Cortland South End

The management team is not helpful. The maintenance team is understaffed and slow to help, even when urgent situations. The apartment complex is always cluttered and dirty due to constant renovations.

Location due to walkability is good. Units are nice. Sadly I don't feel safe after my car was broken into and damaged while parked in the locked garage on the 3rd floor. Leasing was no help as they said there was no camera footage at all in the whole building. They offered no support and I was very disappointed in how the situation was handled.

Area is walkable but between neighbors and everything Cortland is doing, it's a loud and inconvenient construction zone. They also change policies frequently so you might end up with a towed car because they changed the way you're supposed to register them or a late rent because they change the dates of the month that the rental portal is open. Any review before October 2023 is about the previous owners.

Don't live here. Constant renovations. The hot tub does not work. No community events.

Cortland South End has the best staff! Both the leasing office team members and maintenance team are incredible!

Great value. Good price for the location and amenities

Wonderful place to live, and spectacular location!!! We just moved in last month and tbh couldn’t be happier with our decision to lease. Just like any building, there will always be one or two minor things that can be fixed. In our case, it’s the dishwasher (quite old and in its last months of life, but still works) and the windows (moderately rotted at the frames). Maintenance already has replacements for the windows in the works. That being said, Cortland just bought the building and is investing a bunch of money in capital improvements, which is likely to include the dishwashers. Now I have to say, it’s pretty impressive that Cortland is so aware of issues like these, even though they are pretty darn minor. You can def take comfort in the fact that this is a high-quality place to live.

The management company is awesome! They are always so helpful and they know me by name. I feel very appreciated and feel like Spectrum really is a community.

I have greatly enjoyed my experience living at Spectrum South End. The location can’t be beat and I have always had any issue taken care of quickly!

Everything has been beyond amazing so far, the atmosphere here is great. I could not be any happier to live in this community. So so so so perfect!

Spectrum is a safe apartment with great amenities in the best location. I wish they would be more consistent with cleaning amenities upkeep. The place has a bad spider issue in the stairwells, windows, and balconies that need to be pressure washed and treated more often. My apartment itself has never had bugs inside which is a plus. For the price, some more overall care to keep up with the other apartment complexes is needed. I will say, for the price these are the largest floor plans you will find in south end.

Spectrum is in a great area that is very lively with lots to do. Everyone is very friendly and the facilities are awesome. Would recommend to anyone moving to Charlotte!

Very clean and lots of room. Staff has made my move in perfect. Spectrum south end has everything you can ever need and always there to answer any questions you have

Great location and dog park. Amenities could be better. Maintenance and the staff are great! Very responsive to maintenance requests. Friendly staff who get things done.

Helpful staff, clean amenities, great location. Spectrum South end has a ton to offer for anyone looking to move to the Charlotte area. Would recommend to anyone.

Clean. Well-constructed. Courteous neighbors. Cute dogs everywhere. My wife and I are very happy here (with our dog of course.) The neighborhood is fun. The apartment is quiet and has great light.

This is coming up on my third year living here. Love it. Perfect location and management/maintenance is always on top of it! Hosted events are always fun too :)

We moved in quickly and the staff was great to help us. We appreciated all their assistance and we would recommend joining this community!!!

After a great search, I finally found a gem in the south end! The apartment has a gym where in I spend an hour daily. The coffee is really amazing & it gets me going as I start my day. The leasing office consultants are great & are always there to help you out in case you need anything. Overall it has been a great experience so far ??

Spectrum South End is a wonderful apartment complex located in a great area. You really cannot beat the value! The apartment complex is kept very clean and management is quick to let residents know of any maintenance that will be taking place. I feel very lucky to have gotten a spot here!

I've lived at Spectrum for 3 years now and am happy with my apartment and with the community here.

I really love it here, the location, the rent rates, everything is great

The maintenance people and community managers are really friendly at Spectrum South End. If you want to live in this neighborhood I think this is the best location.

Spectrum is incredible! It is a great value for the location, amenities, friendly staff, and beautiful apartments. Absolutely love it here!

One of the best communities here in Charlotte, both the residents and management staff members are super friendly and they make you feel at home. It is located in Southend which is the best place if you want to live a city-kind of life. With the new updates to the building and amenities coming up, I am super excited and am looking forward to it when done.

