Franklin Park

I moved here because it was unfortunately the only availability I could find at the time and was in a time crunch to establish residency before the school year started. We rented under both the previous and current property owners from August 2022 to September 2023 (13 month lease was cheaper). Both companies were basically trash but at least the maintenance and price was better with the previous one. Our downstairs neighbors below us had a mice infestation that neither company chose to do… anything about. Upon talking to other tenants, we found out it was a problem all over throughout the complex. There is something seriously wrong with the electrical like one of the other reviews mentioned. The lighting goes out periodically and all maintenance does is tell us that it’s just due to being old and outdated. The electric baseboard heat barely works either and somehow costs a fortune it was about $300 a month for our electricity bill during the winter!! We had a problem with one of our toilets constantly running that happened when the new company took over and when they finally came out to look at it they were unable to fix it so just ended up turning it off and going without one of the bathrooms until we were finally able to move! It was literally the most awful experience I’ve had to endure living anywhere in my entire life. I’m so thankful to have found a new place nearby and have such a deep appreciation for living where we are at now. Read More

I am a current resident and I cannot wait until my lease is up. These buildings need major electrical repairs. Plugs and heat don’t work! I repeat DO NOT RENT HERE. The renovations are not done by professionals. It’s very sloppy and not worth the price. They’re now using some type of 3D AI enhancements for the pics they show on here to trick people.. apartment looks NOTHING like it. There is an infestation of bugs that they refuse to do anything about! The doors to the building don’t lock and… neither do the patio doors. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere. Read More

I loved living there until we got new owners. My lease will be up in October and they are increasing my rent by over $150 plus now charging more for heating and requiring additional parking fees. These changes caused me to find another apartment. This new place will still require me to pay what Franklin Park Apartments will be charging but I will have access to an outdoor pool and fitness center free of charge. At the time of writing this, they currently have 21 unit available in the next 2… months. Shocking and now I understand why. Read More

It's a nice area, but the apartments are poor. They advertise this huge remodel, but all it is new paint and floors due to wear and tear, now they raised the prices in rent to make up for the expenses that there realizing these apartments need, but don't fix. electrical outlets are old, don't hold a plug in, or spark. No storage, most basements are in no conditions to store anything, all my property I put down there has been damaged due to heavy mold. Really bad conditions down there, moved here… to give my children a better life, but at these new prices this place definitely is not worth it. I've had broken outlets, broken bathroom tile floors, and broken venting fans in kitchen and bathrooms, that have not worked since I moved here, still not fixed, I wonder if there gonna try to make me use my renters insurance to pay fixing it, and I heard from other tenants that they give you a hard time to get your deposit back. rent keeps going up but nothing major gets fixed, these new owners fixed my kitchen light fixture that had been out for the last five years, when the maintenance came to look at it, it was not even connected ,wires were hanging out of where a light build was supposed to go. place has been sold like for times since I moved in seven years ago. Something's going on here. Waiting for some kind of change, or for them to the consider changing unit prices, definitely not worth what they are asking for. That must be why people move in and then move out. No one last here. Read More
