Pros: - Generally quick to respond to repairs, etc - Great location - Common areas clean - Can keep small pets Cons: - Some bugs (though there is a semiweekly exterminator who will stop by if you sign up) - On rare occasion can be delay for repairs - No dishwasher Advice to landlord: Please don’t raise the rent much higher! I know it’s hard to do much about bugs, but it would be great if the semiweekly exterminator weren’t necessary.

Pros: Across from a school so very quiet at night, and a wonderful neighborhood. The studio I was in was massive and originally a fair price. Cons: Management company is shady. 6 months into my first year they tried to increase my rent by the 2-bedroom rate for a capital improvement (new elevator which was installed months before I signed), even though I was in a studio. I fought it and won. Then low and behold when I renewed my lease the increase was the exact cost for the capital improvement. They lost a check I mailed them so I sent a new one and I had to pay the stop payment fee for the lost check. They then tried to cash both checks and when the ‘lost’ failed they attempted to charge me a no good check fee. Pest control used to come at approximately 6pm once a month which was wonderful as a working professional. This was switched to midday without notice so I went almost a year without pest control. I moved out because they attempted to raise my rent about $400. I signed the non-renewal instead. The week I moved out they sent me a “corrected” lease to sign with a $50 increase. I guess someone in the office flagged it as illegal for a rent-stabilized apartment. Advice to landlord: Stop trying to charge Manhattan prices for outdated apartments in Sunnyside.
