Apartment Review for 117 W. Saratoga - Baltimore, MD

I've never encountered a place with such neglect and lack of response to issues concerning a property and its tenants. There are 4 units 2 of which are already leased/occupied and both have filed for "rent escrow". That means conditions are so bad that tenants refuse to pay rent until issues with the building have been addressed. The sewage pipe was been leaking to the front door entrance for almost a week before someone, who does not live in the state, responded. By the way, there is currently a whole in the wall at the entrance is torn out as a result of the work done to repair the sewage waterfall So if you take a site tour today, you will see the BIG WHOLE greeting you at the door. The community dryer is broken ad no one has responded to fix it. Barely hot water in units, unsafe lock-door at entrance i.e. (sometimes it works & sometimes it doesn’t). The "emergency contact" has been notified but does not respond unless she is threatened. The actual owner leaves the country often and is completely unreachable by phone or e-mail. There is no one to handle tenant needs should major or minor issues become a factor. This is not what I signed up for and is totally disrespectful. DON’T RENT OR YOU WILL REGRET IT…CAN’T WAIT TO GET TO COURT
