Tenant Reviews for 5175 NE 2ND CT

Nice community and friendly staff, it's like a small town in the middle of the city. I had a 2 bedroom for $1600, good price for the area. It has lots of green area very convenient to walk my dog without going out of the community.

security allowed my motorcycle to be stolen, stripped for parts and set afire inside the complex in a vacant apartment after the battery was stolen twice before..br a/c units suck..multiple insect infestation..grass cut only every other month so I'm constantly wary of snakes while walking my dogs..place is dilapidated..gym and jacuzzi are closed indefinitely apparently..hours at the pool have been reduced from 9-9 to 11-6 and now you get kicked out and its locked down if it drizzles..not heavy rain or storm just drizzle that stopped before I got back to my apartment..wtf!!..its f'ng miami..and my sink and toilet were never secured to the floor or wall..

Horrible ! Unless you like sharing with half the Floridian wildlife ! Apartments are infested. With termites and roaches . Ac units are old and always breaking down , neighborhood is scary and dangerous ! Management are also going to rob you of your deposit so don't give them one ! You will never see it back ....

No se dejen engañar ellos dicen que él sistema de pago tuvo un error y luego te mandan a corte ybte hacen pagar el abogado , ahora adicional de mi renta me están quitando casi dos mío dólares .. los apartamentos tienen ratas , terminas, la cloaca se sube a las bañeras , cucarachas y una culebra entró a mi casa . Son unos estafadores y su manager FRAN me hizo firmar un papael para que saliera del problema en el que ellos me metieron por mandar la renta equivocada y me hundió más en el problema , me están robando . NO SE DEJEN ENGAÑAR

OMG where to begin. i got this place out of desperation because the spot i was originaly gonna get were a bunch of racist they do exist. they cancelled on me moving in at the last minute in bay harbour. so i had less than a week to move into an apt. here i come walking in. the perfect sucker for these slum lords at D Place. they show you a nice demo unit than you get something completely different. this was my first time and last time have ac units instead of central air. they don't cool the apt. and just make a lot of noise. along with the train going by in the back of the place, the ------ --- neighbors screaming at each other and the street cats that they never get rid of so they are roaming around meowing all night. i had read about the bugs and i didnt take the warning. my bathroom had lines of them by the hundreds walking across the walls. there is also a huge problem with cockroaches and dead worms on your floor. for a while when i would wake up in the morning there would be a geicko lizard on my stove. they are all over that place. termites eat away at the doors of the buildings. the staff always makes like you are hassling them when you go to call to complain. they are super slow to take care of you too. the neighbors dogs are a big problem too with the barking and them leaving big shits on the un cut grass and stairways in front of your stairs to the entrance. i once complained about this big pile of horse poop in front of my entrance and it took them 3 days to remove it. the hallways are cleaned once a week. always filthy with trash and dirt. if this reveiw can stop just one person from renting than i did my job. it was a year of pain. by far the worst rental i've ever rented. i was a perfect tenant never late paying my super overpriced rent $1750 2 bedroom apt. from the 1940's. the security staff was a real joke they let everybody and ther brother into the community. they use the most ------ service. the security guards look like dade county inmates. super unsafe place in the middle of the hood. at first i felt safe , but after people started showing up to my door unannounced that ended quickly. i painted some accent walls and when moving out i came to an agreement with the GM his name is Abid. i told him all the hard time that had there as a renter. we agreed that they would paint the walls back white for me free of charge. i asked him to send me an email confirming that cuz i could smell the shadiness of that office, he told me "for what?" they were on 6 accent walls not the whole place. i also paid $160 to a profeesional cleaning lady to make the place shine. i regret doing that now. when the other manager Frank came through to inspect he said he couldnt beleive how clean it was. it was definitely nicer than when i got it. of course they shorted me $350 on the security deposit return. then when you complain they make you write a letter to their office which goes unread. when you call they just blow smoke up your --- saying we haven't heard anything yet. if you feel i am untruthful just contact me and i will send you pics of ants, cockroaches, worms, dirty yard, dirty hallway, broken down cabinets and more/ ---- You Design Place. i hope you get shut down and that staff goes to jail for fraud.

Some of the neighbors could be loud but the apartment is big and the rent is good. I am at work in 8 minutes - can't beat that.

My Son lived there for a year, was so happy the day he moved out!! The units are NOTHING like the one the sales reps show you. Alot of bug issues, and everytime I visited the police were hauling someone away in handcuffs. They still owe my son money from the security deposit, but after numerous letters and phone calls we are chalking it up as a loss. Would not recommend this place to anyone!!!

If I could give this place 0 stars, I would! When I first moved in, I was shown an apartment which was really spacious and have nice counter tops but had an old, outdated bathroom with rust, limescale, and mold all over it. I was desperate to move and was told my bathroom would be fixed within the first week and that was the only apartment so I took it and tried to clean it as best as I could. No one came the first week for the bathroom so I called management and they told me to send an email and they'll send someone. I waited and nothing so I visited the office and signed papers and was told I'd be put on a list, months later still no one came to see my bathroom. Eventually, other things started to fall apart. The drains started backing up, cabinet doors fell, the doors to the front and back door would become more and more difficult to close. When it rained it leaked through my walls. It took eight months and a call to my lawyer to get them to come into my apartment. The work that was done was mediocre and was like putting lipstick onto a pig. I always see maintenance workers working on other projects but never coming into my home to fix issues with the apartment. Construction starts at 9am where it sounds like a highway next to my apartment due to paving and bulldozing. Management does not care, they will still charge a late fee even though you've expressed your many concerns and may feel the need to call your own handy man to finish the job correctly. Over-priced rent for what used to be the projects.

