t seem to care about tenants. Lots of disruptive music playing, even with the elderly and sick living there.
    Advice to owner:
    Why bother?
