The best super!
Pros
We moved into a newly renovated unit in 2019 and stayed for 5 years so that says something about the state of the building! The super is phenomenal, and the apartment had W/D in unit.
Cons
The heat was often inconsistently turned on in the fall and spring so we used space heaters consistently. The property manager wasn’t very responsive to a broken dishwasher in the first month and we had to threaten to withhold rent after he didn’t fix it for six months.
Advice to the owners
Let the super make decisions on what needs to happen in the building
Poor works planning
Pros
The super and his team, the neighbors.
Cons
Without warning started major works over 6 months ago. Lobby has been gutted in that time, there was a dirt pile that attracted rats and flies sitting there for months. Now turning off elevator from 1st to 2nd floor for a week with zero days warning. No consideration and in fact outright ignoring specific and genuine need in this case.
Advice to the owners
There are real people who live here and are affected in a material day-to-day way by choices you make. Who is in charge of these building works and how has it been so poorly managed and communicated?
