River Vista Apartments

Resident of this community for 5 years. The last 2 years have been a dramatic decline. It seems the new property owners are now only concerned with profit.
Take a tour of the property. You will notice exterior decay all over.
See those stairwells being held up by supports? Totally safe during an emergency for sure. They will get those fixed, don’t you worry. Going on two years now.
See all those balconies with their exterior torn off and all the exposed wood wrought? Totally safe I am sure.... No wait they do acknowledge those are unsafe, make sure to reduce your rent because you can’t use those. Almost a year without repairs now.
Notice the holes in the exterior with red tape covering? Yup, that’s been a year too.
Bullet holes in siding, yup you get the idea.
Maybe this year the pools will actually be cleaned for holiday weekends?
Now ask yourself what the interior must be like that you can’t even see? When they are willing for you to see these deficiencies outside, then what are they hiding?

But a facility like this must have great management team at least to make up for the deteriorating complex, right?
No you silly rabbit. The manager is utterly in personable. Dare you walk in the office for a question. See that glare of annoyance? Yup, it’s not just you. Assistant manager is nice, but clearly just there to fill units. No authority to make actual changes.

As someone who never rights reviews, I hope this warning shortens your visit and you find a nice safe well kept community somewhere else. Best wishes! Read More

These apartments are well maintained and are the definition of luxury. Management is great and maintenance is quick to fix any issues. You definitely get what you pay for and in this case, you are paying for luxury living. Keep up the good work!

River Vista is the best place to live in Wichita! Secure, clean, gorgeous views, great amenities and convenient location. The management cares so much about the property and the residents. Always professional, friendly, and helpful.

I visited some friends here and was disgusted. There was a facility wide infestation of silverfish, management sent out letters to the residence. Spiders are all around outside and other bugs. Bird poop is piled up, pet stains and smells linger. Management has a pest control fee and they do a very poor job. Trash bins were frequently overflowing and the noise is horrible. I won't visit that place at night either.

Since Maxus Properties purchased River Vista the condition and environment has deteriorated. The fountain doesn't work, the landscaping has many dead bushes, there has been pedestrians hit by moving vehicles, illegal parking. Fees, 60 day move out notice and other nasty contract gotcha's. The property needs new paint already, and the list goes on. RV is not recommended and there are many other apartments for half the price you would be just as happy with. If downtown is your thing, just drive... here from time to time and enjoy it. There is free public parking all around. Read More
