“Pros: location was ok Cons: landlord tried to overcharge (ILLEGALLY) when moving out. constant pests despite exterminator Advice to landlord: stop being a money-hungry turd”
— 1381 ST JOHNS PLACE · Brooklyn“Pros: Both Ben and the property manager Hagar were pleasant, and they genuinely tried to help me when I encountered issues in the building. Cons: The building is not well-maintained. The hallways are falling apart, which made me worry about the building's infrastructure. The people who live inside do not value the property or their neighbors. There's constant fighting and yelling in the hallways, trash strewn across the steps, and a general lack of consideration for the space. There is a major roach infestation in the building; in fact, one morning around 3am I used the bathroom and, as I was washing my hands and staring into the mirror, a roach fall out of the ceiling vent behind me. It was a very difficult year for me. Advice to landlord: You will never attract people who will take care of your property if you continue to let it go uncared for.”
— 1381 ST JOHNS PLACE · Brooklyn“Pros: Neighbors in the building were friendly, as was the super (Bruce) Cons: COCKROACH PROBLEM, PIPE PROBLEM. We had multiple leaks in our one year in this building, one of which resulted in sewage spilling into the bathroom for days. The owner and his assistant did not respond for almost a week about this incident. There were cockroaches despite the monthly exterminator, and BIG ones. When we moved out, the landlord withheld our security deposit and tried to harass us into paying a “cleaning fee” despite having left the place broom-clean.”
