    It was difficult trying to get the move in process started because we weren’t sent the welcome letter which tells us next steps. Also the bellhop to help with moving in was no where to be found so it was a lot of trips. But the building is beautiful and the people are nice.

    My experience has been awesome so far! Everyone on staff is so kind and willing to help you out. Moving in was the easiest move in experience I’ve ever had. My apartment is modern, clean, and luxurious. Also the amenities within the building are extraordinary, I was genuinely in shock when I first saw the gym!

    The staff was unhelpful throughout the entire lease signing and move in process. I went in sight unseen and it was very difficult to even receive a video of the unit without having to contact the leasing team multiple times.

    I love living here. It’s quiet, beautiful, clean, and everything is friendly and professional. It’s brand new and you can tell they put a lot of effort into the design. My unit was designed so well, with built in storage and cabinets everywhere. I barely need any other furniture which is great. Very pet friendly, great gym, great rooftop (no pool but that doesn’t bother me), and many lounging areas. It also feels VERY safe!

    From the very first visit to Balsa, I was struck by how beautiful and thoughtfully designed the building is. Its modern architecture, elegant finishes, and inviting atmosphere make it stand out immediately. But beyond the aesthetics, what truly made this experience memorable was the outstanding service I received during the leasing process. I want to give full credit and appreciation to Marcus, who guided me through every step with professionalism, patience, and genuine care. Marcus went above ...
    and beyond to ensure I felt confident and informed throughout the entire journey—from the initial tour to signing the lease and settling in. His attention to detail and friendly approach made what can often be a stressful process feel seamless and even enjoyable. If you're considering Balsa as your next home, I wholeheartedly recommend it—not just for the stunning building, but for the exceptional team behind it. Huge thanks to Marcus for being such a fantastic support!
