Great location, struggling maintenance
I've lived in Village Lofts for over half a decade now- once you acclimate to the smaller square footage (which directly contributes to a lower price compared to comps in the area), you get the benefit of one of the best areas to live in in the city. One block from 4th St, right off the block of the arts district, and dead center of a very walkable city makes this space hard to match.
Small spaces come with their own limitations- no in-unit laundry, no tub, look elsewhere for exercise options.... But you can walk to 10 breweries, 10 coffee shops, great restaurants, etc.
Management in this property has changed over recently- a new company came in, did many necessary facelifts, and raised rent. I'm pleased with the new direction and the new look, but maintenance now seems to be struggling to keep up. A shortage of appliances in the community laundry space makes the task take all day or more. Pair that with unanswered maintenance tickets and you're better off paying for a laundromat.
Overall, if the lifestyle of holding onto less and living in a small space is worth the budget consideration, this property is highly recommended. I just hope the response of the new management company keeps up with the reality of a residential property this large.
