Pros: Spacious apartments, elevators, package room, laundry in building. Cons: Pest was a huge problem and was hard to get someone to take care of it. Also to get ahold of someone to get anything fixed was always a problem and when it came time to end our lease the management was very rude and constantly losing my information. Advice to landlord: Do better on keeping track of tenants private information.

Pros: Big apartment. Supermarket, trains and bars are nearby. Cons: No heat. No good pest control. I had beg bugs twice in 4 years without any assistance from management. Apartment has been taken over by rats and roaches. Water pressure is low at times and runs brown at times. Tub continues to be backed up. Elevators are not dependable- had to climb 18 flights this summer multiple times. Management is the worst- unresponsive to phone calls or visits. Package room always has a long wait. A lot of smoking in the staircase. Security has limited authority to assist tenants with any problems. They don’t allow food deliveries to come through front of building which results in food deliveries being cancelled. High rental increases after lease expirations. They are very quick to sue tenants. Mixed income building comes with mixed income problems… Advice to landlord: Do better. Be more responsive to tenants. Address pest and water issues. Fix the elevators. Market rate tenants are moving out of the building in swarms. These 1 bedroom apartments are not worth $2500.

Unit E4F Pros: Sense of community Cons: Brown water comes out of the bathtub faucet when you turn it on, tons of cockroaches, not much heat from the gas heat, it’s so cold in the winter. Extremely noisy neighbors, many have their doors open, the walls are thin. Poor management , I complained about noisy neighbors multiple times and they completely disregarded me for months. The air circulation in the apt is poor…condensation is poor…there is a film of dust every day on the floor from dust coming through the AC vents. The building is next to a train. The management asks the tenants to keep water in their bathtub for water atleast once every few months. They will turn the water off for some reason. The staff is another big problem. They are extremely rude…have poor English, and refuse to actually tend to tenants needs. Instead they respond with attitude and lazily fulfill requests with no care or effort. They will usually make an excuse and tell you they can not help you. They also treat tenants so rudely. Lastly it is impossible to speak with management. They will provide you with an email and number on your welcome day packet….no one will pick up the phone, and it goes to an automated voice message that tells you they will respond back asap. I’ve called atleast maybe 40 times and left at least 40 messages….I’ve never received a call back regarding any of those messages. Please beware if interested in this building, they are charging luxury prices for unacceptable conditions. I have many friends going through legal issues and mental health issues after living here…..BEWARE! Advice to landlord: Respond to tenants needs immediately. We are paying thousands of dollars to afford the rising cost of living here. I didn’t mind the higher price because of the beautiful living condition that was falsely advertised. I would like acceptable living conditions so that we can have a healthy and forward thinking lifestyle in order to make these big bucks. Thank you.

Unit C24C Pros: Close to the 1 train, spacious apartments, laundry in building, great water pressure and temperature, they keep the hallways clean, there's a package room so no stolen packages Cons: It's very expensive for the area, maintenance can sometimes take a long time to respond, sometimes the laundry room closes with no notice, they don't turn the heat on until it's veryyyy cold. Advice to landlord: offer reasonable renewals to keep the good ones (:

Pros: It’s close to a train stop. Cons: This building is trash. Beyond over priced. Roach problems. No control over the heat so AC has to run year round. Neighbors who are loud, disgusting pigs, throwing their trash out their windows onto the walkway that everyone enters/exits from. I’ve seen dirty diapers, and almost got hit by a take out container. I feel horrible for the maintenance people who have to deal with this bullshit. Advice to landlord: They don’t care. Why would they even listen to this when they don’t listen to us when we’re paying rent here? It’s laughable.

Pros: Location and access to M4, M5, M11 buses and the 1 train. Easy to get to the city and close to Columbia. Cons: Everything inside the building. We are surrounded by a crack den, a woman who fights on the phone in the hall ways, and a couple who plays music until 3am. The management has not done anything. Once a month we call security to kick out a drunk man knocking on the floor looking for a guy who slept with his wife and asking for hammer. We've also had rats & cockroaches invade our floor and consistently have neighbors above us throw bags of rice and trash out their window so we get a view of their food from the night before. Oh, and trash chute are on every floor but the neighbors leave it just outside of it so our hallways smell like trash. Advice to landlord: ? Answer emails and be proactive.
