MARSHALLECK , LUTHER A · avg 2.2 ★★★★★ · New York City
“Unit 4 Pros: Bed-Stuy is a vibe, neighborhood makes you feel very welcomed. I liked the sky light in the kitchen and the kitchen is nice. Cons: The owner is a slum lord. He does not take care of anything. We had no heat for the first 2 1/2 years of living there. He is very unresponsive. Never took care of the garbage. We had mice the entire time. We had a water bubble in one of the rooms and it was bought to the owners attitude MULTIPLE times and was never fixed for about 6-7 months. Very irresponsible landlord. Washer and dryer in the basement is DIRTY, its never been cleaned out. The light in the big bedroom never worked. We had to use lamps. Wasps nest outside of all 3 big windows in master bedroom. NO CLOSETS and no window in kitchen. When using kitchen it gets very hot due to no air circulation. Advice to landlord: Do better.”
— 465 KOSCIUSZKO STREET · Brooklyn“Pros: Was cheap when we moved in but the new rent is no longer cheap. Absolutely not worth the millions of problems in this place. Cons: 1. Landlord is irresponsible and full of lies. The building especially the basement is full of rats and he refuses to do anything about it because he's cheap. He even let a dead rat rot in our front yard for days, flies all around it. Yet he claim this building has no history of pests, just look at the countless violations in this building bro, if you're still thinking about living here with current $2600 listed rent you need to think again. 2. Once police came and took someone from the landlord's apartment and they refuse to explain. (Landlord lives in the building) 3. THEY OFTEN CUT HEAT IN WINTER or leave it on high at hot days just because they're not home. Are you not aware you're taking rent from multiple other people living in the building!? 4. We always get notes about Luther's unpaid bills on the door. In general unreliable person. If you meet him he would also keep talking nonsense to you. 5. Things in the apartment are falling apart. Super uneven floor that makes you dizzy. You can't find the landlord to fix broken things. 6. There was no cleaning before we move in. Absolutely filthy, we cleaned for a whole day to make it barely livable. In the following time the apartment also gets dusty easily, bad windows. The basement (where the laundry machines are) is also a disaster. 7. Loud neighbors in the front and in the back. There are always parties in this block and they can go on until 2am. 8. Landlords play dead after we moved out and ask for deposit. Advice to landlord: Be a decent human being and take responsibilities for the rent you charge from your tenants.”

— 465 KOSCIUSZKO STREET · Brooklyn“Unit 4 Pros: The neighborhood only Cons: Everything! Place has rodents. The owner likes to going into people’s apartment while they are on vacation. He hates when there is a camera out the door because then he can’t come in. The owner is always on something. He doesn’t respond when you need things fixed. He replies weeks or months after. He leaves trash everywhere and then says oh I have to clean this mess in front of you but then doesn’t clean up. Laundry machine never clean at all. Doesn’t clean up the snow when it snows. Always thinks that the neighbors are the problem. Electrical problems. Advice to landlord: Sell the property to someone who will actually take care of it.”
