“Unit 1L Pros: Carroll gardens is a great neighborhood and this is on a beautiful quiet block. Cons: The landlord is volatile, unresponsive, and is letting the building fall apart. Nothing is fixed right and the condition of the apartments and building are deteriorating rapidly. The landlord handles everything, no super. She hires inexperienced workers, tries to not pay them, and gives them fake names. We had a leak in the ceiling, someone came over to fix it and left a hole in our ceiling for over a week, then they patched it up, but the problem was not fixed so the leak continued and the ceiling started to sag and the next person she sent over just painted it. She didn't turn the heat on well into October and we had to call 311. Building inspectors once showed up and said they needed to get in contact with her and asked if I had her information. We were constantly getting overdue bills addressed to her and utility notices. The outdoor trash bins do not have covers, so there are lots of rats outside. Multiple neighbors complained about her and flagged that the roof of the building has structural problems. Advice to landlord: Sell the building before its condemned.”

“Pros: Love this neighborhood and the apartment was nice. Cons: The landlord is not all there. She is difficult, temperamental, and makes living there a nightmare when you have to deal with her. No one in the building likes her and she is quite dishonest.”

“Pros: The apartment is in okay shape and the neighborhood is nice Cons: Landlord is extremely unresponsive and volatile. Hires the cheapest workers and then rips them off. Doesn’t fix basic things.”

“Pros: Location, location, location Cons: Terrible landlord, I was new to the city so I was very nice and good in hopes for my deposit to be returned, everything by the book. This landlord stole my deposit, I have a court order for collecting it. The building had roaches, the electric for the whole building had been put under my unit. Advice to landlord: Sell the building to someone that can take care of it.”

“Pros: Nice, newly renovated units on a beautiful tree-lined street Cons: Was forced to leave the apartment at the end of my lease due to an ongoing roach infestation that the landlord refused to address. When I provided her with a hardship affidavit saying I could not afford rent due to Covid, she threatened to sue me. I didn’t have heat for two months, including while I was recovering from Covid. Landlord is currently being sued by tenants across multiple buildings. Advice to landlord: Pull it together, Marion.”
