Reply to comment by rudeprimadonna in Experiences with Jasco Management? by Js2337

Thank you for this! Curious what you mean by having more of a problem with the building?

To keep it short we had a lot of pest control issues which is normal in any big building, so I can’t fault it but the way management handled it was frustrating. I just have really rowdy neighbors, a disgusting laundry room, and construction below my unit that went on for 6 months. One positive that came out is I know what to look out for next time I’m looking at apartments. I was in a rush to move last year so thats why I applied. You live and you learn!

Makes sense. Thank you! It’s honestly hard to tell whether or not Jasco might even be an improvement. We’ve had rodents and flooding, have a broken mailbox, our buzzer is busted/not repairable (landlord told me to buy a wireless doorbell). The apartment itself is also really ugly (I was also in a rush to move). Honestly I’m real torn. I pay dirt cheap rent and love my neighborhood (live in the heights), but it’s a pain to get to and from the city (which I do all the time!).

Appreciate your honest take on it!

Moving all around is tough! But I believe it would be so great in the long run to not deal with constant issue after issue—though it’s a gamble overall to find out whether an apartment is good or not, Jasco has a reputation for being…the worst. Even exterminators have said their buildings are terrible and gross!

I live in the Heights and am near Hoboken so I walk to the Congress St light rail to get to the path. Not a bad commute at all, plus there’s bus stops around. Maybe look around the Central Ave/Palisade Ave area?
