Infestation after infestation. Unhelpful management, they lost my rent money ??

Pros

Stabilization keeps it cheap.

Cons

Management unhelpful. Mice and German roaches run rampant in this building. Unhelpful super.

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Landlord scams tenants!!!! Lost thousands of dollars and belongings.

Pros

Large pretty apartments BUT they’re too good to be true. Don’t move in here.

Cons

Landlord hid knowledge of a MAJOR leak that existed prior to lease signing. Lost thousands of dollars worth of belongings. Had nowhere to live for a month. Took her to court and WON, but she scammed her way out of payment through very sketchy potentially illegal methods.

Advice to the owners

PAY ME. I never even got my security deposit back let alone the damage money.
