Forest Place

Attached to this review are images showing the unsanitary conditions found on all the balconies of the building at 1650 NE 135th St., and the poor handling of this problem by the building manager, Jessica Cáceres. I also document the lack of professional ethics I experience when I go to the building office, despite living in the building for over two years and my family residing in the unit for over five years, and being responsible tenants who abide by the building's rules and make our payments in an exemplary manner. These photos also include evidence from other reviews of people complaining about her lack of professional ethics when dealing with residents of the community, which is a serious and ongoing problem.

Dear Members of the Corporate Management and Administration Team, Through this letter, I formally and respectfully address you with the purpose of leaving written record and submitting an official complaint regarding a situation that occurred at the administrative office of the Forest Place building, located at 1650 NE 135 St, North Miami, which I consider inappropriate, concerning, and contrary to the principles of professional ethics, respectful treatment of residents, and proper administrative management. Earlier today, at approximately 4:50 p.m., I entered the building’s administrative offices to request assistance related to the package reception lockers operated by the company Parcel Pending, which are part of the community’s service system. Upon entering, I was attended by the bui

Posting this to document my experience. I went to the office seeking help with a package and the locker system, and they refused to cooperate. When I stated I would email corporate due to the lack of respect and professionalism, the manager Jessica Cáceres raised her voice and threatened to remove me from the building or cancel my lease. I did not threaten anyone. This behavior is recurrent whenever residents are assisted by her. I am posting this for documentation and protection against any future retaliation or false claims.

As I approached the building the property was stunning. The pool looks clean and refreshing. The property looked clean and well maintained. When arriving Adrian, Natalie and Jessica were all very helpful in the process of helping me find my dream apartment. As a first time leasee I didnt know where to start however they pointed me in the right direction. I explained to them my situation as well as what I had going on. They showed me 2-3 floor plans and ensured that I loved the floor plan I would be residing in. I also had issues with their verification system and they reached out and worked diligently with me. Another big thing that I really loved is that when I viewed the units I viewed units that I would actually be residing in. Thats the best way to view your apartment! Thanks and cudos

Welcome to Forest Place Apartments, 1600 NE 135th Street, North Miami, FL 33181: where the roaches sign longer leases than the tenants. If Dante wrote the Inferno in Miami, this place would’ve been the 10th circle of hell. I lived here 10 years (2014–2024). That’s not renting—that’s a hostage situation with automatic withdrawals. Ten years is 20% of this building’s entire lifespan. I know this place inside and out. LISTEN UP. Back then: under the late John J. Brunetti, elevators worked, roaches stayed in hiding, and rent hikes were tolerable (under 10% a year). Now: after Brunetti passed in 2018, the estate I believe sold the property, and along came new owners who felt like they’d graduated from a late-night real estate seminar. Repairs slowed to a crawl, while rent hikes shot up 17%+
