REO Flats

I moved into an MFTE one-bedroom apartment at REO Flats in October 2024 and have had a very positive experience overall. I initially planned to move after my 12-month lease to save on rent, but I’ve since decided to stay and transfer into a studio — that’s how much I’ve enjoyed living here. The highlight of my experience has been the outstanding support from Savannah, the Assistant Property Manager. From the very beginning, when I first applied for my one-bedroom apartment, Savannah was extremely communicative and helpful, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. More recently, when I decided to transfer to a more affordable studio, Savannah once again went above and beyond to assist me quickly and with genuine care. The building itself is clean, modern, and well-maintained. The small fitness room is perfect for quick workouts, and the rooftop deck offers beautiful views of the downtown Seattle skyline. Common areas are generally well-kept, and maintenance requests are handled promptly. There are occasional issues with people sleeping in the stairwell that connects to the street, but management handles these situations professionally and without any major incidents. Trash rooms can sometimes get a bit full when the chutes are locked, but overall, the property is well-cared for and feels like a comfortable, safe place to live. I’d definitely recommend REO Flats to anyone looking for a great apartment experience in Seattle, especially for those applying through the MFTE program.

I used live here, and wanted to leave a review for one of the maintenance guys, Bradley. On top of being thorough with his work, he was just the nicest person. He was mindful of being clean while he was there, and he even came back to check up on the issue before he left for the day. Every apartment building seriously needs a maintenance guy like Brad!
