  A wonderful environment, spacious living areas and close enough to remain connected to the university community!

  Great place to live, you are close to UD campus and it has really nice amenities (pool tables, golf simulator, and study rooms).

  If you are looking for a peace of mind, beautiful townhomes, and every-day convenience at an INSANELY affordable price, this place is for you! I am seeing these 1-star reviews and they are laughable. I have lived here for four years and the environment is peaceful and beautiful. The location is prime, it is nearby every store and need you could think of. It is right by the highway, near any workplace in Newark. The maintenance team fixes the problem without you even realizing it sometimes. They are in and out. The complaints that I have seen are clearly outlined in the packets they give out. From parking policy, to internet grievances, to move-out charges, everything is explicitly stated. People just don't read. For four years, I have received my packages, I have had laundry units replaced, sinks fixed, leaks remediated, found guest parking for my guests, and survived roommate issues. I don't expect the office to solve every single issue. I work with them and they work with me and we find a resolution. I have seen other residents leave pet fecal out and about, people have made obnoxious noises in the early hours and parking has been overpacked. The office simply has utilized their resources to solve those issues. Those affected are obviously going to condemn those actions. So if you are reading 1-star reviews, take them with a grain of salt because there are people who have not lived here for very long and there are those who have treated others with disrespect but are still met with adequate non-biased service. Briefly, for those searching: I have lived on both sides of the property. I recommend a cottage-styled apartment. You get more privacy and it feels more like your own house. The turf and grills are the best part of the clubhouse. Almost everything is open 24/7 and are first-come-first serve. It is a mini resort for students and working professionals. It is a great environment to be around. You get to network with others in the work force and can get inspired by students reaching their full potential. I am writing this to provide clarity for those who may be conflicted and are merely trying to make the best decision for themselves.

  I am writing this to express my absolute outrage at the complete lack of empathy, common sense, and basic decency demonstrated by the management team at Waverly Apartments. My personal vehicle is currently in the body shop following an accident. As a disabled veteran living here, I expect a basic level of reasonable accommodation and service. Instead, management has decided to treat a temporary emergency as a cash grab. When I requested a temporary parking pass for my rental vehicle while my primary car is being repaired, I was informed that I would have to pay a $75 fee just to park a loaner vehicle in the complex I already pay to live in. Charging a resident nearly a hundred dollars to temporarily park a rental while their car is being repaired is nothing short of predatory greed. Because I refused to submit to this extortionate policy, I was forced to use the guest parking area. As anyone who lives here knows, visitor parking is ridiculously limited and routinely full. On one occasion, when every single guest spot was completely occupied, I had no choice but to park adjacent to the guest area. Rather than showing an ounce of understanding or flexibility for a resident’s temporary rental, management had my vehicle towed. To force a disabled veteran into a non-existent guest parking zone over an arbitrary $75 permit fee for a temporary rental car—and then tow that vehicle when your own visitor parking is full—is disgusting. Your management prioritizes nickel-and-diming residents over basic fairness, customer service, and accommodation. I expect this absurd policy to be reviewed and addressed immediately. -Thank you for the public reply, though it’s disappointing that the accuracy of your explanation doesn't match what your office actually communicated to me in practice. To clear up a few details on my end: I spoke with your office team multiple times regarding this situation. As outlined in the very email update your management sent out last week, the first sticker replacement is free, but subsequent replacements carry a $75 fee—which is precisely the fee your staff demanded I pay for a temporary rental permit. Furthermore, when I originally moved in, I was explicitly advised by staff that if guest parking was ever full, parking adjacent to those spots was acceptable. When guest parking inevitably filled up, I even tried calling your office line for guidance, only to be routed to an after-hours answering service that offered nothing more than a "callback the next morning"—which is obviously useless when facing an active towing risk overnight. While I truly appreciate the generous offer to add my rental vehicle to your "no-tow list" now, that gesture comes a bit late considering I’ve already had to pay $300 to retrieve my towed rental on top of paying the $75 permit fee that your team insisted was required in the first place.
