At your own risk
Former Tenant
Pros:
I love my little apartment. It’s adorable and has everything I need albeit small.
Cons:
The management company is made up of the most incompetent people I’ve ever encountered. They will make you do all the work to get even the simplest things in the building done (like pest control.. cough cough mice. I had to hire my own exterminator to get rid of the mice because the building left so many holes.) the super is very nice but he doesn’t live there and needs access to the building. I worry about the security too as we’re right outside a bus stop and for a long time the lock wasn’t working well. It’s better now but I still question how secure it is.
Advice to owner:
Please listen to your tenants and take better care of the building.
