Management will try and scam you out of security deposit
Former Tenant
Pros:
Management is responsive and quick to make repairs while you are a tenant
Neighbors are great and respectful
Quiet area
Neighbors are great and respectful
Quiet area
Cons:
Owner will attempt to increase the rent frequently and sometimes be amounts that exceed 5% no room for negotiation
All communication from management ceased when I requested back my security deposit. After over a month of no response despite multiple outreaches I begin to fear (probably correctly) that it was the owners intention was to scam me out of it. It took a letter from my lawyer to get my first response in a month and a half of silence and even then the owner informed me was keeping a “cleaning fee” of $250 even though the apartment was left in broom swept condition.
The super pressured me into returning apartment early as a favor to him so he could begin painting early (I unfortunately complied)
Was not given a walk through even when I requested a walk through
Requested I be informed to what level they would like the apartment cleaned before I moved out and was ignored
Itemized receipts for the owners “cleaning fee” not included with the deduction.

Good management and good pest control.
Former Tenant
Pros:
This is a really good building, I’ve lived in two different apartments in this building bc I didn’t want to leave! There is monthly extermination and very responsible management. I believe the landlord’s mother is living in the building, so it’s a pretty well kept building!
Cons:
The hallways and stairwell is not super clean, and some of the tiles on the stairs are loose.

Love Living Here
Former Tenant
Pros:
I haven't seen many other units but my apartment is absolutely lovely. Raimo (the building manager) is wonderful and everyone who lives here seems to be very nice.
Cons:
I've been told that it's only certain units but my apartment does get quite cold, especially when it's not quite cold enough outside for the heat to be on. When the heat is on, it's warm and toasty and comfortable.
Advice to owner:
I don't check exact temperatures, but I would appreciate if the heat were on when it's cold outside. When it is on, it's quite warm and comfortable.
