One Bad Management After Another
Pros
Great location, in unit laundry, friendly neighbors, and even friendlier super
Cons
Upon first moving in, there were already several problems with the unit and building: roaches, broken washer/dryer, leaking kitchen sink pipe, broken ceiling lights and fire alarms, mold growing around the grouting of the tub, a broken oven, strange layout of the apartment that doesn’t allow the internet to reach some of the bedrooms, etc. To top it off, management was impossible to get ahold of and to actually come fix these things. The property got sold to a new management company 4 months into the lease. This group is still impossible to get ahold of. The only pro about the new management company is that they hired a super passionate, friendly, and communicative super who tries his best despite his difficult higher ups.
Advice to the owners
If you weren’t read to manage this building maybe you shouldn’t have bought it.
Get ready for maintenance issues
Pros
Beautiful location on Central Park West. Kitchen/living room area is fairly spacious. Other tenants are relatively quiet.
Cons
Pest issues weren't treated with much urgency. Small broken items / maintenance issues that you have to contact management about several times for action.
