First off, the neighborhood is lovely. Public transit is poor compared to most of NYC but there’s a bus a block away that can take you to the E F M R 7 trains easily. We had a lot of plumbing issues in the residence. We woke up one morning to sewage in the basement. We had to throw a few of our things away and the problem was only fixed after weeks. The basement was immediately cleaned but we were told it happened because of rain. It did rain the night before but it was just a standard thunderstorm, not something that should overwhelm the plumbing.
