214 Varet St,

Brooklyn, NY 11206

Lot's of square footage in the units
Well located for transit, bars, restaurants, etc
Decently quiet, normal neighbors compared to other rowdier Bushwick party lofts

The heaters in the units hardly every work properly and the landlords are extremely slow to respond. I have spent several winters without properly functioning heat and received little to no discount on rent for those months. Many tenants are in legal litigations with the landlords and you can tell there's something fishy going on. Basically nothing is up to any kind of residential code but it's nearly impossible to report anything because the building is controlled by the loft board and you can't make reports through 311.

Provide your tenants with living conditions that you yourself would accept

The units are huge, ceilings are super tall. These spaces are blank canvases.

Old counters and sinks. Windows also look somewhat old and intercom doesn’t work.

Fixing the intercom and have better trash management

Great location and rooftop view, pretty large spaces, monthly extermination service

No recycling, more than the occasional roach, useless super, unreliable heating, outdated crumbling, poorly maintained bathrooms, buzzers do not work, crazy leaks from the ceiling during bad rainstorms. issue NEVER addressed

Fix the door buzzers, get recycling, and update the bathrooms and leak issue!!!

if you know what to google you can find everything you need to know in the news. google every name they give you bc they use multiple names.

this includes civil lawsuits as well as criminal cases.

They also have a creepy super and realtor who both trespass without notice. They spy on all their tenants. All that CCTV and the packages still get stolen, because theyre only using it to surveil the tenants who are suing them

dirty. busted. they never fix the front doors to stay shut so packages have been getting stolen all year. landlord is useless and his business partner is infamous. find him in the nypost. slumlords deserve what they get.

read the lease.

heater and oven are death traps

other tenants were young and reckless. tons of parties during covid till all hours. movies filming in the building. packages stolen constantly. broken intercom wiring. water damage. bugs. oh my god the bugs. probably from trash in the halls.

fix things. yesterday.

Its alot of space for a loft, and actually well built rooms.

Shitty management doesnt do anything, the live in super sucks (pancho)
Was lied about being able tio use the rooftop

Please hire an assistant for the poor super, and treat him with dignity.

Large units lots of light

No amenities in building

I found the landlords to be responsive

Just wish there had been a super

Maybe add a super to be on site

close to the L

it is hard to put into words how noisy this building is. there is a neighboring factory raising hell 6 days out of the week. tenants are loud too. trash/garbage/food is always left in the halls. film crews are constantly working in the building. dumpster is constantly overflowing. appliances are ancient. you have to get commercial gas hooked up. bathroom tiles falling apart. stairs in lofts are completely dangerous. tons of building code violations. and never miss raising the rent even in a pandemic.

if you google the landlords you see stories about one of them getting murdered for being a slumlord who didn’t pay his workers

1/10 of my emails get any responses.

fix things. clean things. soundproof windows and floors. storm proof windows.

Tall ceilings, big windows

Not super clean

cool area near art galleries

I don’t think they’ve mopped once all year. the halls are disgusting. Everytime there’s a storm you hear wind whistling in the halls. Building is not secure or insulated well.

Fix entrances to properly open and lock

Location and large rooms.

Terrible water pressure in the showers, the odd cockroach running around, loud Wonton factory across the street getting multiple truck deliveries every day, occasional flooding from apartment above.

Fully clean and repaint a room after someone moves out. Was scrubbing grease off every kitchen surface for a week after I moved in. Walls are punctured with holes from old hanging and wall mount anchors.
