“Unit 1R Pros: Good neighborhood and people on the block. Cons: Landlord is hostile. Threatens to evict you illegally with a lawyer for calling 311. The heat goes off constantly in the building. Lots of mold and the basement is a fire hazard. All the doors in the building are also not up to code and need to be replaced. Had a break-in and took months to get the door replaced. No smoke detectors in the building either and lots of pests because of the basement. Landlord also listed the apartment for cheaper and claimed my credit history was low so they had to up the rent. Never got a copy of my lease, either. HPD told tenants in the building a few months ago the rent is way too high for this building. Advice to landlord: Fix your open violations and quit lying when theres a paper trail. Bullying tenants will only make things worse for you. Your tenants are all talking to each other and agree you’re a slumlord.”
