Lived here for 6 months and really enjoyed it. Great location, and good quality interiors. We had new paint, new carpet when we moved in and whenever we had maintenance issues, the staff repaired it within 3-5 days. The best was the leasing office staff - they were very helpful and friendly and just nice folks (DeJaye especially). We had a few issues with our upstairs neighbors and the office staff dealt with it promptly. We had a screened porch overlooking a wooded area and thats hard to find in this market. Yes, it was expensive and our rent was going up so we decided to buy a house. If not for that, we would still be there and would still be happy.

OK, upfront, let’s be real: Could be a two-star review but not at $1,800 per month for a two bedroom walk up that’s driving distance from, well, everything. Here’s what no one else seems to want to talk about. The build on these 13 year old structures isn’t luxury grade even though management will advertise as if, and will tell you that, it is. So the obsolescence on components; plumbing, appliances, electrical, HVAC, and the carpet has come due. In the end that means when you move in and the carpet has stains, the shower sounds like an F1 race, the scale and crud around everything looks and smells offensive, the builder grade kitchen faucet is dangling, the toilet is running and the washing machine sounds like a jet on approach at RDU the management team says “well sorry, you do have 30 days to exit the lease without penalty”. Save yourself the trouble, right now you don’t need to exit the lease without penalty, so why put yourself in a position where you surely will need to?

Decent apartment. Shady and arrogant management. You get what you pay for. 🚮
