Residents Miss Urbane
Posted by Eric Brown | Filed under Reviews
Eric!
Natalie and I miss Urbane so much – hopefully we don’t have to stay in Cincinnati too long, and perhaps can return to Michigan next year. How is everything going? I guess you never know how much you enjoy Michigan until you actually leave…
This store-opening experience has been amazing, and if we have the opportunity to come back, we will certainly give you and Kim a call – we miss our hardwood floors!
I hope everything is going well for you guys, and wish you a wonderful weekend!
-Jason

Hi Kim,
Please feel free to post this feedback on your website.
My time here at Urbane has been great. It is a great residence and great maintenance service. Usually, it takes about 1 day to handle even a minor issue. The VIP card has been great. There is no waiting at Blackfinn and get a discount on my dry cleaning. I am sad to move out and hope that I may lease again in the future.
Best,
Adam Spungen

When You Have Out of Town Guests
Posted by Eric Brown | Filed under Uncategorized
We understand that sometimes, when you’re out of town guests visit, there just may not be enough room at your apartment. Well, We have you covered. You, your family and or friends are welcome to use one of the Urbane Guest Suites, FREE!
Here is one Urbane Residents Experience when his Mom visited. You can see the direct thread of this conversation from facebook too
Thanks for the feedback Travis, Glad it all worked out well. A Happy Residents Mom is important! Enjoy your weekend!
Travis Brevard Hey, it was great. Easy, simple and chic (and awesome in that it’s complementary), which made it some kind of overkill for my mother. I’m sure I’ll be taking advantage of this in the future. Keep up the coolness! Thanks again
Urbane Apts Hey Travis, Just checking in to see how the Urbane Suite worked out for you last weekend, Let us know your experience when you can,
Enjoy the Weekend!

Urbane Residents Rate Their Experience
Posted by Eric Brown | Filed under Uncategorized
We started Urbane Apartments in August of 2003, with our first community, Urbane on Maple. Frankly, we had little idea what the heck we were doing, but we were passionate about our product and we set out to build a Brand. In the beginning, we dropped the ball a lot, and we sometimes still do, but we have worked hard to improve by focusing on the Residents Experience.
By that, at the end of the day, really all that matters is this; Would You Recommend Urbane to a Friend. We hope so.
We have attached below a Ratings Survey that is generated monthly through our Resident Portal on the Urbane Lobby, marked Resident Hub, and is an aggregate total as voted by Urbane Residents that live in Urbane Apartments. We cannot alter the data, or dates or filter. It is what it is, or, It Is What Urbane Residents have voted.

Do Not Live In An Urbane Apt!
Posted by Eric Brown | Filed under Reviews
Overall Rating: 3 out of 5
Original review posted on ApartmentRatings.com by Anonymous, April 9, 2009.
900 a month for 700 sq feet is a lot of money in this area. It is even more when the heat is out for 2 weeks straight, 4 separate times!!! They will lie to you about everything. I did some freelance work for them and they paid me 4 months late, and the check bounced! They are having major fiance issues. With that they will treat there tenets like —-. They owe me 2430$. Do expect to see your security deposit back or explanation of why you did not get it back. They are a shady company… I know of 4 buildings are infested with rats! Call any pest control office in Royal Oak, MI and they will tell you the company is overwhelmed with rats. They just do not take care of the buildings, just do cosmetic work.
