I have lived at Vara since the building was opened in 2013. I still love living here, and I do think management tries very hard to keep us safe and happy inside our walls. The mess going on outside our building in the streets, well that feeling goes away as soon as you walk inside the front doors. I appreciate that.

Greystar buildings (I had toured quite a few before settling) are well maintained and kept clean by some of the most personable and attentive staff members. Makes me look forward to coming home.
