438 52ND ST OWNERS CORP · avg 3.3 ★★★★★ · New York City
“Pros: Very fair rent price for the size of the apartment. Close to transportation. The landlord is responsive and fair. Common areas are kept clean and the laundry room is never busy and everything works. Original floors are lovely and in good condition. Original tub is lovely and was reglazed before I moved in. Cons: There is a new super who is not as attentive as the old one. Trash piles up in the trash area. Some apartments have been gut renovated at some point and the walls are thinner than the original walls that were probably lathe. Can hear EVERYTHING from adjacent apartments and the neighbors are not neighborly. Not the safest street or section of the neighborhood. Hear gunshots at times.”
— 438 52 STREET · Brooklyn“Unit D1 Pros: The building was cleaned often, the super is GREAT and I never had any major issues while living here. It’s an old building so some pests and breakdown is to be expected, but when I brought issues up they were taken care of. Rent stabilized. Cons: Like I said, it’s an old building. The appliances are old and there were some pests, but nothing out of control. Advice to landlord: N/A”
— 438 52 STREET · Brooklyn“Pros: The super is very responsive and seems to care about the tenants. The garbage and recycling area is maintained well and kept tidy. Cons: Waterbugs are a big issue here, despite how many times the exterminator comes to spray the apartments and building, they keep re-appearing. Unfortunately, because the building is so old, the problem is deeper than a superficial fix. Advice to landlord: You might want to have the entire building evaluated for bug infestation.”
