    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    I liked that the building was managed by a property company that allowed us to pay rent electronically instead of mailing physical checks.
    Cons:
    The mail and packages in the lobby weren’t very secure and people sometimes stole things
    Advice to owner:
    Please have cameras in the lobby for package thieves.
