Landlord tried to steal my deposit
Former Tenant
Pros:
building was decent but needed updates and improvements, better pest control, etc.
Cons:
The landlord Simcha is difficult and unreasonable. He's bad at communicating and will pester tenants at odd hours, will choose to only communicate with certain tenants on a lease and ignore others, bad at issuing leases/paperwork in a timely manner, and tried to cheat me out of my security deposit. After my lease expired and I moved out he tried to claim we still had an active lease and that I owed him money for that month so he was going to keep the deposit. Insanity. I did everything by the book and had moved out weeks before. He was impossible to reason with and his excuses kept changing. A month later I filed a suit in small claims court and he eventually sent me the money shortly before the trial date. A year later my former roommate moved out and had the same issues getting her deposit back. Avoid this landlord and his mediocre apartments at all costs.
Advice to owner:
Follow the law, stop stealing people's deposits, take better care of your buildings
