Fix the roach problem

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Location good, building meh

Pros

Classic Manhattan walk-up, renovated only when necessary but with the old charm of living between SoHo and Greenwich Village. Functional, clean-ish and well situated.

Cons

Old kitchen appliances and bathroom, lack of light in living room and one of the bedrooms. Not all appartements are renovated the same so make sure you don’t overpay for an old one! Plumbing noises when heating is on can be loud, but that’s inevitable in old NY buildings.

Advice to the owners

Renovate the bathrooms in priority and kitchens too.
