Reviews

Former tenant·8 months ago

Rat hole right on the front stoop

Pros

Nothing at all

Cons

this building is disgusting, it has a rat burrow on the front stoop (sink hole in concrete) and they never take out the trash, instead opting to let pile 10 feet in the air and spill into the sidewalk. Literally the trash is taken out MAX once every 2 months! Rats outside and mice inside.

Advice to the owners

Do literally any maintenance

Former tenant·10 months ago

Disgusting unsanitary slumlord management

Pros

Close to mcgolrick park, washing machine (drier doesn’t work!) and dish washer

Cons

They never take out the trash ever. Rats scurry by entrance morning noon and night. Impossible to reach super or landlord. Leaks. Weird gunk spews from pipes. Lights fall from ceiling without repair. Holes in front of the door in sidewalk where rats scurry. Pollution. The building shakes from the BQE. Landlord is anonymous and impossible to reach. Raised the rent $1000. Never ever rent a home by choice property. You’ve been warned

Advice to the owners

Bulldoze the property or sell to someone who respects the tenants
