I loved the location, super great proximity to the train, TJ's, Whole Foods. Most of my neighbors were great, management is responsive and helpful

In the three years I lived here, we had mice three times and roaches twice. The neighbors are extremely loud sometimes, the stairwell has roaches, and it is super dirty. And your packages WILL get stolen.

decent water pressure, heat never faltered

DIRTY. INFESTED. UNRESPONSIVE SUPER.

TAKE BETTER CARE OF UR PROPERTY

Great location and tall ceilings

Unresponsive management (claim they don't have internet at their office so can't email with anyone?). Had a leak in our ceiling and it took them 6 different times to fix it for good.

Email with tenants

the layout of the apartment was great

management fairly unresponsive to issues

Minimal pests inside

Completely ruined ceiling, landlord “fixed” 3 times and still would flood our living room every time it rained or snow melted. Rats roam garbage in front of building and

More pest control outside, ACTUALLY fix roof

Great light (south facing windows), big space for the price, has a dishwasher, great water pressure, haven’t seen any mice , on the same block as the entrance to 1/2/3 subway

Occasional leaks, big cockroach problem initially (but we called and they came to spray the apt the next day), dirty hallways (though they are cleaned once in a while), appliances are slightly outdated

Update the appliances, make sure the apartment is clean before new tenants move in, fill in holes between the molding and floor

no mice that i’ve seen, spacious apartment layout, trader joes + whole foods only a few blocks away, close to the 123 trains

there are so many, so i’ll just list them:

-FLY INFESTATION! little gnats come out of every pipe, and literally hundreds of big flies buzzing around the outside building AND on the stairwells!

-Garbage everywhere (inside and outside the building)

-lowkey sketchy area at night, there is a hotel full of druggies right next door , and a crazy man across the street who screams bloody murder and punches the air at all hours of the night

-the super NEVER answers when there’s a problem! the one time he picked up, the second i spoke
he hung up on me. had to pay out of pocket for every apartment issue that he was responsible for

-get an exterminator to fix the fly issue, it drives everyone crazy


-PLEASE HIRE A NEW SUPER!!! WHEN THERE ARE ISSUES THE SUPER NEVER RESPONDS! ITS LITERALLY HIS JOB!

Location, apartment size, and quietness. Neighbors seem to be pretty chill, even though people are moving in and out all the time.

There’s no Super at all on the premises and you are not allowed a phone number contact him directly. You have to call the management office to schedule the Super to come, which they ignore you unless it’s a big problem. Tells me that he doesn’t live nearby or works for multiple buildings around the city.

FILTHY. This place is disgusting in the common areas! No one cleans the common areas, it’s been dirty all year long. Have walked over the same spills, stains, garbage for over a year. No one cleans the trash off the common area floors, I wait and then I usually do it.

There is a major bug problem with no actual way to schedule an exterminator. There are open holes and crevices that are ignored, so pests easily come and go. Rat traps are not managed regularly, because I took the garbage out and watched a rat come out of a trap, then take trash back into the trap with it. There are more rats around at night and coming in/out of the building you have to jump over scrambling rats all over.

They charge an arm and a leg because of the location, but they don’t take care of the building for their residents, so it’s not worth the insane prices.

Take care of your building and show that you care more about the residents who you rent to. You might be surprised at how well it would work out for you.
