Avoid this landlord at all costs
Pros
Building was fine. Some units are renovated but the ones that are not have a lot of issues (no heat, ongoing water leaks, rodents, etc). The landlord intentionally does not fix them with the hopes of kicking out rent stabilized tenants. Trash was taken out regularly. Good location. Under 5 min walking distance to the Myrtle-Wyckoff L/M and a big grocery store.
Cons
Landlord and his business are operating a scam. They will attempt to steal your security deposit (this happened to at least 3 tenants who lived in the building within a 2 year time period). Superintendent was a drunk and threw parties in the backyard. He also had friends sleep in the basement. Laundry machine was inconsistent and managed by a different company so the building wouldn’t take any responsibility for its malfunctions. It would often fill with water but not run so you’d have to fish your wet clothes out of the machine and take it to the laundromat. AC units were improperly installed and leaked. Roof was not properly built and leaked. Bathroom was not insulated so we had to get a heater for it. Common areas were not well maintained. Roach sightings, dirt, and dog hair were not uncommon.
