Terrible Management, Roaches, Bed Bugs

Pros

Good location because it's close to the park. Laundromat is close by.

Cons

Management was terrible and illegally raised rent above what is legal for rent-stabilized units. They then refused to reimburse us when we realized. They refused to pay for bed bug and roach extermination, even though the whole building was infested. They did not report on bed bug incidents. The ceiling would leak in the middle of the apartment when it rained - management refused to fix this, as well.

Advice to the owners

It's not worth it. Management are crooks and the place is full of roaches, bed bugs, and water damage. I would look elsewhere - there are plenty of apartments a block from the park in the area.

Beware of this building.

Pros

Close to the subway

Cons

Building is poorly maintained. There are bedbugs and roaches in all the units. Some have mice. The units are very shabby. Management is not responsive or efficient. During winter, there are days of no heat. And when temperatures are up, they give continuous heat that you become sick. No proper control of the heat. Sometimes, there is no hot water during winter. No elevator. No laundry. The super living in the building isn’t super. He just takes the trash out. There is no control of the rent. It’s not worth the rent. Run from this property. There

Advice to the owners

You really need to invest and fix all the problems. Who knows who might sue you for concealing facts and not fixing the problems. You need to change your super, management. There are bugs hiding in the thousands of cracks and crevices.
