Anyone who downvotes this place is crazy. Jessica is a phenomenal property manager, and takes extreme care in handling any issues in and around the building. Realize when you are shopping for any apt., there are negative reviews from bad tenants. This place had there fair share when I first moved in. I’m impressed by the fact that I’ve seen those tenants replaced by ones that Ive grown to consider neighbors! If that isn’t top notch property management, I don’t know what is. Great prices, great management, and technology to make your life easier. Check them out if you like the location or clicked on their website. Thank you Derby Slabtown and Jessica for making renting easier :)

I moved in at the beginning of the month literally everybody that I have met in this complex is extremely nice personable and easy to talk to. I love how there’s trash chutes on the floor so you literally just drop your trash into the chute. Nice amenities I have a corner unit so I have a beautiful view of downtown. I love how modern everything is the white walls the gray floors the stainless steel appliances really good community really nice inside. Safe building, I literally have no complaints the front office has been really cool everything And answer you pretty quickly if you have questions and try to help you as best as they can. I love how close this apartment is to everything lots of food places grocery stores I can literally walk everywhere. Update 6 months later and still love my apartment. I have made friends and enjoy where I live. When I go into my apartment I don’t notice anyone I feel safe and secluded in my space. I’m really grateful for Derby Slabtown and the owner of the building for always being professional and keeping the building clean, safe and secure. Maintenance is quick to answer friendly and helpful. Still no complaints. My kids love it here this is our home.
