ADDITIONAL COMMENTS (1)
[02-May-2023] This landlord owns the bar beneath the apartments and has very little respect for the tenants. He put a clause in the lease that the volume from the bar could not exceed a certain level, but after 9 months of living there, he suddenly allowed the volume to go up much higher than the agreed upon limit, to the point where my apartment was shaking from the sound.

I called him about the noise twice a week for 8 weeks with no response. I finally had to threaten to withhold rent before he would even return my call.

When he did, he made it clear he did not care about my discomfort with the volume and wanted me to leave. Even though there was already no chance of me staying, he then increased my rent by $500/month (or 20%).

My doorbell was broken for 6 months. He sent one electrician who couldn't fix it and gave up. I had to hire a different electrician myself.

He deducted from my security deposit entirely normal wear and tear on the apartment that I have never had to pay for in previous apartments, like painting over a very small hole for a single nail where I hung up artwork.

I would never rent from this landlord again, and I could not recommend anyone living in this building in good faith.
