Not at all surprised about the reviews
I'm truly unsure who reached out to me on yesterday, whomever it was completely deterred me from wanting to rent with the Lawrence House. I received a call asking had I called the Lawrence, which I explained yes, I was trying to complete my application, but it wouldn't allow me to move pass the income portion because I didn't have a months' worth of checks. I just moved to Chicago with my new job, so I only had 1 check stub, however I had my offer letter. The person then stated, did you not... try and upload the documents to other documents, I explained yes, and then it was an attitude from that point on. The Winnie staff on the other hand was extremely helpful and very pleasant
