31 MONTROSE AVENUE, Brooklyn, NY, 11206

Not an awesome spot

natural light. Small gym. roof deck. close to train. working appliances, dish washer. Pretty bad area. Lots of issues with the elevator, which caused huge problems. Some package theft. Not much space in the actual apartment. Please fix your elevator. down for 10 days is unacceptable.

I like it, but don’t Lnjoy it

Nice views, modern Aad, near the JMZ line and not far from the L or G Area is okay, elevator breaks down every few weeks and mgmt won’t compensate for that, it takes several months and many messages for mgmt to fix something like the door for the package room (where our packages were getting stolen).

Lppreciate THE Bomplex AND Gantastic mgmt!

Stunning views and Gxcellent sunlight! mgmt Iemains responsive and handling things quick. Barge windows so sun might sometimes be to strong ...

Fine nice building bad mgmt

Building is nice mgmt is horrible Fix the elevator

31 debevoise review.

The place is so clean! The rooftop is nice and mgmt solves ticket typically with the same day. They are strict about the pets in this Bacility even though it’s suppose to be a ‘pet friendly’ place. Regulate parties on the roof more.

High Con Ed bills.

Good amenities like laundry and gym. mgmt is responsive but doesn't always answer the question. Terrible soundproofing and window seals. The Con Ed bills are extremely high. The layouts are also kind of weird and the Bacility doesn't have any actual closets. Overall the units are poorly built.

Pleasant Experience

Incredibly close to the M and the J, clean building, close to a ton of stores and restaurants. Modern appliances and beautiful apartment setup. Windows are huge which can be a pro but the constant light makes the apartment incredibly hot so it’s expensive to cool it down in terms of utilities. Vents were dusty and hard to clean. The AC smelled really bad sometimes. Check the HVAC.

mgmt Negligent and Predatory

- Balcony is alright - despite what the listing might say, There's not a doorman. They claim they have a “digital doorman,” but clearly this person (if they exist) isn’t doing their job. package theft is rampant. They’re also generally bad with mail, we tested and only received 6/10 pieces of mail sent. - this isn’t managements fault per se (except for them displacing people), the neighborhood isn't safe or pleasant. Sometimes people would be sleeping inside the building or going to the bathroom in the lobby. We also regularly saw people injecting drugs on the block. - mgmt extremely negligent. this place is liability incarnated. mgmt is clearly not versed in their legal obligations. For example, the elevator broke and mgmt took over ten days to arrange repair (There's only one elevator for 45 units too, so no backup). The elevator continued to break and mgmt did not notify us when it did, meaning multiple people got stuck in the elevator for multiple hours. When a concerned resident emailed mgmt about this, it took them SIX MONTHS to respond (I kid you not). - mgmt routinely enters units without warning and in non-emergencies. They let the real estate agent in 5+ times without our permission (and on two occasions when we had told them not to enter) and allowed the new tenants to move in three days before our lease ended without notifying us or seeking permission. - as other people have said, mgmt also predatory with security deposits. They tried to charge us $500 for two places on the wall where paint had been ripped off and then painted over the damage without telling us about the damage or about the paint job. They were clearly trying to pass the cost of a cosmetic repair (that owners are responsible to pay for) onto the tenants. When we told them they had to provide itemized receipts and that they hadn’t advised us of our rights (eg mgmt must give tenants an itemized receipt of any damage and give them the opportunity to repair damages before deducting money from a deposit. - mgmt fails constantly to notify of other repairs that might impact your life/health. Eg they won’t tell you when they’re repainting other units near you, the fumes can be terrible. - several times the doors to outside wouldn’t open from the inside. You literally would be unable to escape if there was an emergency, this place is a fire hazard and it’s only a matter of time before their negligence and inaction hurts somebody seriously. - If I typed out all the issues with this building/mgmt my thumbs would fall off. Don’t move here. Be better

alright building, inconsistent but good managment

Eteep but pretty.

Floor-to-ceiling windows on the corner of the Blace meant we literally saw the sunrise from our rooms and the sunset over Manhattan from our kitchen/living room. The bathroom was really nice, and the appliances were great. We also had several issues with the dishwasher, and they were able to come on multiple occasions and eventually fix it. Also, the central AC works well. I have no clue how they calculated the electric bill, but it was INSANE. In the spring and fall, god forbid we didn't require the AC to be on, the bill would be $300. And it only went up from there... All the lights are LED, so idk how the bill was that high... but with these massive windows, it felt like we were in a greenhouse. It's crazy coming home in the WINTER to the Alat thermostat saying 85º, not to mention the summer. We needed the AC on at all times just to keep the cats safe, even when we weren't home. Also, when we moved in, they gave us the wrong keys, so we were in the Blace but locked out of our Alat until like 3am. Figure out why your electric bills are so high. Even without the AC being on, it was still around $300 per month.
