| - I rated 4 stars as we've only been here for 2 months. My husband and I relocated from Florida to Charlotte. Hope (Leasing) was fantastic throughout the process from touring to application to move-in.
Unit: For our first home in Charlotte, we are happy. We are in a 1/1. We previously lived in a 2/2.5 townhouse and quite honestly, this apartment feels roomier. There is plenty of storage for 2 people: small coat closet, laundry room with multiple shelves, walk-in closet and outdoor storage closet on patio! The unit was in a good condition (aside from a bit of a messy paint job on trim and doors.) The prices (including a garage, cable/internet and trash valet) is very reasonable, but keep in mind, I am comparing to Florida living!
Neighborhood/Area: I haven't lived in an apartment complex since 2007 so I was a bit hesitant at first. We lucked out with quiet neighbors and overall I feel safe. Prior to move-in there were a few incidents that made me concerned, but I have not experienced anything that would make me feel uncomfortable/unsafe. However, like most large complexes with cars parked outside, there are concerns of car "break-ins" which I assume are kids looking for unlocked car doors. The neighborhood is clean and well-maintained. It is pet friendly but unfortunately not all pet owners clean up. If you aren't a pet owner, you won't have to worry about the minefield, but we've had a few "poop on our shoes" incidents. The location is fantastic! Lots of shopping, dining, bars and coffee places to hang. Plus, it's a short drive to Southpark/Uptown/NoDa which are areas we like to visit!
Staff: I really have only interacted with Hope in the office. She is sweet (and professional) as can be! We had a battery issue shortly after move-in that we didn't think much about. When we mentioned it to Hope, she explained the importance and had maintenance over within 10 minutes! Other than that, I haven't had any maintenance issues but I always see maintenance staff cleaning and maintaining the property. I really like how they look into things if something seems out of place. Plus, they always say hello and have a smile! The community has a website and I see other office staff members that are interactive and quick to respond to resident posts.
We are happy with our decision to make Camden Stonecrest our first home in Charlotte!
