Horrible Management, bed bugs and illegal practices
Former Tenant
Pros:
super on sight for repairs and maintenance
Cons:
Uncontrolled pest problem, gone into foreclosure, leaks, roof needs repair, unreported ongoing bed bug infestation across multiple apartments, breaks rent stabilization laws, lying to new tenants about rent stabilized status. incomplete renovations, exposed wires, un-caulked bathroom, cheap fixtures. Don’t respond to complaints, repair requests, thefts. Multiple break ins gone unreported to police.
Advice to owner:
Respond and manage your building, too much indifference and no integrity

Decent apartment complex
Former Tenant
Pros:
-Virtual doorman was very convenient. -Super is really nice. -A/C units were nice to have, but leaked quite a bit.
Cons:
-Can be slow to respond to issues -- even the essential ones like heating/hot water going out. -Front doors would be locked every once in a while and we couldn't get in or out of the building.

Incompetent management, no heat, no hot water, no electric
Former Tenant
Pros:
The location is great. The apartments are spacious. The super is nice and responsive.
Cons:
The management will not respond. They don’t know basic book keeping and will invoice tenants with false charges. Management takes a week for basic maintenance like power going out.
Advice to owner:
Sell the building. Building management is a job not an investment. You need to sell to somebody who is able to do basic maintenance and bookkeeping.

Communication sucks
Former Tenant
Pros:
-I haven’t seen any roaches or rodents Windows are big -the maintenance guy is really cool
Cons:
-Laundry is actually outside the main entrance, you need to walk outside of the entrance and into the basement -heating is sometimes not functional -management is very slow and not responsive. I had to call more than 3 times and email multiple threads to solve an issue and they were always telling us that they would call us back because they didn’t have an answer
Advice to owner:
Please get a new management service

Avoid at all costs
Former Tenant
Pros:
Building looks nice
Cons:
Hands down the worst place I’ve ever lived. Roach and mice infestations, electricity loss including no heat in winter, no response from management, mold, laundry rarely working. And good luck getting a hold of the management or super via any form of communication. Literally slumlords. This is incredibly an unsafe, uninhabitable, and unsanitary building. Not to mention that they will charge you for bogus items when you try to get your security deposit back. Everything this company does is illegal and they don’t care about their tenants whatsoever.
Advice to owner:
Sell the place to someone who will actually upkeep it. Slumlords should not own property.

Awful Managment Awful Everything
Former Tenant
Pros:
Newly renovated, nice light
Cons:
Absolutely awful management. So many problems. So little communication. No compensation or communication during a week and half long power outage during the winter in the middle of the pandemic. Burglary on returning our security deposit (or lack thereof). So many roaches, and we kept our apartment immaculately clean. Extermination came once a month and did a lousy job. Awful thin walls, you can hear a needle drop upstairs. Neighbors blasted music all through the night into the morning and management did nothing about it. Landlord is a thief with many violations. Nice new apartment but don’t give your money to these crooks.
Advice to owner:
Stop being a thief.

Newly renovated but horrible management
