Great Location Iffy Management
Pros
I really liked the access to the park and the convenience of being between two separate train lines. I didn’t have many issues with pests.
Cons
The units got very dusty quickly. The windows were not double-pane, so the apartment got very cold easily in winter. There was a stench throughout the hallway. The hallway has caked-on grime, which is not regularly cleaned. The building management will send someone to clean, but they do not do a sufficient job. The number of dogs that go through the building due to someone running a dog-walking and boarding business that does not clean up after itself compounds the hallway's dirtiness. The building management often lets trash pile up, resulting in tickets appearing at the front door.
Advice to the owners
Consider deep cleaning the hallway to lessen the stench and also make the regular cleans more effective. Also consider getting into contact with the tentant who runs the dog business
Good Location, Incompetent Landlords
Pros
amazing being across from the park
Cons
management stiffed us on the security deposit, ceased all comms with us, I had to take them to small claims court.
Advice to the owners
Quit. Sell your property to someone who's invested in being a good landlord.
