Good neighbors, surprisingly quiet
Pros
Building was well maintained with a highly responsive super. The unit was shockingly quiet despite living just off Broadway. Neighbors were great and I felt watched over coming in and out of the building. Transit access is the best I've ever experienced in NYC. Close to so much greenspace, including riverside access. Unit was newly renovated when I moved in.
Cons
Landlord was only average level scummy, my unit was owned by a faceless company that bait and switched my security deposit to a broker fee at lease signing, knowing I was in no position to walk away at that point. Management company was non responsive to concerns, although this barely impacted living conditions since the super was incredible. Slight roach problem in the basement and lower floors. Occasional pest in the 5th floor unit.
Needs Better Management
Pros
They repaint a lot and have an elevator. The garbage never gets too messy. The super is probably the best part of the building.
Cons
R&E Leasing Management is so sketchy. They will randomly pair you with roommates and are not responsive when you try to suggest your own friends to take over the sublease of each individual room. They make so much money off of us and keep raining the rent really high.
Advice to the owners
Be more responsive to your tenants please! Especially about roommates. It’s difficult to live people you’re not compatible with.
