Former Tenant
Pros:
the other tenants are amazing, its a great community with some people having lived in the building for decades. everyone helps each other and takes care of each other. the rent is cheap, a lot of these apartments are rent stabilized. there is an elevator.
Cons:
roaches and rats. so many other tenants have told me about their terrible roach and rat issues and we had them as well. tenants even had to take management to court over it. the water in the shower can never stay on one temperature it oscillates between freezing cold and burning hot. water damage on the ceilings. they are so terrible about turning the heat on in the winter. its near impossible to reach anyone to come fix anything.
Advice to owner:
BE RESPONSIVE. LISTEN TO THE NEEDS OF YOUR TENANTS.
