Pest problems and cheap management
Pros
Location was nice
Cons
We had a rat problem, no regular exterminator service only once the problem is already there and bad. The landlord was very cheap and would fix all problems with temporary fixes meaning that the issues would come back.
Advice to the owners
Be more responsive and work on prevention of the issues that happen frequently
Was cheap, is spacious
Pros
High ceilings, spacious, prewar flourishes. Been here for 10+ years and the neighbors are something special.
Cons
Roaches pretty much since we got here. Bastards have never addressed it properly. Had a nightmare scenario with bed bugs early on and management was antagonistic every step of the way. Live in porter, no super. Few years ago multiple female tenants mailed to everyone details that he had harassed them. I know one of the accusers and its reliable to me. He went door to door afterwards with a weird letter that called everyone a liar. Anyway, hes still here…
