Pros: The location is convenient - walking distance to Forest Hills and Austin Street. Zoned schools are above average. Neighbors who have been here 10+ years are friendly. Cons: The building has one super who is unable to sufficiently address all apartment concerns in a timely manner. He does what he can but a property this large needs more than one super. Maintenance requests take 30-60+ days to be addressed or resolved, it’s ridiculous. You can’t get in contact with management - their communication is HORRIBLE and nonexistent. There’s lead in the doors/property - management is extremely cheap and won’t fix HPD violations. Inconsiderate neighbors allowing their children to make noise after 11:00pm, tenants smoking in the hallways. Neighbors throwing garbage outside of trash room and leaving open bags of trash on steps. The property has changed/declined within the past 18 months due to new tenants. Advice to landlord: Perkins can’t maintain all apartments alone he needs help. Address residents concerns and maintenance requests shouldn’t take over a week to address/fix. Vet tenants better as they’re making living miserable for others. Lastly, there needs to be better communication with management and tenants.

Pros: Great super, nice neighbors and a pretty courtyard. Cons: Rare mouse issue, quickly fixed by super and pest control. Has not been a problem since. Actual owners are total flakes, and never respond to a single message without being prodded 300 times. Advice to landlord: Be a little more attentive of tenants please

Pros: Super is a good guy but that’s about it Cons: They don’t have the money to pay for the necessary resources to maintain this building. They are cheap. They pay one superintendent to manage all four building. He does his best but there’s no way he can manage 100+ apartments. It took a year to get a working microwave. The washer/dryer has been out for almost six months. There are mice and roaches in and around the building. The trash system is unhealthy and disgusting. It’s like the bare minimum is the bar for NYC landlords. Advice to landlord: Pick up the phone or email back. It’s so disheartening and disrespectful especially when kids are involved.

Pros: The Super stays on top of the building maintenance. No one steals packages from mail area. Cons: No luxury amenities. No storage, no parking, etc. what they do have is done well enough. Advice to landlord: Make the side of the property a parking area.
