Forced out tenants because of roach infestation

In August 2024, this place forced all their residents out because they couldn’t control the roach infestation. They did not provide help for moving, finding a new place, or rent reimbursement. GLM owns several apartment properties, yet they provided no alternatives or deals to move into another one of their properties. Leonard East sat empty for the winter and now with some new balconies and paint, they are back on the market… save yourself the stress and find a different place to live. The bugs… are still there and will always be there until the buildings are demolished.

Property Manager at Leonard East Apartments responded to this review

We appreciate your feedback and understand the frustration this situation caused. The persistent pest issue was something we inherited from previous ownership, and we fought long and hard to alleviate the problem with extensive treatments and… preventative measures. Despite our best efforts, we saw little reprieve, leading us to make the difficult but necessary decision to temporarily vacate the property in order to fully remediate the issue.
Since then, we have worked diligently with professional exterminators to ensure a 100% pest-free environment, and we are proud to say that Leonard East has undergone upgrades to improve the living experience. In addition to exterior renovations such as new balconies, we have also made interior enhancements, including new flooring, fixtures, closet systems, and a complete refresh with updated paint throughout the units.
Our goal has always been to provide a clean, comfortable, and welcoming place for our residents, and we remain committed to ongoing maintenance and improvements. If you have any questions or would like to speak directly with management, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Roaches/Bad Neighbors/Not Clean

You get what you pay for. This is a low end apartment and the price reflects that. Bed bugs and roaches are present in some if not all of the buildings. Hallways are not well kept and the laundry was broken for a long time. Neighbors smoking weed all the time and the smell can get into other apartments. I’ve had an Amazon package stolen and I can hear fighting/disputes often. The management are usually easy to deal with but clearly aren’t doing enough. Please consider other options.

Roach infestation

Our apartment has been infested with roaches since we move in, we were not informed of this. We have had several inspections and treatments but it seems management won’t do a required full extermination. We have experienced other pest options as well. Slow on fulfilling maintenance requests.

Roach Infestation

Apartment is currently infested with roaches and has been since before we moved in. We were not informed of the infestation until a few months into our lease when we started to notice them in the kitchen area and in the bathroom. Our apartment is clean and we have had several visits by pest control and still nothing has changed....we were told the entire unit is infested. So, we are currently looking to end our lease early because of this issue and management can’t seem to do anything to help… it!!!
