The Lyfe @ Missouri Apartamentos

My son has lived here for almost five months, and it has been one headache after another. It started at move in day, as the apartment was not anything like the model unit that was shown to us on our tour. The units were supposed to have some upgrades to the flooring and counters in the kitchen. Not only was the apartment very old and dated looking, the apartment was filthy dirty! There was left over food in the kitchen, cigarettes in the bathroom toilet, the laminate on the kitchen cabinets... was peeling off, the provided television set was on the floor and the old wall mount for the tv had been thrown out on the patio, one of the bathrooms didn't have hot water, there was food particles and an awful smell in the dishwasher because nothing had been cleaned from the previous tenants. Although numerous calls and maintenance requests were made several times almost 4 weeks went by before the tv was mounted back onto the wall and hot water fixed in the bathroom. Then, in December the building's sprinkler system pipes busted and damaged many items in my son's bedroom and bathroom. Some of the damage was due to the workers who were trying to fix the water leaks. From December 25 until Jan 15th his bedroom and bathroom was uninhabitable. I have attempted multiple times to contact Brock, the property manager, but he will not return my calls or respond to my emails about any of the damage. One of the big safety issues that still exists is that they removed the smoke detectors in the apartment due to the water issues, and they still have not been replaced. There are just wires hanging out of the ceiling! Lee mas

First, the model is updated and the majority of the units are not! My unit had checkered tiles and dirty carpet that did not look like the wood floors and modern carpet in the model. Overall the quality is subpar.

Additionally, the amenities are some of the worst in Columbia. They did not have a pool maintenance team when I lived there which meant that the pool was closed almost all summer following issues with the chemicals/upkeep. Following a shooting, they removed the basketball court and... put some cheap turf and pergolas over top to make a “chill” area that is not at all practical. The bus was unreliable for the two years because they only have one driver who is not contracted out through a shuttle company like nearly every other property in Columbia.

After I left the issues have only increased. According to my lease I was owed my security deposit 30-60 days after I handed over the keys to my unit which was in July 2022. I have yet to receive the money and can NEVER get in contact with Brock. Overall the experience has been awful and I hope others can avoid the issues I have had. Lee mas

ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT HERE. We moved in about a month ago and this complex completely blew my expectations. On move in there was a slight mishap but Raelynn was able to accommodate my needs so quickly. I came in with random roommates and she really placed me with girls who I click so well with

I’ve lived at The Lyfe for 2 years and have loved it. The amenities are great, the staff has always been kind and accommodating, and the apartment itself is clean, comfortable, and spacious. I’ve only had one reason to call maintenance and they came immediately the next day. I’d recommend The Lyfe to anyone in Columbia.
