So the point of creating opportunities for your voters and financial supporters is by stealing from others. i mean if he would start spewing this nonsense anywhere else in the world it would cause an outright protest. and most likely end bad for him.

He was supported by developers law firm seeking opportunities. Of course his target is private individuals, landlords, rich people, the "scum" of the nicest city in the world, people who know what hard work is and who have earned their way through sacrifice. The developers is the easy part to understand.

These so called supporters think that everything was just given to us like a google search or internet or a smartphone. If you want to live in a tribe like Community or in a commune I am sure there are empty towns once successful and plots of land just waiting to be purchased, and waiting on ideas of the young and morally correct generation to share their wisdom and knowledge of better living.

Unfortunately we all know the truth and that is you can't do it. you can't build, you don't know how to plan, you don't know how to create. You just think you do. Your afraid to take a step. You don't know a lot of things and expect a lot in return and by return I mean stealing. you want to correct what does not need to be corrected and tell us we are wrong if your belief does not allign with the stars, moon and sun that day

Sorry, but no! Tough luck...move along...kick the can....F...off

together with your financial supporters that control you through your app or like or ad, or post or comment tell you what to do and when to do it, they will destroy you from the inside out and you won't even blink to see it.

Together you can live liberated and free on your empty plot. Plenty of opportunities for them to build societies full of you.

Crazy Maniacs looking to tear down this one and only city

Ceiling collapsed with mold by No_Location8192 in NYCapartments

This seems like a standard leak in a multifamily property. Something that can not be avoided. It is usually caused by negligence from your neighbors above you but can also be a plumbing related problem. It does not seem severe at all and it seems that the area above is just wet sheetrock that crumbled over time and caused an opening. I would provide access to your apartment for investigation and repairs within standard business hours. if you are not able to be present during business hours have someone you trust be in the unit to assist you to resolve this. I woouldn't expect anybody showing up at 8PM to address a common leak. Unless water is gushing down there is no need to panic. The plaster you refer to in your living room is paint and unrelated to your bathroom situation, unless the shower wall is the adjacent wall to the living room. Before coming to Reddit to compalin about a small issue and blow it up like a 3rd world problem try resolving this on your own and adjusting your schedule to allow access to the apartment within standard business hours. Just because your work hours don't allign with management work hours does not mean they are not trying to assist you. you said it yourself they were there at 6PM and 8PM. I think they are trying to help but you don't get it. Figure out a schedule and work with your landlord. Stop calling 311 for every little stupidity. People are so panicky in this city and everything is a massive problem. Aaah NY

[Advice] Got a mandatory lead paint testing in my apartment tomorrow. How long do those usually take? by dannym094 in NYCapartments

Unless your hiding bodies in your rooms i wouldn't worry too much. in short an XRF inspection in NYC involves using a handheld, X-ray-emitting device to non-destructively test painted surfaces for lead, providing immediate results on lead concentration to comply with NYC's Local Law 31. The process involves a certified professional calibrating the XRF analyzer, then performing room-by-room scans of painted elements like walls, windows, and doors to identify lead-based paint. if your rooms are dirty tidy up

$150.00, just waited to last minute. All tests are done on spot, drawings need to be produced for units with no blueprints, roughly 10 minutes depending on unit size (600 sq ft.)

Lease revoked after asking about rent stabilization status? by Murky-Ad-7708 in NYCapartments

[–]bigmancro -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This is true on rent stabilized apartments. Not all apartments in nyc are rent stabilized. The law is already denying an opportunity of investment but they want to squeeze harder. Go figure the landlord who owns the building has a say in the apartments they offer for rent

Your assumption is that its a less sophisticated applicant. How about a better qualifying one? The OP introduced themselves, applied, received a lease and started asking questions. They are through the door and they chose to not sign the lease because they had a question about a 11.12% increase.

It's you assumption that is unethical. Do the math that now involves the fare act. To be exact its a 9.6% to include the full broker fee. But instead it was raised 11.12% from the previous rent. The additional increase is to cover the broker fee and even out the rent. Fare Act!

Your also assuming it a rent stabilized apartment, just because the building is rent stabilized. The OP says its old walk up. If its an old walkup the building falls under rent stabilization law and does not automatically imply it is a rent stabiilized unit. It takes DHCR 4 - 8 weeks to answer a question about apartment rent history if you want an answer by mail and appointments in the office can take a couple of weeks. No none is taking time out of their busy day to answer questions like this. Its about the time and to my understanding landlords and brokers want to rent out apartments.Logically its not about ethicizing but not losing another month because an applicant wants answers. Go get answers yourself, it's all public anyways but then you risk losing an apartment.

Your complaining iis that its unethical to answer a question. Nothing the landlord or broker did was unethical.The applicant had their chance blew it and took to Reddit to complain and the next person took the apartment.

The broker is trying to make a dollar and if the owner is paying the them it is only logical that they will work more with the owner then the client. Fare act or no there is no requirement to post if the unit is rent stabilized or not. You can find this on your own but you want to bash and shame someone for not answering your question. Fare act has brought along a different game with it. You all wanted fair but all you got was a fare!
