Nova North Apartments

I lived here for a year and 6 months unfortunately . Ive seen multiple cars broken into(including u-hauls), there was a “unaliving” that took place in the complex next door, neighbors are loud and inconsiderate, you will constantly see trash in the hallways, the quiet hours aren’t enforced, the fire alarm is pulled every few weeks for no reason like clockwork, the no smoking rule is a JOKE! There is a constant cigarette smell, the walls are thin as paper and the doors are not insulated or even... fitted properly leaving the biggest gaps I've ever seen. Because of that I can hear a penny drop in the hallway on the other side of the building. The staff is nice but almost never in the office and they don't answer the phone so good luck getting packages if they were even delivered to the right place or stolen, and don't even bother ordering anything you need to sign for. There is a fruit fly AND roach problem. The water is STILL YELLOW and every time I brought it up they said “its acceptable by city standards”, I had a total of 5 packages stolen, I have only seen security ONCE since they were hired, there is only one working elevator in the whole complex so if you’re not in building A good luck, maintenance has entered as far as I know 2 times without proper notification forcing me to install cameras. Since I have been here for over a year I now pay MORE than what they charge for a 2 bed for a 1 bed! Do yourself a favor and do not rent here or anywhere else on casino road! Read More

Living here has been beyond horrible. I can't wait for our lease to be up. no safety my husband truck was broken and goods stolen just outside our parking the office workers are horrible out of office now and then breaks it's just a horrible place to be!

Great place to live management is kind and understanding, the apartments came a long way.
They have a new maintenance supervisor and he is absolutely wonderful.
Debbi the manager in the office is lovely, kind, respectful, and understanding with most things :)…
There could be more improvements in certain areas of the apartments but what time I’m sure the new management will get everything in order..
If you’re looking for a nice place to live with decent rent and an awesome community, this would... be the apartment complex to live in… Read More

Management never around, painstaking process getting packages from office, deceitful marketing makes you think this property is upscale when in reality it is not in any way shape or form. Common areas are never cleaned, expect to see the same litter in your hallway from your neighbors for weeks. There’s a huge camp of transient people that set up tent behind the leasing office- that’s how you know you’re at Nova. Lots of mold everywhere.

Pros:
- Tiny secluded gym
- Location is in a quiet part of Everett
- "Renovated" apartments are new, but cheaply done.

Cons:
- Yellow water (Not even a Brita filter could filter out the rust no lie)
- Thin walls, i could hear everything in the hallway for a mile
- 10th Ave is a literal drug dealing central area for Everett
- Consistently saw cars broken into (10th Ave)
- I've seen more than one diaper in the pool area after a big family party.
- Elevators are out of commission
- "No smoking" is... not enforced at all
- Free Parking was removed and replaced with the words loudest and cheapest awnings made out of tin or aluminum.
- Spray chemicals on the grass once a week with no "Keep pet off lawn" sign
- The "Security" they provide is non-existent.
- OVERPRICED for what is offered.
Do not be fooled by how luxurious the main office looks, it does not reflect whats in the apartments.

My Experience:
I was charged $300 in damages, the DAY BEFORE I even moved out. How this even makes sense is beyond me. When I talked to management he told me they charge everyone that amount because carpet cleaning is ~$220 and painting the walls (which they only do touch-ups) costs ~$100. ALSO my carpets were never cleaned before I moved in so where did the deposit money go for the tenant before me? If you try and refute these seemingly random charges, they will just sent it to collections and then your credit score gets screwed up. So there is no winning. At the end of the day, including my deposit that disappeared before I was even moved out, it cost me $500 just to leave.

In a nutshell, stay away from this place. It is a cheap property for the company to train their management (they get changed out basically every year) while simultaneously pulling as much money as they can. Read More
