Great landlord but unresponsive property management company
Pros
Love the individual unit 4A-- lofted ceilings and landlord is very helpful and responsive
Cons
Neighbors can be very loud, street is also very loud with ambulances as the building is in between Interfaith and Kings County. A lot of issues with property management company's lack of responsiveness to building issues
Looks Can Be Deceiving
Pros
On the surface everything looks nice and renovated.
Cons
The owners methodically and deliberately turn the heat and hot water off in a deplorable attempt to save money. This was confirmed to me by city investigators who found the boiler and plumbing to be in perfect working order and after multiple complaints informed me that everything was being manually shut off. However they need to "catch them in the act" in order to file formal charges, and the owners keep the boiler room locked in order to avoid that. I guess multiple fines is cheaper. Don't be fooled by a fresh coat of paint, this place is a slum.
Advice to the owners
What you are doing is immoral. People's lives, especially tenants who are paying you for a place to live, are more important than saving a few dollars. You should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves.
