Corazon

The leasing staff at Corazon have all been absolutely amazing through my whole application process! Jeremy, Aubrey, and Hannah have all be so friendly and personable! I toured with Hannah while I was visiting last November and she was incredibly knowledgeable about the community and surrounding area! Moving from out of state is always stressful, but the team at Corazon has been such a joy to work with that I know I'm in good hands!

Disclaimer at end. Corazon itself (which is what I am reviewing)- amazing, wonderful, perfect location, 0 problems in the 2 years I lived there. It truly made my Austin experience a million times better. Specifically Aubrey from the front office is an angel and magician and has saved me (getting packages when I’m not in town, fast responder to any issues, goes out of her way to get to know you). I started living at Corazon when she was a leasing agent (she was the one to sell me on my apartment) and have seen her work ethic push her to well deserved promotions. You can tell she cares about Corazon and is proud of her work. Also loved community manager (I believe her name is Angie). Clean apartments and very spacious. AMAZING location (there’s an exit onto E. 6th and it’s a 10 minute walk to downtown). Across the street from both a Whole Foods and Target. Easy walk to Caesar Chavez and more of the East Side. 5 minute walk to Jewboy Sliders. 10-15 minute walk to Nickel City and that area. 20 minute walk to Desnudo/Veracruz Tacos. Very vibrant community with lots of cool and awesome people. Amazing community events as well. Random discounts to local stores/restaurants. Routine pest control and maintenance responded to in usually 24 hours or less-thank you to Audrey and the amazing maintenance people. It’s easy for guests to come visit you because there is free parking for guests. Occasionally the closest elevator to you might break down but there are 2 others down the hallway since it’s a small building. I cannot recommend living here enough truly but I would be remiss if I did not explain the move out. Move in was awesome and renewing the lease was the easiest ever. However, after move out, Greystar, the company who owns Corazon, claimed absolutely unfair “move out charges”. After months of disputing and asking for evidence, they finally cleared my balance. I am definitely grateful that was cleared and this issue was settled but I do want to warn people this may be a problem in the future. During move out, I would take copious amounts of pictures as evidence that there was nothing besides the usual wear of someone living in an apartment.

Overall, Corazon is the best place that I've lived in Austin so far. I want to specifically highlight the amazing staff. Hannah helped a lot with the contract and the entire move-in process. Ercilia prepared the apartment and made it feel brand new. Charlie did an amazing job handling rare maintenance requests promptly, responsibly, and with a great attitude.
