No not ever rent from these criminals. The complaints and situations and issues are too vast to cover here but I will mention that these people are slumlords. All they care about is taking your money--they do not take care of repairs and you will go months in the freezing cold and months in over 100 degree heat. This building has been in need of serious remodeling for years and I'm pretty sure this apt building is unsafe to live in due to asbestos, lead, mold, bad water, etc. Living here will make you depressed because it's environmentally unhealthy and the dilapidated building will bring you down, not to mention dealing with management and feeling unsafe all the time. They hire people that are off the streets to work for them. The building is not secure. I never felt safe leaving my apartment. They lose rent constantly and try to make you repay it. They make you pay in cashiers check and then lose them. They come in your apartment when you aren't there. You will not get your deposit back. Homeless people live in the vacant apartments (to which there are many). When/if they do repairs your water will be off for days. Larry and Susan are both bullies and will fight you on everything. They let sketchy people ive there---they absolutely do not care about what sort of people live there which causes a lot of issues. We found human feces in the hallway before. They laundry facilities are disgusting and don't work ever. The building is literally falling apart which is unfortunate because this building used to be so beautiful. We used to live here in the "golden ages" before Larry and Susan took over and the disintegration was immediate. Please, please, please do yourself a favor and do not rent here. You'll regret it, it'll be a waste of your money, and you'll want to leave pretty soon after seeing all of the above for yourself. I rented from spring 2008 through fall 2014. ...

The management is a crock. The maintenance is laughable. The "operations manager" consistently screams and curses at workers. The landlord is a greedy old man that likes to hang up on tenants. You will not get your deposit back. You'll freeze in the winter and you'll burn in a fiery hell in summer. Don't do it. If you must live downtown, spring an extra few bucks for a legitimately run and maintained establishment. Please, do yourself a favor. ...

Total Slumlord! LJF will not give you your deposit back. He parks his large RV's in tenants parking illegally, forcing tenants to park on the street. Entered in my apartment without my consent before my last official day of living there and stole my property. DO NOT rent from this greedy guy. I rented from spring 10 through fall 11. ...

A lovely 1931 bldg being allowed by new (1/15-2010) to deteriorate w/out regard for basic habitability, much less the comfort of his tenants. I rented from fall '00 through fall 11.

A new owner has completely trashed any previous reviews. LJF Investment is the new owner. The new owner has no experience in building management. Maintenance requests are ignored or forgotten. Rent is required by certified check ( Slum lord crap). I rented from fall '03 through fall 10. ...
