Apartments in Bellingham, WA

“I had the privilege of five years in Bellingham and give thanks to Daylight for making it absolutely seamless:) move-in procedure was breeze and online portal made rental payments and maintenance requests effortless. Notices of upcoming events, building-wide inspections, or any other pertinent information was emailed out weeks in advance of the date (no surprises) to make for easy scheduling. They are a massive housing provider in the area and the phones can be slammed at times, but emails are responded to quickly and is the best way to get a hold of someone if you need to. If ever I were to move back to this wonderful town, Daylight would be my first choice!”

“I've lived here with my husband a few years now, and it has been a breath of fresh air! The other apartments I've lived in have had management that don't care, and putting in maintenance requests was like pulling teeth.
Karen, the manager, is kind and fair. She knows the tenants here well, and sees us as people instead of numbers, even starting an annual summer BBQ for the apartment complex a few years ago.
Her husband, Mike, heads maintenance, and is also incredibly pleasant to work with, and chat with if you happen to run into him.
Maintenance requests have always been handled promptly, without any fuss or fight. There's also clean and convenient dog potty patches outside for your fur babies.
I'd say there's only two minor cons;
-You can now ONLY pay rent online, no cashier's checks or otherwise.
-If you have kids, there is no playground.

In short, this is an absolutely wonderful place to live :)”

“The tour that I had was great. The building is well taken care of. The gym was nice, a little small but a great variety of workout machines and it wasn’t crowded. The building also felt very safe and secure. The kitchen with the mini market was very nice also very clean. The views were also great. The sky lounge and roof deck were my favorite part. The rooms are good sizes. Also the building has bike storage. The laundry room was a little messy but it was a busy laundry day. I liked that there were a lot of washers and dryers. Everyone there was also very nice.”

“I loved my time at Sky Vue Apartments! Laiah goes above and beyond to help out with anything she can. It has been fantastic living here, and we will very much miss having such a fantastic team. I lived in a one bedroom unit, and it was a great amount of space with a very roomy deck. The hallways and stairs were always clean, and the outside area was maintained. Never had an issue finding a parking spot, and it’s a super short walk to the bus stop and the coffee stand. Everyone I met was super nice, and I made lot of friends. Super great location, I highly recommend!”

“Pros:
- Relatively close to WCC, The Guide Meridian Bellis Fair and bus stops.
- Online portal for rental payment and maintenance requests
- Rent increases have been relatively minor compared to other rental properties
-Staff and owners go outside of the box to help residents from time to time

Cons
- Lack of parking (Depending on which building you’re in, this gets worse during renovations)
- Proximity to unhoused encampments, etc. (Had to ask someone to not sleep in our parking garage)
- Occasional car break-ins
- Neighbors sometimes, people pull some real petty nonsense.

Overall, good for what it is if you have the right expectations going in. Fill out your entry form correctly, know your rights as a renter and keep cameras in your apartment/car if you’re able. It’s decent for the most part.”

“Rent is pretty cheap here, and management and office staff are super friendly and helpful! The rooms are decently sized, however the main space is on the small size! It's perfect for students or people who are a bit more on the introverted side!”
