Low Price Good time
Pros
Beautiful pre war apartment for a very good price
Cons
Everything is very as-is. The public areas are gross, and repairs aren’t often made.
Advice to the owners
Nothing!
It's technically an apartment
Pros
Convenient location, good light, interior of apartment looks pretty modern, affordable rent (though landlord is raising rent for the coming year, so may not be relevant to new tenants?)
Cons
Common areas are extremely neglected and dirty. Major issues in the building have taken a long time to be fixed - hot water was out for a couple of weeks, and for at least a few weeks the front door was broken & unlocked. Stove in unit hasn't worked in about a month, so we haven't been able to cook. Also no dishwasher or laundry but that goes without saying
Advice to the owners
Make improvements to the building and common spaces and be responsive to tenants (or ... be honest with yourself/everyone about the state of the building and don't raise rent)
