I recently moved in and couldn’t be happier with the help Chase provided me. It was a smooth move in and he made everything extremely easy. Location is great and apartment is nice. Lots of square footage for the price point. Overall 10/10.

Lived at AMLI downtown in Austin for a year and have had such a great experience! Couple of highlights: you cannot beat the location, even the smaller units feel large with the great layouts (and high ceilings), AMLI perks and discounts at places in the area, the maintenance team fixes everything so quickly, elevators and amenities are never overcrowded, surprisingly always parking spaces. Have heard not so great reviews on buildings that people are paying much more to live in downtown and really encourage people to consider AMLI! In addition to the above, the outdoor space right in downtown is great (even smaller balconies have plenty of space for a couple of chairs and a table) and people in the building are always friendly! To top it off the staff in the office is always available and ready to answer questions.
