    Horrible Management, bed bugs and illegal practices
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    super on sight for repairs and maintenance
    Cons:
    Uncontrolled pest problem, gone into foreclosure, leaks, roof needs repair, unreported ongoing bed bug infestation across multiple apartments, breaks rent stabilization laws, lying to new tenants about rent stabilized status. incomplete renovations, exposed wires, un-caulked bathroom, cheap fixtures. Don’t respond to complaints, repair requests, thefts. Multiple break ins gone unreported to police.
    Advice to owner:
    Respond and manage your building, too much indifference and no integrity
