Unhelpful management for yucky problems
Pros
Pretty close to the train, neighbors were always friendly. I loved all the dogs and the families who live there.
Cons
We had mushrooms grow out of our bathroom ceiling-- I am NOT joking and would upload a picture here if I could. We didn't have light in our bathroom for three months despite borderline-harassing management begging them to fix it, and every single month we were given a late fee on rent despite always making timely payments. Only when I sent certified mail with my law firm's letterhead did they say "oops! my bad." Like, I get it. It's an old building. Upkeep is hard. There are going to be rats and roaches. But the people living here deserve better than to walk into their dark bathroom see 20 roaches scuttle off, and see that the fungal infestation in their bathtub has gotten bigger. There are a lot of elderly people and kids who could get sick, and management owes them a turnaround faster than three months.
Advice to the owners
Hire more people to manage, if you need! I know you're making money now that the neighborhood is gentrifying, you can afford to pay more people!
Would be a perfect apartment if there weren’t roaches in the sink pipes
Pros
Steps away from riverside park, affordable, updated appliances, great neighbors, can use rhino for deposit, responsive management.
Cons
The sink water pipes are full of German Cockroaches. Doesn’t matter how clean you keep your apartment and kitchen sink - they will pop out every once in a while and during the beginning of the spring we had an infestation. Monthly pest control did not combat this issue - had to get special treatment
