“Unit 25 Pros: The building has retained some longtime residents and was fairly clean and well cared for. An exterminator came around the building weekly to spray and the super was responsive and capable. Cons: Central “courtyard” where they housed the dumpsters was loud in the afternoons when tenants let their children and dogs run around and bark/yell. On apartment turnover, after discussing how the owner wanted the apartment left, they tried to keep $800 of the security deposit even though all holes in walls were patched and sanded and the place was broom clean and kitchen and bath were both spotless.”

Cons: Some neighbors don’t allow the monthly pest control in, so that can be difficult. If only neighbor has a mouse, but there isn’t enforcement about letting pest control in, that can cause the problem to never be truly solved.”

Cons: It only has optimum and the internet doesnt work at all, there was a package thief problem for a while, steam heat was insanely hot in the winter Advice to landlord: Install verizon fios and have a more secure package area.”
