I submitted my documents yesterday. They did not email me back saying they received it. Should I ask them to confirm?
Did you submit by post office or email?
I submitted mine by post office because I don't trust that my personal information will be transmitted through regular unencrypted email and then available forever. I did have a tracking number and it shows that the office received it. What I did was reply to the essex email with a small message that I had sent my documents and included the tracking number. There was no response, not that I was expecting any.

I submitted through email. That was smart, I didn't even think of that. I guess it's normal not to receive a response?

I’ve gone through like 10 lotteries and it’s common to not receive a response. I don’t know why that is. So far, I’ve won two lotteries and remember them both being unresponsive up until the “come to our office to sign papers for HPD”
And yeah, with all this identity theft going on today, I really don’t feel comfortable transmitting a copy of my social security card, drivers license, and banking information. Are they kidding? Maybe I’m a little more paranoid since I am a cybersecurity engineer

Ok, cool. Yes, I'm usually cautious and hesitant as well but I want this apartment so bad I'm willing to risk that I guess? It's great that you have knowledge about cybersecurity and was able to send your documents in the safest way possible. I think a lot of people like me are unaware of the dangers of the internet.
I emailed docs back in August and haven't followed up yet because of what others have said... are you thinking about asking where they are in the process?
On Monday I asked for an update, and I just received a response: "Your household appears eligible, but was placed on the waiting list. We are currently processing lower log numbers."
Yes it is 24/7 doorman service.
I moved in this week,it is one bed on 13 fl, facing N/E and it is very noisy, Williamsburg bridge is killing us,
we do have a very beautiful view but I will trade less noise for the view.
I am very grateful for this unit but to tell you the truth I wish if I know this before.
All staff is very good and very helpful. The storage is bit problem it is only 2 on small size closets no linen or pantry cabinets. Washer and drier are in the hallway I do not see any wet hose in that closet I am wondering how much of the moist especially from the drier it will and for now the bathroom went is not working.
We are 130% and rent is not that cheap, not quiet sure for the electricity charge, they do not have individual electricity meters, for now we are not paying electricity until they get approved from I believe Direct energy. They will calculate how much each unit will be charged!
How much I understand only gas and electricity for the A/C and lights we should pay, but now I am wondering how they will do that when is heat/AC in one box. Also they said one when is done calculation electricity bill will be automatically added to the rent bill.
If we have to pay all year around for heat and a/c that would add a lot on already high rent.
I will call again to ask for better explanation.
Love my new noisy and vibrant neighborhood, a lot of stores is around to shop.
