Reviews

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Great Brownstone in Bed-Stuy

Pros

The management company is unmatched. They are incredibly kind, responsive, and on top of things. The rent prices are also really modestly raised each year. Any time I have an issue that needs fixed they are really quick to come and fix things or help with installation or removal of things. It’s a quiet building and there is a suitable washer and dryer in the basement that takes quarters. The neighborhood is wonderful and there are so many great places nearby to eat and get drinks. I’ve loved living in this neighborhood.

Cons

The insulation isn’t great so the building gets very cold in the winter and the heating units aren’t the best for cold weather. However, they do work really well in the summer. Just expect a higher electricity bill in the winter.

Advice to the owners

Keep doing what you’re doing! Was such a pleasure to live in a place where the property owner really takes care of residents.

A Brooklyn Gem

Pros

amazing landlords who treat the property as their own home. The details/finishes in the apartment had a true touch of care and management was always responsive to issues.

Cons

the hallways could use cleaning by the super once in a while.
