Complaint Review: lakeside apartments lisle il exposed - Lisle IL

Hello, We made an appointment to look at a 2 bedroom apartment at Lakeside Apartments in Lisle, IL. It took two days for someone to get back to my girl friend. Every time we called, we got a voice mail asking us to email them. We don’t know there email! We were getting ready to go look somewhere else.

We got a call from someone from there office, a crabby [censored] that said, Ya when is a good time that you can come and see what we have open. So we made an appointment for the next day. When we got there, it did not feel right. Most people who want to rent to someone would show some emotion. Not even a smile. Maybe she was having a bad day.

So she took us to a place that looked great. Really nice, everything looked new. My mouth was open. She let us walk through the whole place. Everything from top to bottom looks great. We have a dog and they take dogs. This is going great I said to myself. So we took a rental agreement to look over and we told them we would get back to them this week.

Well when I got out of there, I still felt something was too good to be true. It was, I looked on Google, and Yelp, complaints board and the BBB. I told my girlfriend lets go back and talk to someone who lives in this apartment complex. We did. All we had to do is drive to the place where everyone workouts at and it has some kind of party’s upstairs.

Well it does not look like what is on the web page. The room was dirty and I saw the business office they said they have. Its two computers and a desk. Not at all what was on the webpage. I can see my girlfriend was getting upset, so I said forget it. Let’s just leave. There were some people in there, so we asked how it is living here.

They told us there lease is up in 2 weeks and can’t wait to leave. They also told us they just got new management called Hayman Company and that they are worse than the first company. So I asked how there apartment was, and was it as nice as the one we saw? They smiled and said would you like to see where we stay? So we said yes. When I walked in this place, the hallways looked dirty and smelled.

When I walked in there apartment, I was ready to cry. I don’t know how anyone can live in that place. What a big difference from the one I was shown, but that’s what they do. Show you what you want to see and tell you what you want to hear. Until you find out the hard way. I feel bad for them. They seemed like very nice people.

So for anyone looking for an apartment, pass this one up. We then went to Green Trails. They are very nice, and the workout room looks like a real gym. I don’t have to have a gym membership any more. This place has it all. The rooms were great, the staff was even better.

Great swimming pool and the kitchen was so beautiful. Everything was new. I knew I found my new home for my family. The staff said this one is open if you like it. We signed a lease that day. I told my girlfriend that God was looking out for us. She is also 3 months pregnant.
