Continuous rent increases
Former Tenant
Pros:
The apartments that share a floor are separated by a hall. Only noise would be from another floor or the hall. Modern building, has high ceilings though some shoddy areas.
Cons:
They raise the rent several hundred dollars each year. They could care less about their tenants.
Hot water is paid for by tenants, electric bill can be over $300 depending on use and time of year. There was an issue with bugs. Rats outside. Washer and dryer are not effective, shared by the whole building as well.
