Unit c3a Pros: The super and building staff is incredibly kind with positive, good energy. And the tenants are great - longterm and older tenants who say hello to their neighbors and newer tenants who understand the community feel. Generally the management is responsive. Cons: The heater is violently loud. The management company is always trying to get away with things that are barely legal in order to raise rents like shady MCI increases. The day to day building managers seem to last about 2-3 years and are either dumb or told to purposefully dispute things in order to avoid responsibility. And they always raise the rent - 1st years before they updated the rent laws for rent stabilized and I had "preferential rent" they tried to raise it 7%. Advice to landlord: Look at creating more of a community with the tenants and be more responsive with more complex requests. Having longterm tenants in will be a higher ROI than quick-fix, and shady tactics to raise the rents.

Unit D6i Pros: Building D has some units renovated so had a fresh look. Cons: Elevator stink. Leasing group never want to put any money to solve root problems and always find temporary solutions. Roaches in building. Many MCI have been ignored and rent hikes are permitted within rent stabilized percentage. Advice to landlord: Put in the money to solve root problems. Stop taking shortcuts and taking advantage of the elderly families that have lived here for generations

Pros: Management is very responsive to concerns Friendly neighbors for the most part Unit was newly remodeled Bus right in front of building Cons: Some noise on ground floor, people hanging out in lobby, lot of echoes Seems they are favoring new renters, not the long term tenants

Pros: Relatively safe neighborhood; nice neighbors. Cons: Persistent construction noise, lobby is used for gatherings so noise reverberates, it’s also used for skateboarding and place for children to run around so the echo of the voice is constant. Mice infestation for 2 years while on rent, owner consistently failed to address the issue. Pest control detected hole behind the dry walls. Wiring for internet is impacted by construction so there is regular disconnection/not ideal for people working remotely. Advice to landlord: Just address the issues. Focus on structural renovation and not synthetic make-overs.
