    A decent place to be 95% of the time
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building is clean and pet-friendly. The location is great -- the neighborhood is vibrant and Prospect Park is within 2 minutes of walk.
    Cons:
    For non-trivial issues (e.g., not fixable by replacing simple parts), the management is often very slow. Past examples involving leakage, trespassing, or failing appliances require active and persistent follow-up.

    Decent prewar walk up near the park
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Recently renovated
    Central air
    Dishwashers
    High ceilings
    Cons:
    Oven is awful
    Top floors have ceiling leak issues
    Maintenance is hit or miss (mostly miss)
    Over 1 year ago
    Like this little block
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Recently renovated, central heat & air, rent stabilized. Nice people in the building, close to the park.
    Cons:
    Apt will flood if it’s rains too much too fast, utilities are high, even though rent stabilized, have used rent concessions to keep rent lower and then try to raise it all at once.
    Advice to owner:
    Don’t Jack up rent for tenants…

    Nice rent-stabilized building, owner slow on maintainance
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Renovated building with heat pump hot water and HVAC. Your electricity bill will be low. Neighbors are nice.
    Cons:
    Maintenance requests are done on the app but seems like they take forever to be dealt with. Fireworks during summer can be annoying especially if you have a dog.
    Advice to owner:
    Respond to maintenance requests more promptly
    Over 1 year ago
    horrible neighbors but never bugs
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    no pest issues ever
    Cons:
    leaky ceiling and absolutely awful neighbors
    Advice to owner:
    evict neighbors that scream for hours every single day
