The June is a nice quiet place to live. I have lived here for 2 years now! Kelly my leasing agent was helpful and has remained helpful during my entire time here.

I have lived in the June since it opened in September 2020 from the beginning, Kelly was an incredible resource! She showed me various floor plans and was patient with me as I went back and forth between them.
Since moving in, the Property Manager (PM) has changed and their ability to take care of the residents is questionable. Nevertheless, Kelly has remained a terrific resource. She has been the only person to consistently respond to my inquiries.
The space is beautiful, my neighbors are great, and I truly love the building. If we could get an effective (or even basically competent) PM, this building would be perfect!

The building is new and has great amenities next door plus Kelly is a great representative for Flats and makes sure every tenant is taken care of!

I currently live in this building, and while the finishes in the apartment are nice, the rest of the experience living in this building has been terrible. With many rental options in Chicago, I implore anyone looking in this building to choose another option with Flats, or another property management company all together. I lived across the street in the Draper, and admittedly that experience was notably better, so I cannot write Flats off all together as a company (Nick Pinto contributed greatly to my experience in the Draper and is great at his job). The difference between the two experiences is the property manager. Pat Gentry, who oversees -what I hope is ONLY- the June, is the worst property manager I've encountered in my 12 years of renting. He is unresponsive to maintenance requests, as well as emails. When I moved in, the building and all the appliances were presented as new, nevertheless in the past 9 months the washing machine has broken twice and I lost $200+ in groceries because the fridge broke as well. While it is unreasonable to think things will not break at all over the course of a year, it isn't unreasonable to think that the people you pay rent to will address your issues in a timely and professional manner. The first time I waited almost 2 months before having to withhold rent to simply get a response from Pat to my many emails about getting the washing machine fixed. I've currently been waiting a week to hear back about the same washing machine being broken again, as it is having the same problem. My "new" fridge also broke a few months ago, I called various Flats numbers (including Pat's direct line) all weekend, to receive no response, and had to call several times Monday morning before being told someone would come out TUESDAY to replace the fridge. Pat indicated that he would reimburse me for the groceries, when I provided the information for the reimbursement I was told that he would suddenly only be able to reimburse $100 on a gift card, I asked to see the documentation that indicates this is a Flats policy (as the national average for a month's groceries is around $387, this number was not only ridiculous but also offensive to the loss that I faced because of his negligence). Pat has not only not provided this policy to me, but has ignored my emails for the past 3 months, as I've followed up on my request. My lease is up in April, and needless to say I will NOT be staying in the June and the biggest reason for that will be Pat's unprofessional behavior. While I've appreciated the cheap rent, I will gladly pay $100-$200 more to live in a building where my time and my money are appreciated. Please see my collection of ignored emails and resident comments if you'd like to see for yourself.
