Nathan Ralston is a superb leasing representative. He communicates well, is professional, is flexible with practical problems, and is a reliable helper. Today, I switched my lease from a two- to one-bedroom apartment, and Nathan gave an affordable one with a good move-in date. I highly recommend Connecticut Heights apartments.
