June Homes 10031, New York City – A Data-Based Decision Review
This article reviews the June Homes 10031 property, located at NY 10031 in New York City. The information is based on verified data from an independent student-housing platform, including pricing, ratings, and resident reviews. All prices are indicative — confirm with the operator. Data is current as of 2026-07.
Who This Residence Suits and Who It Does Not Suit
June Homes 10031 offers non-ensuite rooms, 1-bedroom, 3-bedroom, and 4-bedroom units in a branded independent house. The property targets young professionals and students who value flexibility, convenience, and community.
It suits:
- People who need a short-term lease (minimum 5 months) with a simpler move-in process than a traditional lease.
- Couples – the property is tagged as couple-friendly, making it a viable option for two people sharing a unit.
- Residents who prioritise location and community – rating dimensions show perfect scores of 5.0 for location, social atmosphere, amenities, community, and value for money. Getting around also scored 5.0.
- Those who do not own a car or are fine with street parking (the only parking option mentioned is street parking).
It does not suit:
- Anyone requiring an ensuite private bathroom – all unit types are non-ensuite (shared bathroom).
- People with a very tight budget – the city-wide from-price for student housing is 850 USD/month, but this property starts at 1275 USD/month, which is 50% higher than the absolute floor. However, within the context of New York City, 1275–1575 USD/month is in the lower-middle range for private rooms.
- Residents who need guaranteed photo-perfect condition – one review explicitly mentions a mismatch between listing photos and reality (more on that below).
- Those who are allergic to shared spaces or have high standards for indoor cleanliness – overall cleaning scores are 3.5 out of 5, and indoor spaces score 3.8.
The property has an elevator, which is a plus for upper-floor accessibility. Street parking is available but not guaranteed – check with the operator if you have a vehicle.
What Residents Actually Say
Three Google reviews are available for this property (total 1400 Google reviews, average 4.0 stars). We quote them verbatim:
Positive – Mohamad Karim (5 stars):
“I had a great experience with June Homes. The move-in process was smooth, the apartment matched the listing, and the support team was responsive whenever I had questions.

This resident highlights the smooth move-in, match to listing, responsive support, and cleanliness. The review cuts off, but the message is clearly positive.
Negative – Sharmila Biswas (1 star):
“Andres & Nelly Real Estate agents in New York City- False advertising! June Homes showcase photos in their adds which is far off from reality. It is one thing that photos sometimes don’t match and it is completely different if they are selling furnished units to working professionals and taking a fee for cleaning and n”
This reviewer experienced a significant gap between advertised photos and actual condition. They also mention a cleaning fee issue. This is a red flag for newcomers – you should request a video tour or recent photos of the exact unit before committing.
Positive – Dawit Desta (5 stars):
“I’ve genuinely enjoyed living with June Homes. The moving process was simple, which made settling in easy. The place was clean, comfortable, and felt welcoming from day one. Also, whenever I’ve reached out with a question, their customer service has always been helpful and prompt. I’d definitely recommend June Homes if”
Like the first review, this one praises easy move-in, cleanliness, comfort, and responsive customer service.
Summary from reviews: Most residents appreciate the flexibility, ease of move-in, and friendly staff. However, at least one person had a negative experience with false advertising and fees. The average rating of 4.0 from 1400 reviews suggests the majority are satisfied, but you should verify the specific unit before signing.
Price Positioning vs City From-Price
New York City’s lowest-priced student housing option in our database starts at 850 USD/month. June Homes 10031 ranges from 1275 to 1575 USD/month (all indicative). That is 50% to 85% above the city floor.
However, the city from-price of 850 USD likely reflects a shared room or a very basic dormitory-style accommodation in a less central location. The June Homes property sits in Manhattan (zip code 10031, near Harlem/Washington Heights). Its location score is a perfect 5.0, so the premium likely buys better access to subway lines, restaurants, and activities.
For context, the deposit is 500 USD – relatively low compared to a typical NYC security deposit of one month’s rent. The minimum lease of 5 months makes it more flexible than most apartments that require 12-month contracts.
The property’s “value for money” rating dimension scores 5.0, indicating that residents who live there consider the price fair given the location and amenities. But again, check with the operator whether the rent includes utilities, internet, and cleaning fees (one reviewer mentioned a cleaning fee).
Room-Type Guidance
Available unit types: non-ensuite, 1-bedroom, 4-bedroom, 3-bedroom, branded independent house. Since all are non-ensuite, you will share a bathroom with at least one other person. The 1-bedroom unit might be a studio or a separate room with a shared bathroom? Clarify with the operator – “1b” here likely means one bedroom in a larger shared apartment.
- If you want maximum privacy, a 1-bedroom unit (if available as a solo room) is best, but you will still share a bathroom.
- If you want to keep costs low, choose a 3-bedroom or 4-bedroom shared house – the lower end of the price range (1275 USD) probably applies to such rooms.
- If you are a couple, the couple-friendly tag implies you can share a room or a larger unit. Confirm with the operator whether double occupancy incurs an extra fee.
The property is a “branded independent house” – meaning it’s professionally managed by June Homes, not a traditional dorm. That offers more independence but also less built-in community than a residence hall.
Booking Timing
The property does not list a specific “available from” date, meaning availability changes frequently. Given that the minimum lease is 5 months, you should start looking at least 2–3 months before your desired move-in date to secure a room. New York City’s housing market moves fast – popular units in Manhattan may fill up weeks in advance.
Because the reviews mention potential mismatches between photos and reality, it is wise to request a virtual tour or ask for recent videos of the exact unit you will be assigned. Avoid booking blindly more than 30 days out without verification.
The high number of Google reviews (1400) indicates the property is well-known and has been operational for some time, so availability may be seasonal. Expect higher demand and possibly higher prices during the fall semester (August–September) and summer.
Frequently Asked Questions
H3: Is the deposit refundable? What is the total upfront cost?
The deposit shown is 500 USD. Typically, deposits are refundable if no damage occurs, but you should confirm the policy with June Homes. Also ask about any administration fees or cleaning fees – the negative review mentioned a cleaning fee. Total upfront cost = first month’s rent (at least 1275 USD) + deposit (500 USD) = 1775 USD minimum. If you move in mid-month, prorated rent may apply.
H3: Can I live there with a partner? Does the couple-friendly tag mean anything extra?
Yes, the property is tagged couple-friendly, meaning two people can share a room or a unit. However, standard occupancy rules may apply. Confirm with the operator whether the rent changes for double occupancy and whether both names need to be on the lease. Utilities and internet terms should also be discussed.
H3: Why are all units non-ensuite? Are there any private bathrooms?
All listed unit types at this property are non-ensuite, so you will always share a bathroom with other residents in your apartment. If a private bathroom is essential, this property is not suitable. The positive side is that the amenities and condition ratings are decent (3.8–5.0 on most dimensions), so shared bathrooms are likely managed well.
