Slumlords flipping building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Looks nice, great neighborhood
Cons:
New owners are unscrupulous developers. We consistently don't have heat or hot water. They fired our long-time super and are incompetent to the point of negligence
Advice to owner:
Try making money in an ethical way đź’ž

Looks nice, but really isn't
Former Tenant
Pros:
Very good location
Cons:
Landlord is AWFUL, super invasive, and rude. Is in the building constantly. Will let herself into your apartment without adequate notice (eg. will just knock on your door expecting to come in). Landlord constantly breaks the law as a landlord, and doesn't care. Heat didn't work for almost 2 months in January and December - coldest months of the year. Apartments have rising damp and the brick walls shed white stuff everywhere. The Side entry door has a "Not in Use" sign on it, and has been that way for months. Finishes in the building and apartments look nice, but are cheap and often break. The front church door is extremely loud when it bangs shut, which everyone does when closing it Have had multiple issues with AC and heat not working.
Advice to owner:
Be a nicer human being
