    1 year tenant
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Price, rent stabilized
    Cons:
    Pest management (cockroaches and mice), people congregating in alleyways and throwing trash out there, bad garbage management, severe maintenance issues. For example, the bathroom ceiling collapsed, leaving a 3-foot hole, and was leaking water.
    Advice to owner:
    Get a better super

    Pure trash
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It’s still standing
    Cons:
    Crappy management, unprofessional and incompetent super, terrible building conditions including persistent leaks and vermin.
    Advice to owner:
    Stop hiring incompetent, cheap labor and take care of building issues the right way. Don’t keep ignoring tenant complaints. Get a professional super who actually knows how to make repairs and isn’t a rude and disrespectful jerk to tenants. Change management companies because this one is trash. Stop retaliating whenever a tenant makes a complaint and actually do your job.