I have no idea where to start. This apt. complex has the capability of being great. The location is pretty prime and its cute ( on the onside). I moved to maimi for for Art so this location was perfect I only needed 6 months. I signed a year with an understanding if I found someone to renew the lease I was able to move or sickness in family. It 1st started when I began to have a VERY bad cockroach problem 5 days into moving in. Many trips to the office begging for new doors because my back door had holes in and a new door sweep for the front door and to secure the air unit as their are openings. The problem seemed to dissipate after 3.5 months. After all this the women seemed very upset at me for continuing to complain ( i mean i guess she loves to live in filth and insects). Just as I thought everything was okay - ( still having to sweep about 5 times a day). I arrived home one evening to about 1000 carpenter ants outside my door. The next day I showed photos and explained this and wanted out of my lease. It was just one thing after another -bad. Under Florida state law SECTION 83.51 (2)a, F.S1.?leg.state.fl.us/statutes... READ IT trust me more than one law is being broken - they told me I had no right to break a lease WELL FOLKS if i did my research I would of been out 7 months ago. It took over a week to get these ants removed. I did withhold my rent until the 5th, because I was tired of living with insects They added a late fee. hahaha. The women and I ended up not being friends, I guess she was just mean and rude and a slumlord. After the incident things go really bad. Slowly thing went missing outside my back area I asked the office and Abid said they did not remove it the bucket alone was 40 bucks/ I was very upset I mean just ask me to remove it. It has been there for 4 months. This women would drive by the back of my place at least 3 time a day my neighbors and I would laugh as we sip coffee it was creepy. My air stopped around Jan with constant complicates she got worse but I go my air working I guess.Still had roaches and ants ( normal if Florida they said). I wanted out bad. I did have an argument with her and realized you can not speak to ignorance. I found a roommate to move in with me the last 5 months since I decided to just move on and at least split rent , since i was not really living there it was causing me to go mad. She seemed to really be upset I found a loophole. I did not want to give them anymore of my money so I parked on the street with occasionally moving things out and groceries I h ad to drive in. She actually told the security NOT to let me in during the day. I had them say no once haha I AM ON THE LEASE. I was getting tow stickers on my car during the day. seriously. harassment just never stopped; yet i was all legal in a &^$#^ way. 2 weeks later we get a letter on the door (she hand delivered herself ) about how we need to remove our patio /lawn table and chairs- supposedly the entire 400 units received one. Again 7 months into living there. 3hrs later she removed my items and my clothes line haha; really this was july 10th- I go away for about 3 weeks go by and when I get back areas still have futons;large picnic tables;umbrellas;kids playhouses;rolling racks tables with more than 2 chairs swing sets; rolling racks with cloths on them ; and so forth and your telling me I am not being harassed. Ow wait. I had enough the dryer broke and i needed to dry my clothes I saw everyone's still doing it so I did. I placed some clothes on my back yard tree/ very hidden. She drove by twice ( i have a photo of her car). I left again 2 days later for a week. My roomie calls and said there is a note under our door about clothes haha. Last week I borrowed my grams car ( it bigger) to move my things out and an honest mistake when I went into get a pass I had a 1/17 tag paper but it was for something else or something i guess. They still gave me the pass though as we both thought it was registration; 3 days later I woke up to a police ticket for an expired tag in MY GATED NEIGHBORHOOD. after 4 hrs of confusion with police and security. I finally got an answer. The only way a ticket can be written within gates is if management calls to complain and allows the police write a ticket. I thought maybe someone took it off my car b/c 2 days prior security came to my door at 3am saying the car alarm was going off. Weird its a nice car new and this never had happened. anyway. maybe a warming, or hey we see your tag is expired- I mean they know its not may car. anyway see photos. They know the people that live here do not have time nor money to spend court fees and lawyers. This place should be shut down and everyone should be fined its dirty !

I've been living in design place for about two years now because I really do like the central location and it is a pretty quiet neighborhood, but I must say that the grounds are not kept up. People leave trash everywhere, including the staff, for weeks at a time and do not bother to pick it up even after I've filed multiple complaints. People here have pit bulls running around and two dogs killed my cat along with three other cats, which were not picked up until the next day. The security hardly asks questions when someone is entering which makes me very nervous about the safety of the neighborhood (really anyone can enter without being stopped) and the apartments are old and run down. My doors are both rotting and whenever I tell the staff they paint over it and tell me it is fixed! I've had termites in my kitchen cabinets, my bathrooms and all over the floor and the staff does nothing to fix it (also because of the rotting doors, huge roaches enter my apartment all the time) also I will mention that they will not let me break my lease even though I recently bought a home! They're keeping all my deposits whether or not I stay in here. I do not recommend this place, even if it does have a central location
