I saw a single bedroom apartement on their website and applied online. They contacted me saying my lease is approved and they are going to charge $500 as a security deposit. Even though I did not see the apartement, I agreed and I deposited the security fee. Once I sent them the money, they sent me the lease agreement and when I check the monthly payment, guess what, it is more by solid $345 on each monthly payment, saying it is the wrong rent they used on the website. I checked on several... websites, including theirs and it was the same. When I want to cancel they said the processing time to get my money back is 45 days. The lady who talked to me was very rude.

I have been living at Homestead Apartments for one year now, and I am very happy that I found this place. I was looking to find something quickly, and Michelle from the office was very professional, welcoming and helpful in answering all of my questions and setting up the lease. The other administrative staff were very nice as well. I moved into a newly renovated apartment and I am very happy with it. The entire property is very nice and well-kept, and it is a child-friendly place to live for my... four-year-old daughter. The location is very convenient. Management has been very responsive to maintenance requests, and the maintenance staff have been helpful and in some cases have been working here for a very long time. I think the rent price is fair for the amenities provided. Overall, I have no reservations in recommending Homestead Apartments. Read More

Moved in a month ago and the apartment was definitely move-in ready and very clean. I picked the 2 bedroom floor plan and it is very spacious, which is great because me and my wife are expecting our little boy soon. Michelle was very helpful with the entire move-in process. Place is always quiet and the community is very welcoming and professional. On the 2nd floor, the living room can get a little warm, but the a/c units are low cost to operate. I recommend a tower fan to circulate the cold air... as it’s not central air. I like that we have our own storage unit, a detached garage, a laundry room on site, 2 parks, and located right by downtown Lagrange is convenient. Parking is probably the only inconvenience if you have guests over on weekend nights, but the strict policy ensures that tenants including myself have a spot everyday. Policies incorporated are fair and suitable for all tenants which I appreciate. Overall, a great experience and I look forward to the next chapter of my life here at homestead. Read More

I have lived in the Homestead community for 10+ years (moved from a 1-bedroom with dining room to a 2-bed a little over 9 years). The interior and exterior are well maintained. The maintenance staff are very friendly and helpful as well as the office staff. When you call with any problems they are addressed within hours of the call. The office staff makes you feel like family when you call or stop by. I love the monthly newsletters, with the wealth of information they provide. They try to engage... the residents with different activities throughout the year. The upgrades to the apts were small changes but made a great difference to me. The new laundry area with the industrial size washers/dryers is awesome and the room provides comfort while you wait with a seating area to include a tv with cable.

My husband and I have been living at Homestead Apartments just shy of a year. We have always been met with very professional, courteous and capable office/maintenance staff whenever any issues have arisen which have been few. The interior of our apartment (2×2) is lovely! The kitchen leaves a little to be desired in regards to counter space but we love the layout of our particular floorplan. We also love the location! The apartments are tucked away from the busy streets and surrounded by... beautiful trees and grassy, well kept courtyards. However, the Metra and a host of little restaraunts and shops are only a short 10 minute walk.

The walls are fairly thin and we have experienced hearing conversations between our neighbors while in our bedroom or the playing of music from tenants around us. There is no central AC so unfortunately in the summer when running the window units, the livingroom can feel like its freezing while the bedroom feels like a sauna. We have had a few water main breaks and have temporarily gone without water. Those are really the only downsides in my opinion. Issues happen no matter where you live, am I right?

Homestead is kept very clean, the landscaping is beautiful and I remain impressed by how professional and helpful the staff have been this past year. We love it here! Read More
