Shady Landlord Tactics
Pros
Good sized apartments. Ok location.
Cons
Vito is shady - his wife is the broker, so they’re essentially renting you their own apartment and charging a fee (Or they used to — thankfully that’s not legal anymore). They’ll nickel and dime you for every little thing. The building layout is good but they jacked up the rent every year I was there with no room to negotiate. Water damage on the ceiling. Rarely hot water in the showers. Occasional roaches. Terrible kitchen. Rent payment by mail to a PO Box.
Greedy and psychotic
Pros
I like the location. The floor plans aren’t TOO bad. Decent size for 1 br.
Cons
Hallway is gross Radiator leaks Radiator is uncontrollable Hot water is hit or miss. Doesn’t last long. Boiler is down often. Management has a psycho family member with little emotional intelligence. Water leaked through the ceiling. Floors are not straight.
Advice to the owners
Stop being greedy. Stop being a part of the housing problem and raising rent.
