Sunset Electric Apartments

Sunset Electric has genuinely been one of my favorite buildings I’ve lived in. Between the location and proximity to everything you could ever need, the views of Cal Anderson and the skyline, and the friendly attentive building management, there’s so much to appreciate. Alina has been my go to gal for everything with quick repairs, questions about local events, and even just a quick fun chat. If you’re a plant parent, this place is unbeatable. There’s always ample light and the summers are beyond beautiful. While my time is coming to an end after three fun years, I will miss my spot dearly.

I recently moved into this apartment, and I have to say the place is amazing I love the view and people , but the real highlight of the entire experience was working with Alina. She is not only knowledgeable and professional, but also incredibly personable. From the very first tour, she made me feel comfortable, welcomed, and genuinely cared for. Alina was always quick to respond, patient with all my questions, and went above and beyond to make the leasing process smooth and stress-free. She took the time to get to know me and made the whole experience feel more like working with a friend than just another leasing agent. If you’re thinking about moving here, you’re in great hands. Alina made this place feel like home before I even moved in.

Great units and location with friendly staff as well, specifically Alina. From the very first moment I met her, Alina exuded a warm and genuine energy that immediately set her apart. Throughout my entire experience, Alina has consistently been approachable and incredibly willing to help with any issues I've encountered. Whether it was a minor problem or a more significant concern, she always made herself available. I've found her to be incredibly efficient, often going above and beyond to ensure that any problem is tackled. Her down-to-earth personality makes every interaction a pleasant one. She genuinely cares about the well-being of the residents and the community. Her professionalism, combined with her genuine warmth and dedication, enhances the living environment. Any future resident would be incredibly fortunate to have her.

Love living at sunset electric! Great location in the heart of capt hill! Also the leasing agent (Alina) is an absolute gem! Super sweet and will add a smile to your day.

Sunset Electric has been a great place to call home for the past 4 years. The leasing team is great. Alina and Betsy are friendly, attentive, and prompt. They love dogs and making friends with the residents. The units are great, perfect for a city dweller. The building is in a great location for food, fun, sports, and more. The only thing I would ask for is a dog run so residents don't always have to go outside on busy sidewalks and streets. Other than that, very dog-friendly! Check out this beautiful building on Capitol Hill!

I moved here from San Francisco on a very short timeline, looking for a new place. I met with Alina, and she gave me an amazing tour, answering all my questions! Sunset Electric has been amazing! A Very modern apartment. The front staff has been very attentive and accommodating to any concerns I have. Looking forward to my future move here!

From the showing to the move-in, Alina and Betsy were top notch professionals and super helpful. My son had to find an apartment virtually for a move from NYC to Seattle for his job. Yes, it was done virtually. The showing, the lease signing, the renters insurance and the move. Not ever having been to Seattle and not knowing a soul. If I could keep adding stars, I would. The hospitality, the advice, the constant reassurances, the explaining and re-explaining, the patience, but above all, the friendliness that a New Yorker is bred to suspect is a scam, is for real here. Everyone we met in this building was friendly. The apartments are lovely and so important, your packages and mail are SAFE. People can’t just walk into the building. Biometric facial recognition to get in. We ordered dozens of boxes with furniture and household items and nothing was ever taken. Not one single thing. The area is lovely. Can’t complain. Yes there are homeless and addicts at night but I’ve never seen such harmless people compared to NYC, I feel safe. Wonderful restaurants everywhere!

Do Not Move to Sunset Electric
. This place is an absolute nightmare. If you’re considering living here, run the other way. Between the constant water issues, outrageous billing, and terrible management, it’s been a disaster from the start. Hot Water Problems:
I moved in May 2024, and since August, the hot water has been a joke. For the past four months, it’s been off and on—mostly off. Now it’s freezing outside, and guess what? Still no hot water. Management claims to fix it, but two weeks later, it’s broken again. They’ve only bothered to send two emails about this whole mess since August. Totally unacceptable. Water Meter Issues:
If you’re looking at Unit 305, think again. You’ll be paying for water you’re not even using. Apparently, there’s a leak somewhere, but instead of fixing it, you’ll get stuck with the bill. I filed a claim with Conservice, and surprise, I’ve heard nothing back. Management has confirmed there’s no leak in my unit but insists I’m somehow using 1,600 gallons of water a month—when everyone else is using 400. That’s insane. I rarely even use my dishwasher or do laundry. This feels like a scam. I wish i can get out of my lease and just move now. Front Door Lock Issues:
When the locks were first installed they gave us all codes that were just our apartment numbers without telling us. It was completely unsafe. I knew all my neighbors door codes and they never consented to me having it. Everyone bought little security cameras to place in their units since everyone was upset. Took like a month for them to come around and give us all new codes. I still. use my camera cause i dont trust the office people. On top of that initial issue you are not allowed to use the Yale app. It wasnt installed with that feature so i cant give access to anyone and if i give my code out then i have to go downstairs to change it everytime. DONT BOTHER GOING TO REO FLATS APTS on 14th. They are getting the same locks and are managed by betsy who also runs Sunset Electric. Bad Management:
The management here is the worst I’ve ever dealt with. At first, I tried to be friendly, but now I’m over it. Betsy and Alina spend more time gossiping about other residents than actually doing their jobs. My water bill? Ignored. Sewer bill? Ignored. Hot water? Still nonexistent. Don’t even get me started on parking. They claim there’s a “list” for the garage spots, but there isn’t. Alena—who moved in after me—got a spot right away while I’ve been waiting for months. Meanwhile, I’m stuck street parking and walking half a mile to my car every time I need it. This place is mismanaged, overpriced (no amenities except location), and absolutely not worth the headache. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere. Oh and all these other reviews are fake. You kinda know everyone here since its so small and ive never seen any of these people.
