Urban Brokerage

I wish I knew who really owned this building as I would file a major complaint about their management company. Urban Housing, now known as Urban Brokerage are by far and away the worst landlords I have ever encountered. And I’ve known some bad ones. 40 years of navajo white on every wall, painted over hair, tape and even fruit stickers. 3 different finishes of paint, gloss, flat, semi, etc. graffiti on every entrance in the building, no one answers the phone when you need a repair but they sure want their rent on time! Go ahead and leave a message, the only one who will return a call is the leasing agent obviously because the only thing they’re concerned with is making money. I have never seen more cockroaches in one building in my life, or anywhere for that matter! I would move but its the cheapest place I can afford, obviously you get less than what you pay for here.

In a city where the words «Landlord» and «Douchebag» are almost synonymous, this company really stands out, and I mean that in a positive way.
I love my apartment on Rodney Drive in Los Feliz, and any problem I’ve had has been resolved quickly (you might have to remind them on occasion).
It’s not their fault that the Tenant has to pay extra for Code Enforcement and other City Assessments, and my 1 BR has a great sense of style and a lovely paint job that’s more than just five layers of Navajo White or Swiss Coffee. If you can find space in one of their units, grab it– I’d remain until the day I die, but I needed more space so I had to pack up and head down the Trail of Tears.
I have a feeling I’ll regret it even more, once my kids move out and I’m a bachelor again, for their units go quickly, but I’d move back in a shot if they had a 3 BR.

I’m still a current tenant here, so will update later.
It was move in ready, the place was nice and the price was very affordable.
The maintenace takes a really long time and my blinds still havent been fixed. Been there since last May.
