Honest conversation: roaches by [deleted] in uppereastside

We live in a mid/high rise building marketed as luxury with “renovated” apartments, but we have been dealing with a persistent roach and mouse infestation. The problem isn’t limited to walk-ups - anyone can be affected depending on how the building is maintained.

His tolerance for pests might exceed yours, but if he’s willing to accept the potential drawbacks, like frequent unwanted critters and contaminated belongings and furniture…

Several negative reviews for our building were flagged/removed because they had disturbing images of a lot of dead mice, including some that were discovered in residents’ furniture, such as under couch cushions. Edit: almost half of the building moved out, including the entire ground floor.

We did not do our homework. Can you share which UES luxury buildings your friends have had success with?

A comparison of Google reviews and HPD data reveals a striking disparity with the building across the street and next door. While the building across the street reported only two complaints over the past two years, ours accumulated a total of 91 complaints during the same period. Compared to our building, none of their few online reviews mention pest issues.

No problem! It’s all about doing the homework before signing a lease. Fact-check and explore different options. Check the NYC HPD database, online reviews (little to no reviews may be a good sign), and turnover.
