“Unit 5R Pros: Great proximity to the J/Z/M, as well as restaurants, bars, amenities. Rent-stabilization is critical, online NBM portal is easy to use. Cons: Broadway is always difficult to live on due to noise/mess. The elevator stopped working for almost 3 months, compost is not a possibility when the garbage rooms can fester. Slow response to issues in the units, eventual help with mice but very delayed. Heat very poor in rooms. Advice to landlord: Would hope to gather quicker & more effective responses when issues arise.”
— 343 BROADWAY · Brooklyn“Pros: Prime location in South Williamsburg High ceilings Minor noise (considering you’re next to the train) No pest issues Cons: The apartment is literally in front of the JMZ train (but back units are quieter)”
— 343 BROADWAY · Brooklyn“Pros: Well maintained by staff, waste management excellent Cons: Management was not responsive. Elevator constantly broke. Raised rent by $1800 after my lease was up. Had to move.”
— 343 BROADWAY · Brooklyn“Pros: Sort of new building with elevator, no issues with pests. Garbage area on each floor and they empty it once a week. Cons: Management is inflexible, doesn’t respond on weekends and you have to reach out multiple times to get what you need from them. We couldn’t find a new roommate for months because of covid and they were not flexible with rent. Apartment was dirty when we moved in and they never came to clean it. Located near a few bars on busy street with the train nearby so there’s a bit of noise. Water pressure is fine but could be better. Advice to landlord: Respect your tenets and actually try to help them when they need it. Be more flexible with rent during this economic crisis.”
— 343 BROADWAY · Brooklyn“Pros: It is newish Cons: No heat/insulation, Floods every winter, Mgmt never responds, Mgmt has no idea whats going on in any capacity, Even in emergency (ie: fire) they won’t answer all of fri-sun and then you’d have to email them several times everyday to get a response a week later. Advice to landlord: Hire at least one competent worker. No one knows what’s ever going on in any capacity, literally. I dealt with it for over 10yrs.”
