This team is great. From our first experience with Phil during the leasing process to the promptness of Vicky responding to building issues, the team is on it!

We've lived here for almost a year and I've waited to give my review until I'd been here long enough to give an honest review.

PROS: The staff and residents MAKE this community! The large balcony was the deciding factor on renting our apartment. I love the location and the maintenance team is SUPER FAST in getting things done! The apartments themselves are larger than most of the units in the area.

The CONS: There's no dog park. The parking deck is 2 levels that don't connect & the parking... spaces are small if you have a larger car like an SUV or truck. There are 2 elevators and 1 of them is locked down for movers, repair, trash collection, etc. at least once a week. The employees of the Senior Center park on the alley that leads to one of the parking garages which doesn't leave enough room for incoming & outgoing traffic simultaneously. I'm not sure how the Aura can fix it since the alley is a public road & not under the Aura's control so I don't fault them for it but it's a problem.

Perfect location

I toured here in 2023 when they originally opened and fell in love with the location. When I finally moved to N.C. I knew I wanted to live at Aura 509 because of the proximity to the farmers market at Durham Centeal Park, I also wanted to be in walking distance to my office but I didn’t want to be in a noisy area. This location fit the bill. It has been a full year of living here and I am very happy. The people in the office are so friendly and I love the coffee bar.

We are fairly satisfied with our experience. Had a recent issue with our fire alarm going off without stopping, but maintenance was able to come and fix the issue.

It's wonderful living here—the location is especially delightful. Lately, there have been fewer events. As a lover of free snacks, I'm hopeful they will have a few more in coming months!
