2022 Worst landlord: number 39
Former Tenant
Pros:
The tenants are all great, being right next to the Church ave station is very convenient. Some apartments are renovated-ish.
Cons:
There is an obscene amount of open HPD violations that are ignored such as: faulty elevators people get stuck in, rodents and roaches, leaking ceilings, water being cut off from the whole building with no / short notice, etc. Tenants have had to organize in order to have basic needs met!
Advice to owner:
Meet our demands and provide livable housing to all tenants.

Home is where the heart is
Former Tenant
Pros:
Same block as train
Amazing community and environment
Cultural environment
Amazing restaurants, clothing stores, and other establishments
Laundromat!
Cons:
It can be pest but once controlled the problem is solved. Same for waterbugs is the summertime.
Advice to owner:
Can be more consistent

1. Spacious rooms, especially bedroom and living room.
2. Eric is a wonderful porter and works hard at his job.
Cons:
1. Noise levels of neighbors outside.
2. Right by a train so tons of pedestrian traffic.
