Pray paint over mold
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location. Close to train. Roof top view.
Cons:
Landlord is unhelpful with any requests. Took him our entire first/ half of second month to clean and repaint the apartment when he said it would be move in ready and didn’t even let us prorate the rent. Mold in our apartment that was just spray painted over.
Advice to owner:
Do better
