An friend of mine had big problems with a porter in a building she was living and working in so I would really warn against it.
Most of the porters were ok ( everyone had to sign in so they all soon clicked on!) but one guy started getting a bit over friendly and thought he was at liberty to just drop by her flat when he felt like it. When his advances were rebuffed he starting demanding payment and when she refused, the building management people somehow found out she was an escort.
It was pretty embarrassing as they called her to the office and they had found her on the Internet and printed out a page to show her and asked her to hand in her notice

I suppose you never know when people can turn on you and you don't want someone having that kind of leverage over you.
But there may be other people who have had different experiences so it is worth hearing what others have to say too. Good luck flat hunting x
