Affordable rent, spacious apartment with character
Pros
Good price Good pest control Nice neighbors Spacious
Cons
Trash smell because trash isn’t taken out often enough so it’s always overflowing. Floors in the apartment are very worn down, have gotten splinters and injuries and there’s holes in the floor. Has lots of “landlord special” repairs with messy paint everywhere and paint used to cover holes in floor. Pain is bubbling and falling off. Kitchen is very outdated, simple fixes could make it much better.
Advice to the owners
Simple renovations could make this a much more habitable place.
No one cares
Pros
Location, that’s it.
Cons
The super is the cousin of the previous super - meaning he’s not a skilled super and doesn’t know what he’s doing. He’s rude and arrogant and lets the garbage collect forever before emptying them (literally the only thing he does). There’s been an ongoing mouse issue for years that no one has done anything about. Avoid this over priced, shitty building. Also, our landlord is holding on to our deposit and legit said “I don’t care.” And the board isn’t helping at all.
Advice to the owners
Invest in a real super. Make your owned shops are renting out do upgrades to their units. Implement a system for the laundry that actually works (the app is garbage), and force tenants to abide by the proper area rug laws since the building is old and everything is so insanely loud.
