Only Interested in Rent: Not help for tenants
Former Tenant
Pros:
The superintendent and cleaning staff are awesome. Aside of ghe tenants being pigs, they keep the place clean and presentable and garbage goes on freqently
Cons:
Neighbors are loud, dirty, disrespectful and inconsiderate. You do not get peace and quiet, you barely get any sleep. There is no hot water; pipes either run dry or have a small cold trickle. He is merely interested in the rent. Either non responsive or dismissive, he lies and gives you the run around. HPD has issued violations and summonses which have gone ignored and his only resolution is that I find another apartment and move out because I am costing too much money each time I call 311 for help.

Advice to owner:
You want good tenants, who pay the rent and have respect? You need to provide the quality of life services detailed in YOUR lease. When someone lives in your property, you are responsible for the repairs and making sure everything works...particularly when you have a responsible, respectful and respectable tenant who always pays rent in full and on time, It is unprofessional to not respond; People gain respect by being responsible, responsive and respectful. Perhaps this is why so many tenants are not paying their rent? No one wants to pay rent to be inconvenienced nor to be ignored by the person who receives more money out of our salaries than we do. People basically pay 2/3 of their salaries in rent. In addition, if you want good rent paying tenants you have to treat them well and be responsible and responsive. It is not a difficult task to be a decent human being
