terrible landlord DO NOT RENT FROM DEODAT LOWTAN (RUPERT)
Former Tenant
Pros:
building was spacious I guess
Cons:
landlord also manages all 50 of his properties himself and does so horribly
he lies just about everything
he's a modern slumlord
the building is horribly kept and will have rat and cockroach infestations and the landlord will do nothing about it
he may send his "friend" to "spray" for pests but he is not a real exterminator and doesnt actually do anything
Advice to owner:
do literally anything to take care of your property and be a kind person. you are in a position of power and you wield that to take advantage of people and it's sickening

Decent sized bedrooms, hip location

Roaches and roaches and roaches. Not to mention, weird smell. Sewer-y. But constant unending roaches that are unresponsive to any and all forms of extermination. No one did anything to help.
Advice to owner:
Gut and clean the walls
