Great value for money and location
Pros
Great big spacious rooms, biggest bathroom I've had in NYC so far. Great location, close to the laundromat and grocery store and within walking distance of the subway and bus lines.
Cons
Can be hard to get in touch with the owners sometimes and there's no real active super.
Cheap apt with absentee landlord
Pros
Good neighborhood, close to the water, cheap
Cons
Absentee landlord, poorly maintained building
Advice to the owners
Take better care of your property and treat your tenants with basic decency and respect
