“Pros: Really great finishes in my unit. Dark wood floors, new stone counters and a super updated bathroom Cons: Absolutely terrible slumlord management. Had to call 911 multiple times because bldg front door wouldn’t open. Went without heat for months. Rats in the trash room and could hear them in the walls Advice to landlord: Sell and let someone else manage this bldg”

— 131 ORCHARD STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Really nice finishes in my apartment and every unit has a view. Great location for subways. Cons: Management is terrible. We had no heat in January and they didn’t respond once. We had a rat infestation for months before they did anything. My stove has been broken, the person they hired to fix blatantly stated it needed to be thrown away. Building front door is broken 2 times a week Advice to landlord: Hire a property manager? If you already have one, fire them. Also spend some time reading the landlord laws.”

— 131 ORCHARD STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Jeanette from the leasing office is lovely. Good location and mostly respectful neighbors minus a few bad apples that spoil the bunch. Cons: They are completely unreachable and unreliable and do not care if things in their buildings are in need of repair. They simply ignore the issue. The ceiling in the foyer falls off and water leaks in every time it rains and they simply do nothing. Heat and hot water is sporadic. They are rude and condescending when you complain about things they are legally required to fix. Advice to landlord: Start caring about your buildings and your tenants. Do what you are required to by law.”
— 131 ORCHARD STREET · Manhattan“Pros: There are very few pros about this building. The only pro that comes to mind is its lower east side location. Cons: Unresponsive management - don’t expect to ever hear back from management, they don’t care about you, they just want your $$. There is no super for the building. There are rats in the trash in the building. Very loud neighbors. Advice to landlord: Get an in building super! RESPOND TO YOUR TENANTS!”
