DO NOT MOVE HERE
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nothing zilch nada
Cons:
Dirty stairwells and entryway, to get that out of the way but the management here is so god awful it borders on slumlord territory. We spent every last cent in savings we had to move after only living here a year. We spent almost all of last winter without heat or hot water, they almost never answer your maintenance requests even when you say it looks like your bathroom ceiling is going to fall in due to water damage, almost every appliance was broken when we moved in or broke eventually. We had roaches and mice and no one would take care of them. Save yourself the headache do not live here
Advice to owner:
Try giving a sh*T about actual human people who rely on you AND PAY YOU for basic human necessities

Greedy Landlord, Little Care for Tenants
Former Tenant
Pros:
Most of the tenants are kind, pleasant and quiet.
The building location is nicely situated.
Cons:
Upstairs neighbors that shout, drop things, have running children, fight, cause leaks.
Bug infestations (roaches, waterbugs, plaster beetles) and no care to solving the issues.
Leaks are responded to by painting over the damage.
The front door was left broken and unlocked for months.
Garbage in the back is left improperly handed, rats getting at it daily.
Hallways unmaintained, dirty and trashed.

Issues to management take weeks, if not months for any kind of response and handling -- usually at the barest level of resolution.
Advice to owner:
Be an active, positive force for your building. Maintain it, repair damage proactively and in a timely manner. Handle bad tenants.
