Do not rent an Apartment at 11 Grant Street in Cohoes, NY. I was approached by a friend who was a cousin of the home owner and offered an opportunity to look at a apartment at this address. The owner of the house called me several times and offered the apartment to me saying that his current tenant is moving out in April or May of 2016 because she was building a house and the owner wanted to know If I wanted to look at the apt. While his tenant was on vacation in Florida during early February. I looked at the apartment and I said I would take when the apt. Becomes available in the Spring when his current tenant moved out. I talked with the owner in his house for over an hour and several times on the telephone and we planned this move. I hired a moving company and started packing boxes as I live alone and it would take me a long time to pack everything up. So after three months of planning and packing and moving money around in anticipation of this move - I get a text message this week, that read (my daughter is taking he apartment, look elsewhere). He offered no explanation, no phone conversation to explain or an apology at all. He treated it like it never happened, and here I am all packed up ready to go with a moving company hanging. What a slap in the face. I am still amazed that I trusted this man and that it was o. K. for him to waste my time without even an apology. If you have the opportunity to look at this apartment in the future, I would definitely steer away from this owner, the property and the three daughters that control his life. I FEEL LIKE I WAS KICKED TO THE CURB LIKE GARBAGE - T. A. B. L.
