Hi All,

I went to the apt today. Very nice! Building A is move in-ready but still has some construction such as the fitness room, children room, package storage room. Building B and C are still under construction. Building A is 17 story has 2 elevators and a has over 300 or so surveillance cameras in and around the building and will have a security guard. I believe that each apt has a different layout depending on AMI. I wish the master bedroom was a tad bit larger and my unit does not have a walk in closet as shown on housing connect. I am assuming the higher AMI's have that privilege-but it is still a nice sized closet. I also wish there was at least 1 more closet besides the bedroom's. Like I wish there was a coat closet near the front entrance and 1 linen closet. But beggars cannot be choosers! The kitchen is really nice, there is a nice size living room and space for a dinning room table near the kitchen. My favorite part is the natural lighting and views (large windows)! Overall, beautiful place....I am super excited and I have accepted the unit and waiting for further instructions on signing the lease.

To add, I was told that amenities are included within the rent. You pay for rent as well as electricity. There is a brand new shared garage which is separate and I went to inquire about pricing and it is $300...yikes. The super and his family literally just moved in last week and there is someone moving in 2 weeks. So there are no tenants yet.

I hope this information helps! Best of luck to everyone!

So happy for you!! With the electricity & amenities fee are included in the rent, it's a HUGE steal!!! That would help cutting your monthly expenses significantly.

Oh, my mistake, I misunderstood your earlier post re: electricity. Yeah, I bet Apex will be a great apartment building, hopefully it will be well maintained. Congrats again!!

Thank you and don’t lose hope! Because there are 3 buildings and building A has 17 floors and the two other have 13 . That’s a lot it units and this whole complex is affordable housing/lottery based. So there’s a lot of units to be filled
