Poorly Maintained
Former Tenant
Pros:
Close to subway and Cortelyou
Cons:
Very poorly kept. People constantly smoking cigarettes in building and lobby and leaving cigarette butts and tobacco everywhere. No action taken to stop. Roaches everywhere. Barbecues happening throughout all hours of the night any day of the week, any time of year. Rent rises every year, but condition of building and units deteriorate.
Advice to owner:
Manage the property. If you just want to make a ton of money, sell cars or drugs. Don’t go into a profession where you are responsible for maintaining a quality of life for people.
