171 Linden Boulevard,

Brooklyn, NY 11226

Though the building is small - I am not bothered by my neighbors except for one incident. It is close to transportation and on a quiet block.

The common areas are not well maintained at all. Laundry is in the basement of the building but the room and machines are in constant disarray. There was also the one incident I mentioned earlier that resembled a dv argument and police did show up but was not notified by building management or anyone that an incident occurred.

Stop promoting the gym/laundry room if you are not going to keep it up to par. They do not look maintained.

Apartments look nice, before they start aging.

The whole building has been made as cheaply as possible. The landlords will go out of their way to spend as little as humanly possible on fixing issues and maintenance, but at the same time will charge you way too much for rent. Most of our neighbors have reported a 20%-30% increase each year around renewal. The building floods, has no heating and the landlords do NOTHING. They do not care about anything besides money and they make it known to their tenants (once the lease is signed).

The building is brand new, their is a gym and doorstop access.

We’ve lived here for about 4 years and love our apartment.

Management is really terrible at communication, especially when it comes to maintenance. Almost taking days or weeks to respond. Sometimes they don’t respond at all.

When they do hire maintenance they are always the worst types of people. We had an exterminator come by and he did nothing at all.

The owner needs to put in the effort to provide qaulity service to their tenenats.

Location was convenient. I liked having a dishwasher.

1) This building was built in what, 2015? Common walls are falling apart by the plaster chunk. The door is frequently broken. The elevator breaks all the time. I have literally been trapped inside it. When it rains, water seeps through exterior walls into the apartment. Absolutely no flood control measures in the basement. 2) Beyond negligent. Not the super’s fault—he doesn’t get materials, support, or information from management. They don’t respond to service requests in a remotely timely manner. They do a bad job addressing issues. EG, plastering over a wall so waterlogged it was spongey. My smoke alarms were broken for MONTHS. 3) Trash rooms are tiny and constantly overflowing. Housekeeping staff uses the same elevator as you, so it always smells like wet trash. 4) Washing machines are constantly broken. Also tiny and overpriced! 5) Walls might as well be made of paper. Get ready for 24/7 baby screaming. 6) It’s just not safe. The stairways are narrow with almost nonexistent landings. The front steps are so slick when they get even a little bit wet that someone is going to break a bone someday. 7) I hope you like the cold! When the wind blows it will come through your balcony door into your home. 8) Speaking of which, it’s so cold in winter you can literally see your breath. 9) The roof is nice! No furniture though. Unfortunately it’s frequently covered in trash. No one cleans it. 10) All this, and they still demanded $700 more a month when lease renewal time came. And proceeded to try and keep half my security deposit for issues they themselves caused or literally invented. Unparalleled. Run.

Get a real job :)

The building WAS clean & very well maintained about 2 years ago. The apartment layouts are modern & cute.

A handyman DOES NOT live on premiss & the building is constantly DIRTY. The main door often brakes & goes weeks w/out repair & people often walk-in off the street & steal packages. The front outside of the building has NEVER been maintained, there's overgrown grass & litter everywhere under the stairs & ramp. The hallway floors (other than the main lobby) & stairs cases don't get swept or mopped for weeks at a time. The laundry room is FILTHY, the washer/dryer machines have never been cleaned, visibly broken & barely repaired. Visible mold & mold smell in the basement. There are unfinished construction projects material visible everywhere. The elevator is always filthy & smelly & isn't wiped clean ever.

The property is falling apart, filthy, unclean, moldy, smell & looks like management DOESN'T care about tenants or the upholding of the building.

Relatively clean and quiet. Renovated and well maintained.

Elevator often has issues, 1/3 washers breaks often and there is no where to fold your laundry, sometimes takes a while to get management to fix things

Change door code regularly (there have at times been issues with package theft).

Location, new and clean with no pest/bug issues, gym usually empty, reasonable and flexible management, heating and cooling units in all rooms

Management sometimes slow to respond, package theft, elevator issues and challenges at move in

Please be clear on who to contact after hours and help tenants when their items are stolen off of their mailboxes.

The building is very new. Neighbors are nice, some are college students though so expect a bit of noise at times. Close to a lot of great food and drink spots and close to transit. 5 min walk to 2/5, 15 min walk to B/Q. It has a small gym but it’s not bad for a free one.

The management is lazy, not as bad as some I have had but if you do not hound them constantly they will not do a thing. Their goal is to operate as cheap as possible and never lift a finger (while charging high rent). Package theft is a huge issue in the building, as the front door is code operated and it seems every thief in the neighborhood knows the code. The new fixtures are nice but never looked after so they age and break quickly. Hot water and heat is all electric and you will pay for it in cold months, expect really high ConEd bills each month.

Actually do something for your tentants. You have a nice building and a little responsiveness will actually make your job easier. No one is mad at you until you don’t do your job. Maybe also clean a little more, your building will last longer that way.
