Overall Good, somewhat frustrating
Pros
Beautiful Space in a gorgeous neighborhood and it WAS accessible for folks who came from a multitude of backgrounds
Cons
There have been ongoing concerns about some pests in the building, hoarding from other tenants, tenants smoking on the premises in the hallway, lack of consistent extermination (unless you work from home and can answer the door immediately), etc. Repairs have mostly been surface-level fixes and have happened repeatedly as opposed to making appropriate replacements (ie. fixing leaks with many layers of spackle and paint). Holes where pests have come in have been patched by tenants over the years, not management. Management has been pushing to de-stabilize building by clearing people out for small reasons as opposed to working with them and honoring their negotiations. Management typically hits a breaking point and then threatens eviction to push people out (I have seen it on multiple occasions).
Advice to the owners
Work with your tenants directly, be more patient and be more proactive about fixes; people will be much more receptive to prices that way.
nice place to live
Pros
owners responsive, great prices, amazing location.
Cons
building common spaces weren't always clean, but it is an older building.
Advice to the owners
None, they do a good job caring for tenants.
