Tangent

We moved into Tangent Apartments in 2021, when Shea Properties was the management company. They provided a level of service you would expect for the price, as the building and grounds were well-kept and the staff addressed any noise or maintenance concerns within a timely manner.

Greystar took over this location in November 2025, without prior notice to current residents, except for placing a flimsy piece of paper in our door. This did not go over well, considering Greystar's well-earned... "reputation". I will be the first to admit that I was a bit hostile with the Greystar employees when they got here but after things simmered down, I tried to give them a chance.

While cosmetic changes have been made, including new interior paint and a refinished pool, there are several quality of life issues that continue to persist.

Ongoing issues here include excessive trash (especially out back), poor landscaping, broken rear exit doors, noisy HVAC units, unreliable amenities (pool and hot tub), and inconsistent parking enforcement (entitled residents frequently park in visitor and delivery parking with no real consequences).

Management is reactive rather than proactive, and often appears indifferent to resident concerns despite the high cost of living here. Shea management would walk the grounds every day to identify and address potential issues; it worked great, and I think Greystar should implement this policy.

Positives? Well, the maintenance guys (Talon and Ezra) are great when needed. The views and the location are good. The AC is ice cold. As someone who had to live in their car for awhile in their 20's, this place is better than that.

Based on our experience, the property has significantly deteriorated under Greystar (as expected, but still a shame), and we would encourage anyone who values quality management, cleanliness, and value to consider other options.

This will be an easy move-out for us once our lease is up. Read More

Overall, it’s a good place to live as mentioned in what I like about Tangent in a prior questionnaire.

It’s 10’s across the board for me. Professionalism 10, Courtesy 10, Urgency to everything with a resident, Respectfulness 10, 10 Empathy

Tangent has amazing units, a beautiful office, and friendly staff. Maintenance is timely and attentive, but the same can't be said for the front office and their responses to resident concerns.

Ordinarily, I might list off several "annoyances" we've had at Tangent (there are many), but I won't do that because this review isn't about our annoyances - these happen at every single complex, especially newer ones. That being said, typically when a resident raises a concern or legitimate complaint,... management is quick to jump on it in a timely manner.

We are gathered here today to discuss: GATES.

Our main issue is the gates to the community, as it relates to lower floor residents or those physically located closer to any of the 3 gates. These gates break CONSTANTLY. One inch of snow will freeze the gates either shut or open, which is ridiculous purely because of the fact that it's Colorado and it snows just a lil bit here. The gates being locked one way or another isn't a huge deal - but guess what?

The gates BEEP, incredibly loudly, a total of SIX times with every enterance or exit, and yes, you can hear them from inside your 2/3rd floor apartment with all windows/doors closed. So, when these gates lock up, we are blessed enough to hear constant, non-stop, incessant beeping all through the night as if someone is entering and exiting over and over until the gates magically start working again.

I've written to management about this, to be met with a good ol fashioned "We'll look into it". After responding and expressing my concern for this to be more of a priority, I was met with 2 weeks worth of silence. I'll adjust this review when I feel that I've actually been heard by management, with a decent solution in mind to allowing me and my partner to live comfortably here.

Otherwise it's good, move in. Just buy some earmuffs. Read More
