Great location, small but mighty apartment
Pros
Location was very convenient, laundry in building always a plus
Cons
Repairs take a long time to schedule
Advice to the owners
Water pressure in sinks need to be fixed
Hostile Landlords toward rent stabilised tenants
Pros
Run by a management company so they are pretty quick with responding to small repairs.
Cons
Management is extremely hostile to rent stabilised tenants I had a gas leak in my apartment for 3 months when I moved in. I was told from the previous tenant that the stove was supposed to be replaced before I moved in, when I followed up with management they acted like they. didn't know what I was talking about. I smelled gas and called them and they sent a plumber who said nothing was wrong. A few months later I really smelled gas and got scared so I called Con ED. There was a gas leak from the stove. Management and my super were both upset with me and kept asking why I didn't call them first and asked me to pay for the stove to be replaced. My gas bill went down. $30 after that. There was $30 worth of gas leaking into my apartment for 3 months and management was mad at me. They also sent a letter trying to scare me into vacating the apartment due to small sublet fees they had been charging without notifying us. The super was constantly watching me and trying to find ways to get me kicked out. They really wanted to renovate and raise the rent.
Advice to the owners
Have basic compassion for your tenants
