Stay away, terrible management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Quiet, because hardly any tenants are left.
Good super, but he’s only one man and can’t do everything. Rent stabilized. No elevator issues.
Good super, but he’s only one man and can’t do everything. Rent stabilized. No elevator issues.
Cons:
Dirty halls, German roach infestation, fire alarms do NOT work(building had a major fire months ago and none of the alarms rang, even told landlord and they’ve yet to be fixed.) Heat/hot water can be pretty unreliable. Building hallways aren’t up to code. Also, directly across from a brothel where there are corner watchmen 24/7.
Management is not helpful. They did absolutely nothing until I contacted the New Rochelle office.

Advice to owner:
When your tenant finds the source of an infestation, it is then your job to fix it. You don’t cork up a wall if it’s unfinished, you fix the dry wall!
Do something the first time a tenant complains
