“Pros: Great area, quiet street, and the apartments are nice and updated Cons: Management and the super are not responsive at all. Will take days to respond to an email and it can take literal months to get something done right. At one point the front door to the apartment was jammed and there was no way to leave the apartment. The super just put tape on the lock so our apartment was wide open.”
— 317 EAST 74 STREET · Manhattan“Pros: Good price for neighborhood, owners seem to care about the building, pest control offered once a month, there is a cleaner for hallway spaces, packages aren’t ever stolen, appliances work great so far, unit looks well taken care of, close to subway stop at 72nd. Cons: There’s a mentally unstable neighbor on the 3rd floor who has yelling episodes most nights anywhere from 10pm to 6am in the morning. Found this out after moving in and the owner said they have been working to evict her since they bought the building 10 years ago. Doesn’t seem like she’s going anywhere but she is loud and when police are called they don’t do anything to help her. If you’re looking for a quiet building this isn’t it. It is an old building so heating pipes are a bit noisy and tap water is a bit weird but that’s to be expected. Advice to landlord: Disclose the disturbing tenant before renters lease”
