    I had a wonderful experience with RiverCity Apartments, especially thanks to Graciela and Jasmine. They were incredibly helpful throughout our entire application process. Always quick to respond, extremely patient, and truly went above and beyond to make sure my roommates and I were able to get approved and signed. We’re so grateful for all the support and care they gave us. Thank you so much, Graciela and Jasmine!

    They were courteous efficient and helpful. The leasing agent Ms Bickerstaff assured me that the transition would go smooth and answered all my questions and allowed me to see the apartment twice! This has never happened before!

    Did a tour here with Jasmine and it was great. The building is older but the renovated units are great especially the price for the amount of space and location. Great amenities as well especially the fitness center. Jasmine was great throughout the tour.
