Vue 180

Vue180 is a wonderful place to live. The management is PERFECT. They will take care of any requests or issues you have immediately. The location is great… walking distance to downtown and Newport. The river view is great, and the apartments and facilities (gym, club house, etc.) are very clean and nice.

I absolutely love living here. The staff accommodates any request you might have. One of the best views of downtown Cincinnati.

The prior ownership, CIG Properties, offered about $ 200 a month in rent concessions/​reductions while the building was up for sale in July of 2014. I assume that was in an effort to keep occupancy up while it was on the market. When that deal fell through they somehow «lost» all of those leases and then claimed they never existed. The on site manager, Jennifer Shepherd, specifically denied ever seeing the leases. Ironically, when the building was later (November of 2014) sold to another company, which took over 1÷1÷2015, the leases magically reappeared… with Jennifer Shepherd’s signature on them!!! I retract my compliments about the former office staff being «nice». I think the issue is more with CIG properties but ultimately it is on the individual employee to be honest.
The new owners and management seem to be much more committed to customer service and cleanliness. The primary issue is still THE NOISE… and unfortunately, the new management doesn’t seem to be in any hurry to remedy it by evicting noisy tenants or correcting the floor to ceiling insulation issues… my advice… go elsewhere, you can do A LOT better for the money… sadly for the new owners, they have a lot to overcome since they have purchased a business that was saddled with a bad reputation by CIG Properties. The new team gets one additional star for their efforts but until the noise is dealt with that’s about as high as I’m willing to go.

Unfortunately as one of the first residents of vue 180 all I could recommend to future renters, is save your money and look for a different place to live. Our stay here throughout the year, has been plagued with nothing but problems. Our wooden floors, buckled time and time again. After being replaced for a second time, despite our willingness to open our door at early hours of the morning for repairmen, nothing was done to compensate our inconvenience. A simple thank you, would have been appreciated. Furthermore, water spread from our entrance, into the bedroom, leaving the carpet soaked and numerous items in the closet left soaking. all I heard from management was contact your renters insurance. It was highly disappointing. Beyond the problems of physical damage, due to poor construction… noise is an entirely separate issue. If you plan on getting a decent night of sleep, please do so, with a prayer… the walls are paper thin and you will hear every footstep that every resident makes. The only way to describe it, is to imagine that every person living here must be an avid player of Dance dance revolution. I wish future residents the best and for them to make a conscious decision before signing the dotted line. I hope management makes the necessary changes to make this place successful. At the current rate, I highly doubt it.

More information I have tried to work with management to no avail they will not back off from reducing the penalty they would not even consider negotiating the termination fee. It took me days to even get corp office to call me this place has turn out to be a dump here on some pics from this weekend will post more. The elevators are dirty and still have covers on the walls and one does not even have a floor. Please don’t rent here they can not be allowed to treat tenants this is a RIP OFF.
