I rented a house in Maryville and could not have been any happier. Im guessing the bad reviews came…read morefrom people who just didn't take care of the place like it was there own. They allowed me to have my dogs with an extra deposit and allowed me to go month to month when the house I was building was taking longer than expected. I had a few items that needed attention on the property during my stay and they were on the issues immediately and were always mindful of my time and schedule. I recently moved out with normal wear and tear over the almost 2 years I was there and received all of my deposit back. I would definitely recommend Lerch properties to anyone who is looking to rent in the area.

If you call the office they will not take responsibility for maintenance. They just advise you to…read morecall and leave a message or email the maintenance department. The office actually advised me to use ice when my fridge and freezer went out because they couldn't tell me when someone would be out to take a look. Ive lost my food in my freezer and fridge and wasn't even given the common courtesy of "I'm sorry" or assure me when maintenance would be able to address this. I'm a renter and this is THEIR job to figure this out. I can not wait to move!

I can't recommend the Meridian Village Reach rehab facility. My wife spent more than a week there…read morerecovering from an emergency partial hip replacement. While she was there, she showed multiple signs of a UTI, possibly from catheterization during her surgery. I mentioned this several times and was ignored until I showed staff positive results from a home UTI test. They then agreed to send out a urine sample for test, but never got back to us with the results. Subsequent testing at BJC confirmed a UTI and my wife was put on antibiotics. Conjecture by a friend is that Meridian didn't want to report an infection to the state and was simply waiting for her to be discharged rather than taking action. Home care would have been better and safer for my wife.

The REACH program at Meridian is awesome, they are so friendly to my grandma who has had to be here…read moretwice now, they offer activities, bring therapy dogs, bring her snacks sometimes, at first she wanted to go home but now she kind of likes it here, she is still wanting to go home but at the same time she is comfortable here, they are quick at bringing her medicine when she isn't feeling good, the only thing I would recommend improving on is the therapy department here, there is a BIG lack of communication and don't always do the best job they either overwork her too much or they don't do enough at times, but other than that I think if you have to stay here for a short time for physical rehab I think it's a good place to go to. I can't vouch for the other living arraignments or their wait time for placement but as far as the REACH program I say excellent! Thank you for helping my grandma during this temporary hard time

Even when they fix it, it still doesn't work! No windows in the living room making it so dull. Rent is extremely high compared to what you get. You only get $30 for electricity per month. Internet is very slow (thats if it works) and you only get a couple of HD channels. They also charged us $180 extra for electricity!! Guys, if you value your money, look for other places to live!!

It was the first place I got after my undergrad and was perfect for what I needed. I never had any major issues. The pump on one of the toilets broke and was fixed in less than 3 days by their maintenance crew. Treat the place good and pay your rent on time like a decent human...you will have a great, reliable, and affordable home/apartment. If I did not take a job outside of the Metro East, I would still be there!

Don't expect to ever see your deposits or the interest on your deposits, and don't expect the owner to pay for the electricity for outside lighting -- it's all wired to the inside of the units so you get to pay without even knowing it! If this all sounds good to you, then this is the place to go. Otherwise, I advise you move into your local jail; it's certainly quieter!

Nothing was wrong with the paint at all. They also invented many new charges and fees to tag us with. I've heard many bad things about the owners and properties here. Drugs were beginning to be a problem in this area as well (maryville). Avoid these properties at all cost!

They have misplaced rental payments, I have as well as neighbors had leaks they delayed in repairing. Which exposed us to mold or electrical issues. I have had personal appliances blow out because of their electrical problems. Then they refuse to replace them will have to go to small claims court. They can't keep the same ppl in the office 4 ppl in 2 years I was told. They are rude in the office. The maintenance men aren't certified or they wouldn't need to keep coming back every other week to fix what they say was repaired. Stuck by a lease. Prices are affordable and I only suggest moving here if your other option is being homeless.
