RUN FAR AWAY. SLUMLORD

Posted 3 years ago

410 Knickerbocker Avenue Co Lp managing agent: Elizer Spira landlord: Aaron Stavisky the stavisky's also own: Ogden Cap Properties (note all the 1 star reviews), Ador Housing and Development LLC Moved into a newly renovated apartment that had some work still needed. Management promised it would be ready for our move in and realtor actually pushed us to move in 15 days earlier than we really wanted to (veronique perrin...also stay away) When we moved in the apartment had the following issues: no heat no hot water no cooking gas no running water in shower fridge didn't work all appliances, doors and cabinets covered in plastic wrap and sawdust washer/ dryer unusable buzzer doesn't ring or open door AC promised by realtor does not exist mirror in bathroom is cracked painting on inside of closet incomplete We didn't get heat/hot water/cooking gas for 5.5 months (nobody else lived in building). During this period they ( mostly verbally) assured us that we would be getting it when they responded and agreed to give us several months of free rent. The day after heat/hot water was restored, he went against his previous word and tried to demand the entire rent balance for the period including the cost of a plug in burner and plug in heater management provided us with, which also had escalated our electric bill 4x higher than usual. We offered management a partial payment, which they accepted (cashed the check!!!!) and then they went behind our back and tried to file for eviction. Hired a lawyer and did not pay rent for the remainder. BUT it was a nightmare since we had to go to court.
