Crossing at Chauncey HIll, west-lafayette-in

You could not ask for a worse neighbor than Granite Student Living. Can't imagine the vile conditions inside of their properties. This what they look like on the outside. Rotting trash strewn everywhere, every week. Abandoned vehicles. Imagine having your garage open to this biohazard every week. Imagine sending your kid into this cesspool. Stay away!!! Edit Sept 1, 2026: despite contacting them multiple times, to the emails they listed below, trash continues to be everywhere but the trash bins. Seems they don't care at all. Imagine if you lived in there (shudder), and you needed them to fix something?

I originally lived here because the prices were reasonable. However, once you move out, be prepared for unexpected charges. My roommates and I were charged over $900 in cleaning fees despite leaving the apartment in the same condition we received it, aside from normal wear and tear. We requested proof of the charges, especially the $240 fee for “20 bags worth of cleaning.” The pictures they provided showed only a few small items left behind that could easily fit into a single bag. The charges felt completely unreasonable, and the lack of fairness in handling the situation was extremely disappointing. I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere and paying a little more for a better living experience.

Sidney was my guide to everything wonderful about Granite. Most people that I've interacted with who work at leasing offices for apartments leave me feeling almost guilty for taking up their time and have made me feel like they resent having to spend time with me showing me around an apartment. But Sidney was so dang friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, and communication skills are ON POINT. I know exactly what to expect when I move in and she was so clear on next steps etc in the process. Couldn't have asked for a better Granite tour guide. Granite got lucky with her!

My son picked up his keys and went to move in, only to discover black mold and water damage everywhere. The unit smelled terrible. The switch in the bathroom was completely rusted. No caulk in shower, mold obviously behind the tile, every cabinet was dented, weather stripping on every window was dry rotted with water damage and mold. Cobwebs everywhere. The fan for hvac is covered in dust and dirt and hair, it's clearly never been maintained. They charge a $1,000 cleaning fee for 2 people. What exactly is that fee being used for??? My son went to the leasing office to let them know and was told he needed to email operations and it would take a couple days most likely to hear back. He already paid rent on the first, not allowed to move in till the 5th. At this point he will owe next rent before he even gets into the apartment. Considering this is a $1600 a month apartment.. I'm floored with how disgusting it is. We'll contact operations and update if an appropriate resolution is made in timely manner.

Overall, I had a really positive experience with Granite. Over the past couple of weeks, they helped me explore both on-campus and off-campus housing options with a friend. They were always quick to respond, very friendly, and easy to work with throughout the process. I was planning to sign a lease on a house, but ended up having to back out due to a change in my roommate situation. They were very understanding and even refunded my application fee. I really appreciated their professionalism and would definitely recommend them!
