UNCW Parents Beware

If you are looking for affordable housing near campus, avoid this place. It is affordable and a great location, but it is also very dirty. The units are infested with bugs and even though they offer free pest control they never really go away. The stairwells are filthy and there is trash everywhere. The manager is nice but very corporate - nothing changes. Almost none of my child's neighbors were actually college students and many were evicted.

Disgusting

One star is too much, PLEASE do your research and look elsewhere for reviews. The unit they provided me was filthy. We took pictures, videos, even walked up to the unit with the manager who looked me in the eye and told me it was a beautiful, clean apartment with a dead roach between her feet. Roaches everywhere. Thick, black mold in the toilet tanks. Consulted a former leasing manager acquaintance who stated the amount of roaches/droppings/exoskeletons we found in the 4 hours spent in the... apartment points to an infestation. Not something that could be dealt with by spraying. After paying someone to move me in and back out the next day, paying for a hotel to stay in over the weekend until the leasing office opened (we were told by emergency maintenance that the issue would be “dealt with” during business hours), Wilmington Commons FINALLY agreed to return my deposit about a month later following daily emails that were rarely answered. It was like pulling teeth. And although I never actually inhabited the unit (who could??), I was still forced to pay the remainder of the month’s rent. ASK TO SEE THE UNIT YOU’LL BE MOVING INTO. The model is gorgeous. Don’t fall for it like I did.

I live in a one bedroom apartment and I think it’s a great complex! I have had issues with bugs but it hasn’t been a huge problem. The staff and management are great and take care of my concerns!

One of the best options for College Students

CEV Wilmington is a great starting-apartment for students looking for a location that is both affordable and close to UNCW. I lived in a one-man apartment for about a year, and it was great to finally have my own space. The living room and kitchen spaces were nice, and the bedroom was excellent. Laundry and trash are a bit of a hassle to take care of, but it's nothing too crazy.

It's not a luxury apartment by any means, but it's not meant to be. It's a place to rest, eat, do homework in a...
quiet space, etc. If you're looking for an affordable, first-time apartment, I would recommend CEV Wilmington.

PS: After reading the past negative-reviews, I can say that most of the problems have been fixed in one way or another.
