Classic rent stabilized pre-war apartment
Pros
Classic rent stabilized building Huge rooms, original moldings live-in super great sunlight Elevator Reliable heat Good for families, quiet
Cons
Bureaucratic management company, hard to get a response if it’s not something the súper can do. They have an exterminator but the exterminator is useless, comes in sprays for one second in the closest room and leaves. Not pet friendly, though there are definitely pets in the building. The súper is not a handyman, you have to contact a separate handyman that they contract, but that person is less motivated to respond quickly
Advice to the owners
Have a super that is also a handyman, prioritize requests faster, switch exterminator companies
