This property came up on my home searches and I decided to check it out due to the vibe it presents. I spoke with Jazzmen one of the leasing agents and she gave me a beautiful tour! She explained how the process works and made sure I understood the pricing and application process. The property is absolutely beautiful and everyone in the office is very polite and professional. Jazzmen has given me the best experience I have received on any apartment tour! I highly recommend Copper Ridge to anyone who is looking to be on the high end of Albuquerque. Cant wait to start my new journey here!!
