“Unit F1 Pros: beautiful apartments, exterminator comes often, great location Cons: steep rent increases each year Advice to landlord: stop raising the rent so much and kicking out loyal tenants”

“Unit C3 Pros: The people who live here are nice Cons: The owners are cheap, they’ll avoid spending money on the building if at all possible, they are stingy with their employees and mean to their tenants Advice to landlord: It could be a nice building, you seem determined to ruin it”

“Pros: Priced decently for the amount of space, bedrooms get good sunlight, laundry in building, dishwasher in unit, great location right above the subway, beautiful neighborhood Cons: roaches, leaks, management does not respond to tenant issues in a timely manner, mold?, water damaged walls (big time) Advice to landlord: Invest in contractors who will get the job done instead of having super fix all the problems. The super cannot solve major building issues.”

“Unit B3 Pros: Excellent location! Charming lobby space. Cons: We had issues with water leaking to downstairs neighbors on the ground floor that required access to our apartment to fix, but it was an ongoing issue. This was 2017 though so it may have been resolved.”

“Unit B3 Pros: The building and apartment are very nice. In the perfect location, right next to the subway and an amazing neighborhood. Fairly affordable for the area. Cons: Landlord takes forever to respond to issues and usually when fixing things they do it the easy way instead of the right way. Advice to landlord: Be more responsive”

“Unit F8 Pros: Building itself has great bones and could be really beautiful if well-maintained. Location relative to transit is unbeatable. Some original architectural elements are intact, like built-ins, bathroom storage compartments, and arched doorways - make it feel special. Neighborhood is delightful. Some apartments are roomy and have lots of windows. Cons: The management is atrocious. Greedy, cheap, dishonest, and uncaring. Many elderly and disabled tenants are homebound and even more isolated when elevator would go out or malfunction (which happened too often). Hot water, and even water, has been known to go out with little warning or provision of repair timeline. Pests are an issue. Repairs take a long time to happen, and are done on the cheap. Landlords will also withhold security deposits if you don't leave the apartment in more pristine condition than you found it (even if there is no water in the building during move-out, making cleaning impossible). It's such a waste of a good building. Advice to landlord: Don't be a landlord if you're not prepared to take care of your building and your tenants. Get another job.”

“Pros: Beautiful old building with some original features. Cons: The landlord, Neera Raj, is not an honorable person. Letting conditions of building deteriorate. Elderly and disabled residents homebound for multiple months while management dragged their feet on necessary fixes to the elevator—which they only got started on after being fined by DOB. Lies about sending workers, pest control, etc. Lies about how market-rate units were destablized. Lies lies lies. Advice to landlord: Get back in touch with your humanity.”

“Pros: location, bedroom size Cons: roaches, shoddy repairs, owners couldn’t care less about tenants”

“Pros: Elevator, laundry in basement, great location Cons: Everything is very old but apartments have great bones. In dire need of renovations. Rents are high. Advice to landlord: For the amount of rent you charge you should take a look at the apartments themselves and do more than a fresh coat of paint between tenants.”

“Pros: -Great neighbors -Directly on top of subway -Live in super -Laundry in building Cons: -Illegally destabilized units -Illegal conversion from 2 bedroom into 3 bedroom with a wall splitting a window -Tenants association determined many repairs were done cheaply and repairs were still needed -Management will try to overcharge for many things -Landlords kept security of tenants for late rent payments that were not sent late Advice to landlord: Do not try and squeeze money out of your tenants and stop being cheap about necessary repairs.”

“Pros: Distance to the train, one of the supers is super sweet! Cons: Landlord mean, black mold shower, heat doesn’t work, elevator broken constantly, you can ONLY pay with checks, Advice to landlord: Be nicer to your renters”
