Hot Water Issues in the past
Pros
Close to train, quiet
Cons
Poor management, hot water issues,
Don't live in the duplex with basement (lots of leaks and mold)
Pros
Great sound insulation, never had a problem with rats, safe, never had a package stolen, never had water pressure issues.
Cons
I lived here for 1.5 years in a unit with a basement on the first floor, and the management was horrible. It repeatedly flooded during storms and management responsiveness was very low. In our last week there, it flooded the upstairs (first floor) from the ceiling, and there was water everywhere. We asked them for a mop and buckets to help and they didn't show up until a few days later. Whenever we would report a leak, they would just paint over it on the wall instead of addressing the actual problem. There was visible mold in a closet in the basement despite the paint. We also had an ant problem.
Advice to the owners
Be better?!?!! Don't illegally deregulate these kinds of units as well. This building definitely should still be rent stabilized.
