Landlord is a scam artist
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location close to the park and subway
Cons:
The landlord is actively trying to scam my roommate. I don't know how he was chosen from the three of us, but he has decided to fabricate a lie that my roommate hasn't paid rent for over six months and owes more than $13,000, even though my roommate has bank statements showing that he has paid every month. We've also had plenty of issues with the apartment itself, which go unresolved (e.g. doors that don't close properly, terrible heat in the bedrooms).
Advice to owner:
Don't try to scam your tenants!
