    Terrible Building Horrible Management Even Worse Broker Andres
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    location, other than that nothing
    Cons:
    No super, they will lie and say there is a super but there isn’t, management company “casa properties” is horrible and unresponsive, they do not that complains seriously. Reveal Real Estate which is contracted to rent out the unit in the building will try illegally enter your apartment and harass and threaten you if you don’t allow them to enter. They will also try to enter without 24 hour written notice, and outside of normal business hours. Structurally the building is in disrepair, our roof leaks non stop and the hallways and lobby of the building are disgusting, trash will sit out for weeks without anyone coming to clean it. Trash will also pile up in the basement causing horrible smells and pest issues. Your packages will be stolen and you will not feel safe living here. They will try to squeeze every penny they can out of you, they will cash your rent checks and they claim they never received your check for that months and try to fine you $50 late fee. Save yourselves the trouble, do not under any circumstances live here!!!
    Advice to owner:
    changing everything you do in the way of business.

    Older building but responsive super
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Responsive super, building is clean
    Cons:
    Older unit isn’t sealed well so it’s a little chilly in the winter. Sometimes the boiler struggles to keep up/breaks (but the super fixes it quickly).
    Advice to owner:
    Suggest sealing windows to keep heat from escaping.

    Heat? What heat?
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Its a cozy building, and its insulated from the noise immediately outside.
    Cons:
    The heat and hot water can't be taken for granted... It frequently doesn't work. Truly, I thought I might freeze to death this past winter bc I was working from home in the pandemic and there weren't open public spaces for coworking.
    Advice to owner:
    Pls fix the boiler
    And my goodness the rent is too high to be having this problem
