    Dirty, Unprofessional, Incompetent

    At first glance you think not bad. But as you look closer you realize the train wreck you’re stepping into, and then living here, complete utter regret and disappointment. If you like zero management communication, broken elevators, constant pipe bursts that damage everything, unprofessional maintenance methods, and lack of cleanliness then come to janky Katz property. Here you get water damage, mold, rudeness, construction at 12am, zero transparency in maintenance and management, loss of water for days, exposed electrical, open rooms full of miscellaneous construction materials, and the list continues if you are willing to overlook it all. But hey, you can see the lake..
