MULTIPLE unresolved FLOODS landlord GHOSTS you on move out and KEEPS DEPOSIT
Former Tenant
Pros:
Modern building
High Ceilings
Good Location between M and L
Cons:
Basement bottom floor of duplex has FLOODED multiple times +3 time within a year
Black mold that is unaddressed in basement hallway where the laundry is

Drugged out homeless man that likes to hang out in front of the building during the day and lives down in the outside basement door using it as a toilet filled with human excrement
Has been known for breaking into both the basement and building based stories from previous tenants

Water damaged basement floors from recent floods
The shower doors were broken upon move in and was never fixed or replaced
Huge crack in the toilet that the landlord said was not an issue
Leaks into the ceiling fixtures and water bubbles in the ceiling paint

Landlord pretended it's never happened before even though previous tenant broke lease because of it
Never resolves the issue and builds a small cement wall in front of the basement door to dam the water that does not help
It's been months since move out and landlord ghosted me does not respond to text messages or calls.
Never gave any itemized deductions or anything after move out.

Cheaply cared for but fine
Former Tenant
Pros:
the landlord is generally responsive and cordial. We don't interact much. The apartment has central AC and a dishwasher which is a big plus.
Cons:
Though the apartment building was fully renovated just a few years ago its pretty run down already. They didn't do a lot of the mandate clean up between tenants such as painting the unit. When we asked several times they did eventually get it painted but didn't paint the top portion of the wall?? The kitchen sink only works when the stray nozzle is pulled about 6 inches out of the faucet. Just a bunch of weird sloppy things, especially for how insanely expensive the unit is. We pay 4K for a three bedroom that is definitely not more than 900 sq ft.
Advice to owner:
stop being so greedy.
