77 Park Avenue Apartments

from management -They raised our rent dramatically after the first year during covid. -There’s constant parties and loud music from the predominately mid-20s demo that lives here. -There wasn’t one week we lived here in over a two+ year period where at least one elevator wasn’t down Simply put, don’t live here. It’s not worth it.

ideal. THE BAD - The heat is weak, so expect your apartment to be ice cold in the winter time. Pests come and go in this building so you will likely find one in your apartment during your time here. Be pro-active and buy yourself the protection you need with traps and UV noisemakers before pests make their way in. THE AWFUL/DEAL BREAKER - One-Year Leases, paired with Unreasonable Rent Renewal Prices. Our scenario is that started our lease here in March 2021 for a 2 bedroom 2.5 bathroom apartment. We tried to sign a multiyear lease, but management "never does multiyear leases" to obviously try to constantly raise your rent and make it difficult for you to live here. The leasing office at 77 Park Ave alleviated our concerns when we signed our lease by stating that My Equity has a team that will "work with you" on your lease renewals. One year later (in January 2022), we look at our lease renewal and OUR MONTHLY RENT INCREASED BY 39%, or $1,400, DUE TO MARKET CONDITIONS! When we tried to negotiate it down, we got $93 (or 2% off of a 39% increase) which was essentially a spit in the face. I asked dozens of people about a Year-over-Year rent increase to this magnitude, and nobody was able to even communicate to me a rent increase that they experienced in their lifetime of over 5%. And yes, I will repeat, our OUR MONTHLY RENT INCREASED BY 39%. We will be leaving and are absolutely disgusted at how My Equity managed the lease renewal/negotiation process.

un-level floors throughout the building. Huge gaps between the door and the floor, some rooms have huge tilts and leans in them, etc. 4. Management can be terrible to deal with. They are slow to respond and disregard many queries. 5. A roof caved in on the top floor and they didn’t tell anyone, we found out from the tenant. So who knows what else they’re hiding.

your time and money.
