177 CHRYSTIE STREET LLC · avg 2.8 ★★★★★ · New York City
“Pros: location is great, looks at trees if in a street-facing unit, good light, no rat issues Cons: management is not the best, there is a stoop that is occasionally occupied by people rolling a joint / passed out druggies, packages get stolen, rent is paid with checks Advice to landlord: be kinder to renters”
— 17 RIVINGTON STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Good location, nice natural light, good price for the space. Cons: Tons of trash and vagrants in the entryway. The bar downstairs does a horrible job cleaning the area and it feels dirty. There are mice throughout the building, and they will send exterminators to help, but it’s difficult when they are so prevalent. There are several squatters in the building as well it seems, as well as a contractor who works in the basement, which is a fire hazard. Advice to landlord: Work with Rays to keep the building clean. Do not rent out the basement to someone using heavy machinery.”
— 17 RIVINGTON STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Gotta love it Cons: filthy halls, no repairs Advice to landlord: do your job and fix things.”
— 17 RIVINGTON STREET · Manhattan“Unit 1A Pros: a lot of units are rent regulated and the location is convenient Cons: Landlord is completely unresponsive. Likely a lot of illegally deregulated units in the building; beware of signing a lease and check DHCR records if you do. A lot of deferred maintinence was started then left unfinished (drywall, piping, etc). Awful loud bar downstairs, patrons constantly drink on stoop, leave cigarette butts and puke, block tenants from entering/exiting. Patrons also yell/scream at all hours. Crowd control is poor. Bar blasts music at all hours even 6 AM in the morning sometimes; you can hear it on the 2nd floor. Landlord does nothing about them. Also building security is very poor - multiple squatters have taken up residence during my tenancy. Advice to landlord: Stop being an absentee landlord and follow the law. Stop lying about deregulated units or the legal rent.”
