    I have been renting from them since 2018. Things have progressively gotten worse. First rent started at $585 for the 2 bedroom 1 bathroom and now the rent is $935 with no updates ever made. My recent issue with them is that I paid my rent in full on July 5th at 10:44 am. They gave charged me a late fee and said that it’s to their discretion when they can charge me a late fee. While 770 ILCS 95/7.10 states otherwise. When I told them it’s against the law to charge me a late fee if I paid within the 5 days, they offered to “waive” the fee. I’ve also had a time where there was water leaking in the wall behind my kitchen sink. They came and cut the wall open behind my sink, under the sink and in my bathroom next to my toilet. They left it cut open for days with a horrible smell coming from the holes. They eventually came and patched the wall back together days later.

    The building we lived in was owned by a private couple, which we entered into a lease agreement with. Afterwards we were on a month to month lease and after about 3 years of this.. Young America entered the picture. Before this happened, anything I needed fixed was a phone call away. Afterwards I could not get in touch with anyone for anything... We ended up letting the property owner know in writing we were going to be moving with 3 months notice! This company has tried everything they can think of to try to charge us exorbitant fees for not giving notice or leaving the keys somewhere. My gf even made the YA guy aware vocally alongside the owner that we were moving when she reinforced the point in person on a state inspection. The reason that YA even took interest is because they couldn't get in touch with us to sign our new lease agreement with vastly raised rent prices!! Please, if you can avoid using YA, do it!
    Unbelievable!

    This company is the WORST rental leaser for myself, current, and past residents. They will enter your personal space whether you are sleeping, showering, or worse in order to milk as much money as they can from college students. They REFUSE to attend to living standards and even structural problems until renters force them to address it or when its too late. This company is heartless. They only care about profit for themselves and nothing about the renters making their pockets deeper.
