415 Flats Apartments

I moved in two years ago and love it here. I walk everywhere. Walk to the Uptown YMCA, Harris Teeter, Whole Foods, Panthers / Hornets games, restaurants (Alexander Michaels is my favorite). Great location, good price, I don’t see myself going anywhere for at least another year, pretty much because of the neighborhood. Place is on the older side but it has a charm about it that fits in to the fourth ward.

I’ve loved living here and being right in Uptown. Making the decision to move in two years ago has allowed me to save money for my first house while still being right in the heart of Charlotte. Yeah the building is old and doesn’t have all the crazy bells and whistles like a pool or rooftop but for the price you really can’t beat it. Haven’t had any major issues, expect for when my ice stopped working but I put in a maintenance request and management took care of it right away. Overall it’s a... great place to start your career in Charlotte, especially if you’re on a budget but don’t want to sacrifice location. Read More

One Saturday night my apartment was robbed while I was in it, including my purse with my keys. The management at the time was very responsive, and the owner himself came early Sunday morning to change the locks. Arrived before the cops did. But they’re long gone. Since then, the complex has been sold 3 times, with constant management changes (7 in 10 years).

In general, the buildings are old and need significant maintenance that the revolving managers ignore like tenants’ calls and e-mails.... There was a serious fire in Building B last year that you can smell whenever the heat comes on because the smoke-filled ductwork hasn’t been cleaned since, or probably ever. Cosmetic updates have included painting the stairwells to make them even darker, and penning off a small dog area that became an open toilet. For this, they raised rent +40%.

The complex is unusual for the area in its age and lack of amenities. Nearby apartments asking comparable rents have things like secure entryways and pools. They likely have rats and roaches too, but not where residents can see them. It’s unclear now why someone would choose 415 over one of those buildings. I loved this apartment, though. The neighborhood is wonderful, there’s private outdoor space, and it was affordable for Uptown. Affordable for a reason. Read More

The renovations they made were amazing! You really wouldn't think they were the same apartments 2 years ago! The new management is really hands on and great to work with!

I have been here for years because the location is so convenient and I like the coziness and feel of the smaller community. There were issues in the past, but new management and ownership are terrific. They are responsive and welcoming. The dog park and smart tech are nice to have as someone who works from home. Nothing but positive things to say about 415.
