Has anyone leased an apartment through YEHS in Soulard? (apartments, rental)

[jchew1980]

Hello all,

I am researching apartments in Soulard and I am looking into a couple management companies. I was wondering if anyone has heard of or has leased an apartment through YEHS? Do you know much about them and are they any good? I can't seem to find much about them on-line as far as the actual management company. The other one I've found is BSB. Do you know anything about them? How do they rate? I just don't want to go through Red Brick because I've heard that they're not the best at doing what a management does! Most of the complaints I've heard are small. but still it kinda gives you the feeling of "Large company not looking after the little guy", you know! Any help, suggestions, or info is greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

Im sorry I cant give much info on either. Another company with buildings in Soulard is Rodemyer - Christel. I rented a nice 2 bedroom place from them on 11th and Barton. They were not bad to deal with, but make sure any repairs that need to be done are finished before moving in, even if you have it stipulated in the rent. We were promised a new oven from months and never received it.

Don't know if this is too late but I worked for YEHS in the late 90's and they were sloppy, and at times dishonest. At one time they advised me not to call the fire department (there was smoke) because they didn't want to be written up for code.

Hope this is helpful

I would definitely recommend renting from YEHS, a rental agency that has awesome maintenance service ,friendly and helpful workers and housing for EVERYBODY! Unlike RED BRICK YEHS is really cheap! They offer market rate and income base apartments from 1 to 4 bedrooms and also sell houses in the soulard area which cost only a third of the actual market price! i am currently renting from them and havent had no problems whatsoever..
