507 East 73 Street,

Manhattan, NY 10021

Affordable rent
Responsive management

Small units
Pest problem
Broken laundry room

Great neighborhood. Pretty quiet building and minimal issues.

Small apartments, not great response time from maintenance

-Cheap rent, repainted and cleaned rooms before moving in
-Great neighborhood but you can live in other buildings around the area

-Horrible responsiveness of the building management: the laundry has been closed for 4 months with no communication of when it will be reopened, even though laundry is listed in the amenities.
-Terrible experience with management: they have lost my rent checks 3 times and make you pay for the cancellation fees, I have had them hang up on me on the phone for asking for an email or written forms of communication (they are only responsive over the phone where there is no written evidence)
-Protect yourself: in case they try to fuck you over, you will need to gather evidence thoroughly-- they do not have your best interest in mind at all
-Tiny rooms with constant maintenance issues
-Current history of mice/rats and cockroaches

Be a better, responsible owner with actual manners; otherwise I encourage everyone to never live here

It’s affordable
Pet friendly

No laundry- I’ve been here 6 months and the laundry room has been out of service the whole time.
No cold water for days at a time- but scalding water constantly
No response from owner - had to call 311 so I could take a shower
Constant package theft
Door is jammed constantly- keys get stuck all the time
Call boxes don’t work
Building has been cited for structural damage and they painted over it
Unit was not cleaned
Painters painted over outlet’s and lights
Neighbors are creepy and loud
Water pressure - 0
Shower screams and shakes
Heat pipes leak rust water
Windows hard to open
Property not taken care of nor updated

Take the rent money and actually update your units. Having leaking heat pipes is concerning

Good location near the Q train, away from more busy areas, and nearby good hospitals.

Cockroaches in shared areas. (I watched a cockroach crawl into my apartment under my door from the stairwell & my cat chased it back out)
4 of the shared washers and dryers between 120 units have been broken for over a year. When I was asked about a lease renewal, I brought this up and they said they are still working with a supplier.
Owner and super and management will ignore every issue until they are absolutely forced to do something.
Water leaks, they don't fix it, then they later complain water consumption is high. (My radiator leaked into apartment below - they never fixed it because they "needed a new part" that never came. My toilet was broken and leaked all over my apartment floor - they never fixed it after visiting 3 times and telling me they need to replace the entire toilet).
Busy road to get to FDR with a dangerous intersection.

Respond to tenants - the bare minimum. Promise to resolve issues and actually follow through on it. Don't increase rent by +30% with nothing to show for it.

Newly renovated units at a beyond affordable price. My deposit was returned without pushback. Management is responsive.

It’s an older building so i needed repairs a few times a year. Maintenance is good but they will forget about you if you don’t follow up.

Neighborhood. Units are at least somewhat updated. Super and his staff are very nice and mean well, but are limited in what they can do.

Biggest is pest control, roaches and mice everywhere. Ants in spring. Moths and flies coming from other apartments. Maintenance is far behind, takes forever to get anything fixed. The super and his staff mean well but seem to be limited by the owner and management. Management take forever to get back to you. Location is a con being on the entrance to the FDR, traffic noise is nonstop. Laundry room was horrible.

Up the maintenance and pest control budget.
