Since the beginning of looking into Verve the staff has been amazing. I have never been in a place that genuinely cares about the people who live in their building. Always events going on and very professional when issues or questions arise. Would highly recommend

I love living at Verve! The staff is always very friendly and willing to help with anything. Maintenance requests are dealt with quickly and the amenities are top notch! Also, they do great weekly events where we get to eat free food and mingle with neighbors! What's not to love?!

Verve

December 12, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
Verve has been an awesome place to live. We love that it's very dog friendly with quite a bit of green space and is located right next to the river with miles and miles of walking trails! Building is very clean, friendly staff, well decorated, and updated.

Would Recommend

December 11, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
Very kind community. Within walking distance to everything the East Village has to offer. Close to downtown and other attractions.

Would recommend The Verve - Brandon

December 6, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
Would recommend the Verve, property management does a great job with interacting with tenants, the apartments are spacious with great finishes, and the apartment will share the pool amenity when construction is done on Velocity across the street.

Great place!

December 4, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com

Great building, amenities and location!

December 4, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
I love living at the Verve, it is a very nice building with great amenities. I love the location, close to downtown but not too close to the hustle and bustle. Definitely would recommend to a friend.

Verve

December 4, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
Perfect location because it is so close to tons of restaurants, bars, and attractions. The apartment and amenities in the building are fantastic and always clean. The staff and maintenance team are always very helpful and quick. Great place to live. Definitely recommend.

Amazing place to live!

December 3, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
The Verve apartments are a great place to live. The apartments themselves are sleek, modern, and have a great view of downtown. They provide a fitness room, social events once a week, a game room, and a TV room. The indoor parking is a plus. The walls are thick, which makes it a quiet place to live.

Great place to live!

December 3, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
The Verve community is a great place to live. The design and floor plans of the units are exceptional. The location is very convenient to all Des Moines has to offer. The building and common areas are well maintained.
