The Board Cares

Pros

The board is proactive in remedying the problems in the building. The heat and water is excellent, monthly extermination, and maintaining a clean building inside and out.

Cons

The board is too lenient with tenants when they do not allow the exterminator in their apartment.

Advice to the owners

The board should fine tenants who do not allow the exterminator in the apt

Terrible bed bug problem

Pros

Amazing location. Great space and size for the price. Lovely landlord who is trying his best to deal with a complex building situation.

Cons

This building has a terrible bed bug problem which I don't think can be remedied because some neighbors are unwilling to take care of the infestation properly.
