Flood caused signs of mold
Pros
I liked the unit itself (beautiful) but after living here over a year we found many issues with management, neighbors, and the area.
Cons
We found there to be mold signs in our hallways after our floor flooded and management’s only resolution was running fans and dehumidifiers for 2 months, and then placing the baseboards back over the mold. We had water coming up from under our floorboards and while we can’t see mold, we certainly expect it to be there. Strong smell of mildew, and zero communication (unless reactive responses to tenant emails) regarding the flood. Often we could hear our neighbors directly through the walls. There were over 4 occasions where I had to email a complaint to management after finding VOMIT in the elevators in the early morning hours. There is always dog poop and trash up and down the entire block, and is even messier now since next door there is ongoing construction which not only created noise but affected the water quality for some of the tenants living here.
Advice to the owners
Compensate your tenants when they are not receiving the living experience they pay for. The fact no rent abatement was offered when we have buckling floorboards and base boards and have to run a dehumidifier nonstop in our apartment is insane and not worth the astronomical prices of the unit. Be proactive and communicate with tenants regarding events in the building that may have impacted their living experience, rather than only emailing to collect rent.
