I stopped by the leasing office at Reafield Village, formerly knows as Archstone Reafield, to check on availability and prices.

Pluses:
. Rent for 1-bedroom units after the special is very reasonable for that area of Charlotte. ($635.00 for the 785 Square Feet and $620.00 for the 865 Square Feet plus den). I liked the 1-bedroom/1 bath/den more.
. The apartment complex sits on high and low ground which makes it very attractive.
. The pools are very attractive because they sit on higher ground.
. The tennis court, playground for kids, etc.
. Erica was one of the nicest leasing consultants I have ever met. She was knowledgeable and answered all my questions. They are lucky to have her.

Minuses:
. The yellow exterior shows dirt easily.
. The master bedroom is too small.
. The units are 20 years old.
. The floors squeak.
. The Formica look alike tile in some of the dining room, kitchen and even the W/D closet/utility room is hideous.
. All the appliances are circa 1980.
. Max lease term is 15 months. I would guess that rent would then increase by 4% to 8% upon renewal.
