rough around the edges but good

Pros

responsive super, monthly pest control options but not necessary. Cleanish in common areas.

Cons

Water temperature is finicky. I’ve burned myself in shower. Trash and door area can get a little funky.

WORST MANAGEMENT EVER

Pros

Location, literally the only good thing about this place.

Cons

This is the worst management I’ve ever worked with and I’ve lived in 3 other apartments all throughout the city. There were so many issues we had when we moved in (i.e. the intercom didn’t work, there wasn’t any gas but there were gas appliances). And when we addressed these issues, it took forever for them to do anything. When they tried fixing the issues, they used the cheapest products which resulted in things being broken again. We also had a mice issue and addressed over and over. We had a exterminator come and address the issue but the management didn’t want to pay the exterminator to actually close the holes up. Instead they hired construction workers to close it up for a cheaper price, however, they weren’t professionals so we continuously had mice. Overall, AVOID THIS MANAGEMENT AT ALL COST.

Advice to the owners

Actually communicate with your tenants and not avoid them. Listen to them and work with them on making their home a livable place. They are paying an arm and a leg to live there, the least you can do is make the place habitable.
