Unclean Tenants & Poor Management.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Building is mostly kept clean.
Building has natural light.
Neighbors are mostly quiet.
Garbage & recycling is regularly collected.
Laundry room.
Close to everything.
Cons:
Elevator is small.
Old appliances but modern rent.
Broken appliances are replaced with older appliances.
Washing Machine & Dryers are sometimes unusable due to needed repair or needed cleaning or just user error making the machine one you don’t want to use.
Neighbors are uncleanly often leaving trash around and leaving laundry room/machines in poor condition.
Repairs needed to be done are left undone for weeks at a time without any apparent reason and no response from the building.
No heat on some cold days.
It is often difficult to get into contact with anybody from management to address and issue, concern, or even get a simple question answered.
Advice to owner:
Replace your old & broken appliances with New ones. Fix issues in your building faster. Repairs on anything should not take MONTHS.

Welcome to Roach City
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is clean, quiet, and conveniently located, which makes it attractive. The rents are reasonable.
Cons:
The building is hopelessly infested with cockroaches. They will be in your apartment for the duration of your lease. The super ignores and dodges requests, but immediately harasses you about anything she sees wrong. She acts like she owns the place.

The laundry in the building is practically not a perk, as at least 1 of the 3 machines is always broken and people are using them all day long.
Advice to owner:
Kill the roaches

Clean and affordable
Former Tenant
Pros:
Clean, elevator, laundry in the building, affordable rent, nice size apartments.
Cons:
Infront of the hospital so it gets loud. Laundry is closing too early and has only 3 washing machines. Sometimes you need to wait long time on your turn to use washer/dryer.
Advice to owner:
Get more washing snd drying machines.

Great Apartment Building
Former Tenant
Pros:
It was a great place to live for three years. Super was super, laundry was always working, water pressure was great.
Cons:
Emailing management company was a hassle. Even calling was difficult. They promised to renovate the lobby and in three years it didn't happen.
Advice to owner:
Be a bit more responsive, but otherwise great.

Good apartment in nice neighborhood
Former Tenant
Pros:
Super/ laundry is in the building
The unit I lived was renovated, so soundproof was good, also pretty clean
Cons:
You see roaches sometimes, but fairly okay for the 2nd floor
It’s a pet friendly building so I expected the dog barking noises, but there was a dog that barked for straight 10 hours once it started to bark. I hope they moved out
