Invest in perhaps installing security cameras in the building to prevent package theft.

Advice to owner:
There is a huge maintenance problem at this location. The building is covered with grime and could use with new lighting. It’s scary to come to the building at night as you can barely see. I wish they would paint the hallways a brighter color. Also the apartments efficiency rating is at a 59/100, a C. Electricity bills are very high and that’s with making sure all applicances are disconnected at night. There are so many improvements that could be done but it seems Heights Realty does not care to allocate funds for their tenants hard work.