Spectrum is a great place to live. It is conveniently close to everything in south end. The front office and maintenance crew is always super responsive and everyone couldnt be more friendly!

Spectrum South End is in a really good location. The building is overall nice but when compared to other apartments in the neighborhood that are a few years newer it feels run down. This is not a quiet building. If you dont stay out late on Fridays and Saturdays the noise from the courtyards can be unpleasant.

Location is PERFECT! Walking distance from breweries, restaurants, bars, stores, anything! And the rail trail is right outside.

It's an extremely overpriced roof over your head.

Broken appliances left to right, awful handling of amenities, cost of rent is sky high. That sums it up!

Greatly enjoy the residential experience at Spectrum. Friendly, helpful, and caring staff. SpectrumSouthEnd is a wonderful active area that provides ease of transportation to the uptown Charlotte via rail, roads, walk, and bike. SpectrumSE's hardwood floors and appliances are modern as compared to my old complex. I am yet to explore the entire community and what all they have to offer but, post lockdown. I am really excited about it :)

Love this place! Such great and supportive staff, and the location is great. Right next to Sycamore and close to light rail stop. Would recommend!

I like the community because of the neighbors. The laundry could be updated, showers could be updated. Also everything is brown... just not very clean look! Neighbors and dog park make the whole community what it is. So fun getting to know neighbors there

I think my move in experience overall was very easy and everyone was very helpful. I moved in without seeing the place because I came from another state. They took the time to take a video of the layout I was interested in and even let me mail in canned goods so that I could have some fees waived. I communicated with everyone through email, and they were all very responsive.

The staff has always been helpful with anything I need. They are all competent and kind - best apartment office staff I have ever encountered!

Great staff! Kate Reiff specifically has been exceptionally helpful since even looking at apartments at Spectrum. Thanks for making the residents feel welcomed!

Love the spacious floor plans and the price is great for the location.

Ive lived in Spectrum South End for about a year and a half, and I am very happy with my decision. The staff members are super friendly and helpful, and the location is amazing!

Everyone here is always so helpful and nice. Any service requests I've had have been resolved within 24 hours. They also have new community events every month which are always great.

Ive largely enjoyed my 2 years at Spectrum. I think its a good price to live in a great location, the apartments themselves are nice, and the staff has been responsive and helpful anytime Ive needed them. While there are plenty of great people living in the community, you do have your standard Southend guys trying to recreate the frat house, and I believe theres really lax enforcement of pet policies specifically with regards to noise and adhering to using leashes in the community. If youre a young socially active couple, youll be in great company here as that tends to be the majority of residents. If youre someone looking for a quiet night in on a weekend, this may not be the place for you. Ive mostly enjoyed my time here, but its admittedly not for everyone.

I absolutely love this apartment complex! Every apartment has its pros and cons but honestly, Spectrum doesnt have any cons for me! The biggest inconvenience is that the elevator is pretty slow but it doesnt really have that much impact on us because we usually take the stairs and theres so many stairwells. The new coffee machine is a major plus too because its actually really good and its saving me money getting coffee before work. Amazing price for the location (especially since its next to a great sushi place and the biggest hot spot (sycamore) in south end) and I love all the amenities.

Were very happy at Spectrum South End. The apartments are super modern and spacious, the staff is awesome and the amenities and location are even better.

We moved in in august and the power has gone out several times (not your fault), the gate/bar has been down which is a safety concern as far as security. Were new to a big city so security is important to us. The dog spa which was advertised is not open. The general appearance of the stair cases/halls is dirty.

Spectrum South Wnd is a great place to live. Wonderful community with caring staff.

Words cant describe just how grateful we are to have found Spectrum South End. Beyond the fact that we live in the most convenient location, we absolutely love our home as well as the incredible team that works here. The administrative team and the maintenance crew are incredibly professional, efficient and go above and beyond to make you feel like family. Thank you for all that you do not only for us but for the rest of the residents here at Spectrum South End!

The complex is in a terrific location, the apartments are very nice and quiet, and the dog park is amazing.

Greatly enjoy the residential experience at Spectrum. Friendly, helpful, caring staff. Southend is an active area, spectrum is available in a great location.

I have moved from here and so did every one that I knew who lived here and were up for renewal. I think this place is poorly manages and too expensive for the few advantages there are. With how booming with other apartment complexes Southend is, I think it would be wise for Spectrum to to improve.
