★★★★★Jan 2025

Unit B10 Pros: Relatively quiet at all times and super warm and cozy during the winter months They don't actually care if you have a cat or a dog so long as you clean up after them. Several other tenants have cats and dogs Cons: DIRTY ROACH INFESTED (THEY'RE IN THE WALLS AND I'M NOT EXAGGERATING) Owner refuses to take responsibility for any issues in the building and only comes by when the DoB is doing an inspection Expensive for the space. Barely a 1BD and you're paying nearly $1,700/month The bathroom ceiling will leak at least twice a year and it'll take management at least a month to fix it. The toilet also breaks down every few months. Advice to landlord: LISTEN TO YOUR TENANTS INSTEAD OF REQUESTING RENT TO BE SENT BY THE 7TH OF THE MONTH AND THEN WAITING UNTIL THE END OF THE MONTH TO CASH CHECKS

Pros: Quiet neighborhood, nice neighbors. Cons: The landlord is very unresponsive, rent is overpriced, super attendants not so responsive either. Building is very old and needs consistent maintenance to upkeep cleanliness. Advice to landlord: Be more responsive to your tenants. Look after your tenants and stop overcharging for small apartments. There needs to be more cleaning and renovations done on the building to prevent rodents.

Pros: Rent was cheap at the time, it was close to my school. Cons: I had bedbugs off and on the entire time I lived here. The building owner did little to nothing to fix it. They would go to other nearby apartments after mine was sprayed and those units were never treated. They kept coming back. The super Eddie was rude and dismissive of the many issues I had with the place. Every few weeks I saw a new mattress in the trash when I lived there. He once got flustered with me in my own apartment in a confrontational fashion and accidentally broke a glass of mine and left apologizing. The front door of the building never locked. Advice to landlord: Treat your entire building for bed bugs because at this point I’m sure you haven’t still and they are still there. When a tenant has bed bugs it’s protocol to treat all units adjacent to that unit to prevent the bugs from retreating and spreading to other apartments and then back to the treated apartment when the chemicals ware off.

Pros: Rent stabilized unit(s) available, friendly neighbors and diverse demographic, newly renovated units*, spacious units available, beautiful quiet block but still close to shopping area, and public transportation. Cons: Building is right next to where garbage is dumped, so pests are rampant (roaches, centipedes, spiders, etc...). Old building also, so though certain units have newly renovated appliances, there are many structural problems with the building/apartment. Cracked walls that leak when it rains in the lobby and in many units, appliances that are new but improperly installed. Poor insulation along the bottoms of the walls and behind the radiator. Did I say cockroaches? Super named Eddie, is not very responsive at all. If there's an issue and you ask him to help, he either does a poor patchup job, or seldom knows what's going on. You'll ask him the status of a repair and he'll say "The repair guy was supposed to come and check that out. I'll find out where he is and call you back..." He never calls back. Advice to landlord: The building needs a full structural renovation. Patching it up only exposes other problems and cracks in the design.

Pros: There aren’t any. Cons: Landlord is unresponsive and unfair. Kept the security deposit when there wasn’t any need to. I would look elsewhere. Save your money. Be aware! Advice to landlord: Return security deposits as you’re supposed to when there aren’t any damages in the apartment.
