I first moved into LeFrak City in March of 2017. I will be leaving in February of 2019. I currently live in a three-bedroom apartment on the Horace Harding side. The first year of my tenancy was okay. All of the maintenance requests we submitted were fulfilled within a day or two. The superintendent was helpful and his office was open most of the time. However, after a few months, we started to notice the severe rodent problem that everyone talks about. There were roaches all over the kitchen, and a few in the bathroom. T... read more

Don't expect to get much of your deposit back! Was a loyal tenant For eight years, paid my rent on time all of the time! When I moved out nickel and dime every little thing to give me back as little of my deposit as legally possible. Oh and they threatened legal action. Do yourself a favor and pass on these guys

I lived in this complex on 2017, and I have been extremely disappointed with roaches (100 roaches the first night. Just a nightmare) and flooding. Be careful because they also try to keep your deposit. I don't recommend this place at all.

Positives: Convenient location Good keeping of the exterior of the buildings Secure safe boxes for packages Negatives: Prepare to not have water at least once a month You may have to spend money on extermination because the building management will take a lot of time to address the roach & mice infestation they forget to mention upon signing the lease People often smoke weed on the staircases, it's very common & therefore you will have to endure secondhand smoke in your apartment because the smell travels fast The laund... read more

The water has been off all day without any notification until mid-day (1:30 PM). The water came back on at 6:45 PM. Right now (as I am writing this post) it's 11:53 PM & the water has looked like this (see picture). It has been running for an hour & it still does not clear up. I called maintenance, only to be rerouted to a VERY rude female security officer. She answered the phone saying, "what do you want?! Talk! Talk!" I told her about the issue with the water & she said it's not her problem & I need to call back tomorrow. ... read more

How do I make it zero? My family and I have been in lefrak for 20 year now. A year more than I've been alive for ! It used to be great , no one bothered you, security was great, prices great , cool. The first thing that happened was Cosco and GW came to town, and they added all of these BS electric Key Chips, and buzzing systems that don't even work, and made "elevator enhancements", I didn't ask for none of this but they increased our rent. Fine no biggie, let's keep going .. they take over a month to respond to service re... read more

I lived in Le Frak City for 1 year. When I had to sign for the leasing they asked me so many qualifications that I thought they would give me a royal palace, but the first night I realized that it was just a mouse hole. First night after entering I had to kill over 100 roaches all around the apt, and this situation last for at least one week. After having sealed all the possible slots was a bit better, but still unacceptable. After another week a pipe of the toilette exploded and we had the first flooding. After several mont... read more

I lived in LeFrak City's Singapore building (98-17) for five years. By the time I left, LeFrak was a very nice-looking facade and set of grounds spackled over some of the worst infrastructure I've encountered at that price point. Water pressure was laughable, water was often turned off with no warning for up to 10 hours at a time "for repairs", large cracks across walls and ceilings formed, and "security" seems in place largely to chase off anyone whose car is idling too long in front of the building. Vermin (mice, waterbugs... read more
