Mouse & Cockroach Infested
Pros
There are none.
Cons
I should have seen the red flags by how poorly maintained the hallway was, but the apartment itself seemed great. Within days of moving in, the roaches started appearing. After exterminator treatments and DIY pest control, the condition was no better. I then ran into my neighbor, who said he has the same issue, and also mice. He showed me his apartment and I realized he was the source of the problem. He is a HOARDER. I have never seen anything like it. Floor to ceiling boxes and garbage, with room for nothing else outside a twin bed. That is when I knew the problem would never truly be solved and I had to move out. I had a nightmarish process breaking my lease although the company found someone to move in within a day - clearly they did not even try to remedy the issue before sending someone else to live in this hellhole. Avoid AJ Clarke Management at all costs. The receptionist Angela and the broker Peter Rohani are horrible people. I ended up having to hire a lawyer and sue them because they withheld my security. Thanks to my diligent documentation of the issue, I won in court. Spread the word and stay away.
Advice to the owners
Realize tenants are humans, do some soul searching, and kick the hoarders out.
