Great From The Outside
Pros
Good location for public transit right next to Myrtle Broadway JMZ, updated appliances, huge windows
Cons
Terrible management, partying, lots of pests (rats, roaches), etc. Fourth bedroom has no windows. No windows in living spaces (living room, kitchen).
Advice to the owners
Stop ghosting your tenants.
Do not sign this lease
Pros
The rear (“R”) apartments are quiet, the aesthetic is good.
Cons
They list the apartment as 3.5 beds 1.5 baths, but the half bedroom is unofficially rented as a fourth bedroom. They get around this by having all four tenants sign one lease- there’s no window in the fourth bedroom or in the main room. Roaches in the apartment for over a month with insufficient response. Maintenance is very slow and condescending, does not answer phone most times. Laundry does not work in basement and has many pest issues (gnats, flies, rats). Neighbors leave trash and spills all over stairs regularly with irregular/lack of cleaning. The rooftop is littered with clothes and furniture. Upstairs neighbors are heard incredibly loud just through daily tasks, and ground floor neighbors throw loud parties until 5am sometimes, making it difficult to sleep with inappropriate conversations to listen to for children.
