Meet Your Host
Hi, I'm Sadie! (She/Her)
Not an AI agent (that's at the bottom)! I was born and raised in Brooklyn. My roots are deeply aligned with culture, originality, expression, and community. I have helped to manage The Williamsburg Apartment for over 6 years and have come to absolutely love Williamsburg and hospitality. I am one of the first-floor roommates, so I'll be around if you need anything. I work from home most days and freelance as a writer and model on other days.
While I help with communications, you will be renting directly from the building's landlord, Dr. Konstantin Rubinov. All rental and security deposit payments will be paid and processed directly to the landlord.

| What is a month-to-month lease? | A month-to-month lease is a rental agreement with no fixed end date that automatically renews every month until either the tenant or the landlord gives proper notice to end it.
