Nikki Levy Interiors Nikki Levy Michael Levy Alyssa Plotke Nikki Levy Interiors LLC BUYER BEWARE- Boca "Interior Designer” will sell you faux painting and custom furniture for elevated prices to line her pockets and refuse to show you invoices or tell you who will be doing the work. Boca Raton Florida

We contracted this designer to design our entire new build house. We paid a 15,000 fee plus 25% of anything she purchased or designed. Throughout the process, we were presented with certain designs and options. Later on, she would tell us it wasn’t available, too expensive (without ever showing the price) etc. All of her alternative options included faux painting. This allowed her to make up any quote without having to purchase materials such as wallpaper, wall coverings, material to cover a fireplace drywall, etc. we felt catfished.

All furnishings were pressured and designed to be custom made at exorbitant high prices. We feel she was involved in conspiracy with the furniture maker to set prices.  Again, this makes her more of the 25% by selling higher priced items that are not in the best interest of the client, but rather her. She failed to show fabrics, prices, etc until we filed suit. The sofa we did not approve but for anyway was made of plastic and looked like was built and covered by a child.  

We outlined our priorities to purchase and they were not honored.  Her software defaults the toggle to approved without us even opening the software. I reported this to her several times.

 A few things we had to hunt down because they were never delivered. We had paid in full for the items plus her commission. Some items that we paid for are never made or delivered. She kept monies for almost a year before refunding us “some” because it would qualify as actual theft. Some monies we never received back. Invoices and vendor info that had to be approved by us per her contract, were not provided. Her husband begrudgingly handed over invoices after I told him I will tell everyone I know what they are doing. He had initially refused my request on the phone.

We had to sue to recover money back on broken and faulty items and some items that were never delivered. She has since fought to get my reviews taken down (even though I have not violated any terms) and has had friends and family post positive reviews for her (about 10 were posted the same day) to boost her ratings. Several people contacted us after they got wind of the situation to share that they had fired her for similar reasons.  Old employees of hers contacted us to tell us about experiences and she had her lawyer threaten to sue them.

During this suit,  she has refused to turn over discovery which would show contractor quotes, vendor info,  and other info that we should've been privy to per her contract. They have ignored a judge's demand to turn it over. It seems to me,  that to take that chance, you might be protecting something bigger.

Sketchy doesn't even start to describe her and the way she runs her business. Why is it all such a secret? Every other person we have worked with has no issue providing info to us when asked. Watch out for this one.
