I had a great tour with the property manager Chanel! She was incredibly helpful and took the time to answer all of my silly questions. The community was very clean, which is always a huge factor for me. I was also impressed that they were able to fit me in as a walk in and were happy to do so. Chanel’s attitude alone sets this community apart.

I came to tour with a friend and I'll definitely be back when my own lease is up! Chanel was so helpful and knowledgeable. It got us both excited about Cortland. Our experience so far has been great, we really enjoyed our tour, everything was so clean and smelled good. Chanel has been helping my friend and we only have good things to say about her and this apartment. Actually gets me excited to move lol

Nelson Garcia, Cortland’s handyman, is the absolute BEST! He responds rapidly to all service requests fixing and maintaining everything perfectly and he goes above and beyond to make sure everything’s as it should be! Recently he came to solve a wasp issue on our balcony and ended up cleaning off the cobwebs I couldn’t reach on the balcony ceiling too! He does an amazing job keeping the building in working order and he’s always so pleasant and kind. He’s a huge perk to living at the Cortland in the Nations! Shout out to Amirna too! She keeps the building looking so clean and neat. She’s always so bright and early and cheerful! We appreciate how clean and great the building always looks, thank you Amirna!

Best maintenance team! Especially Nelson Garcia! Goes above and beyond! He took care of the things that he noticed weren’t on the original service request and knocked everything out quickly!

It’s a great location with a very responsive staff and friendly service and top notch amenities. The units were very modern and well taken care of, and thus far we are enjoying our residency here. Excellent walkability to restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and the commute to things you would want to do in Nashville is not bad at most times of the day. We like it here! As a side note, I don’t understand the negative reviews about the noise. The train passes by twice a day, maybe, at most, during hours you probably should be awake anyway, and the factory I genuinely thought was someone mowing their lawn a few miles away - it’s just a low hum that is only audible outside, with no other noise occurring. These reviewers should try living somewhere actually loud like Antioch near Bell Road where street racing and constant sirens cause so much noise pollution. It is also relatively safe for Nashville. Nothing compared to areas with track records of higher crime like Antioch or Madison. Really baffling for me. Edit:

I've been living at Cortland at the Nations for a little over a year now, and its been one of the best apartment complexes I've ever called home. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. Any maintenance requests or communications to the office are handled pretty much immediately. I especially love how communicative they are regarding events or any ongoing issues at the complex. One of the most important things to me when finding a place to live is how pet-friendly they are. This place is incredibly pet-friendly. My pup gets so much love here, especially from Michaela at the front office. Seeing her is probably the highlight of his day. Michaela also has been exceptional when handling any issues I've had; I just mention them while my pup is saying hi, and shortly later will get notified of an email from the office or of a maintenance request that has been submitted for me.

I have lived here a little over 2 years and have loved living here! Michaela in the leasing office is great and is always so helpful! Anytime I go down to get packages she is very welcoming and has a smile on her face :)

I’ve had a great experience living here, and a huge part of that is thanks to Michaela in the leasing office. She truly goes above and beyond to make this feel like a community, not just an apartment complex. Michaela consistently plans thoughtful, well-executed resident events that people actually want to attend. It’s clear she puts a lot of care into creating moments that bring neighbors together, and it makes a real difference in the overall experience of living here. She’s also incredibly warm and welcoming on a day-to-day basis. My dogs absolutely adore her—and honestly, so does every dog in the building. It says a lot about her energy that even the pets are excited to see her. It’s rare to come across someone who is both highly professional and genuinely kind, but Michaela is exactly that. She’s a big reason why this place feels like home.

Michaela is one of the best parts of living in this building! First of all, my dogs think she’s their best friend. Although I suspect every dog in the building feels the same way. Michaela has a wonderful way of genuinely making everyone feel at home and welcome. She listens and takes the time to address concerns with care. And she hosts beautiful events that I very much appreciate — and is one of my favorite things about being a Cortland resident!
