Common concerns include outdated laundry facilities, high lockout fees, lack of online payment options, and rising rent without proportional improvements.

Not worth what they’re trying to charge
Former Tenant
Pros:
This is a well maintained building. Amenities are okay.
Cons:
The washing machines do not clean as well as front loading machines so the in building laundry will be useless if you have high cleanliness standards. This building has increased rent ridiculous amounts in the past year, pushing longterm residents out. But here’s the thing: usually the neighborhood where a building is located should affect the value of the rent. Here you will find syringes on your walks, and people using hard drugs at all times of the day. I have heard gunshots while walking nearby.
Advice to owner:
Lower your rent prices, and stop price gouging. Get better washing machines. Make the roof 24 hours so people can look at the night sky in relative safety.
