Convenient Self-Guided Apartment Tours and Contactless Move-In Experience
Self-guided apartment tours available at Venterra communities.
While some restrictions are being lifted as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, we understand it can still be unsettling to be in public, while being respectful of social distancing orders. This fear may cause people to postpone major life decisions, including moving into a new apartment home. Now more than ever, it’s imperative to embrace technology in order to offer a wider variety of convenient touring options, including self-guided apartment tours.
At Venterra, we have you covered. We’re excited to now offer a no-contact, self-guided apartment tour option at many of our communities. Future residents can now use their smart devices to schedule and perform tours of our available apartment homes.
We are also taking extra steps to ensure your safety and the safety of our employees and residents at our apartment communities. Aside from implementing enhanced cleaning protocols, we are using LAST™, a hospital grade disinfectant and antimicrobial coating on our hard surfaces, providing an extra layer of protection for up to 30 days.
If you aren’t interested in a self–guided tour, we are also offering in-person tours with our award-winning customer experience leaders by appointment.
Here’s How to Schedule Your Self-Guided Tour
- Visit Venterraliving.com & select a property
- Select the apartment that you are interested in, and click on Schedule a Tour
- Choose your Guided-Tour option
- You’ll receive a link to complete verification and confirm scheduling details
Once you take a tour and choose an apartment that you have fallen in love with, don’t forget to take advantage of SMARTMOVE, our contact-free way to gain access to and move into your new apartment. Ask your Better Living Consultant for details.
Groceries Delivered to Your Door
It’s no secret that social distancing can be difficult, especially when you’re in public places like grocery stores or home improvement retailers. You may find that you’re constantly passing by another patron or reaching for the same item on the shelf. It’s almost impossible to keep your distance 100% of the time. It can also be difficult to find time to go grocery shopping, as many of us have had to make changes to our normal routines. The good news is, when it comes to shopping, there are services that allow others to do the shopping for us and will deliver to your door. It also may end up saving us money, as it keeps us from browsing the store aisles for items not on our shopping lists.
Several grocery delivery services have been available for the past few years, but their popularity has skyrocketed due to recent events. Many of them have taken extra steps to ensure your safety, such as implementing contactless delivery. While not all of these types of services are available across the US, there are several options available for Venterra residents, including personal shoppers, meal kit deliveries and store delivery. Each service asks for your zip code via website or mobile app, so you can be sure to find the right service for you. As you’re searching, it’s important to take note of each company’s minimum order requirements and delivery fees. It’s also a good idea to check for membership options, as there are perks for joining, such as free delivery services.
Let’s take a look at some available options:
Personal Shoppers
- Instacart – This service allows you to choose a grocery store near you, add items to your cart and pay for your items through their service. Once your order is placed, an Instacart shopper grabs your items and delivers them to your door within a few hours. Be sure to visit their website for a list of available retailers they support, including CVS, PetCo and several grocery chains.
- Shipt – According to their website, Shipt makes online grocery delivery easy, connecting local retailers in your neighborhood with Shipt Shoppers that help you get the things you need. From grocery delivery to household essentials, alcohol, baby items, and more. They even offer same-day delivery.
- UberEats – If you don’t feel like cooking, and the food you’re craving doesn’t offer delivery, UberEats allows you to order from just about any restaurant, and a driver will pick it up and bring it right to your door. Keep in mind, there is a delivery fee for this service.
Meal Kit Delivery
- HelloFresh, BlueApron, HomeChef – These are just a few of the meal kit delivery services that allow you to choose from a wide selection of easy to prepare recipes. They supply the ingredients in one box and ship it to your home. There are several plan options, which allow you to choose the number of meals you want and the day you want them delivered.
Aren’t sure which one to try? Most meal kit companies have great coupons for first-time customers, so it’s easy to try out each one and then decide which one to stick with!
Store Delivery
Walmart Grocery lets you schedule a drop-off when it is most convenient for you at your home, office or other location – with a 100% money back guarantee! The only downside is only available at select Walmart stores. Their website lists all available locations. If delivery isn’t available from your closest Walmart, you can always shop online and schedule a pickup time. This option may not be as convenient, but it still allows you to avoid crowds, as a Walmart employee does the shopping for you and delivers your items to your car. This service is pretty popular, so make sure you plan ahead with your order.
You can also try a few other online retailers that offer delivery.
Amazon Fresh is a great option for people with an existing Amazon Prime membership. You’ll get access to fresh produce, packaged foods, and more. Amazon Fresh partners with local retailers and supermarkets in each city it operates in to fulfill orders. Similar to Walmart Grocery, this isn’t available in all cities, but a quick zip code search will let you know if it’s an option for you.
ThriveMarket carries more than 6,000 organic and non-GMO products to fit several diets or lifestyles. They ship anywhere in the US. While you can’t purchase produce or meat, they still offer plenty of pantry items, beauty and bath products, supplements and cleaning products. As an added bonus, they use carbon-neutral delivery, 100% recyclable packaging and zero-waste warehouses, and, if you become a member, you’re helping to support low-income families.
A similar option is Boxed, which allows you to purchase popular pantry, cleaning and beauty items in bulk. Plus, they have great deals on items each week. Buying in bulk can help you save money in the long run, so if you have the space to store bulk items, this is a great option to check out, especially for those who don’t want to pay membership fees to wholesale membership clubs, like Costco.
These are just some of the many options available to you. Check out these, or others not listed, for great delivery options that fit your needs.

As apartment community managers reassess cleaning protocols to ensure the health and safety of our residents, the adaptation of intensive disinfecting and cleaning methods remains a high priority.

Residents Cash Out on Venterra’s $10K Giveaway
Almost 4,000 residents recently participated in Venterra’s $10K Giveaway, earning them a spot in the drawing for $1,000 in rent credit. Ten lucky residents were selected and thrilled by the news that rent would be one less thing to worry about in the month ahead.
To be eligible, residents were to set up Auto-Pay via the resident portal and successfully pay their rent by June 3. The resident portal, known as the Venterra SMARTHUB™, puts everything residents need at their fingertips. Residents can pay rent, submit maintenance requests, voice concerns, and stay updated all in one central location. It’s free and easy for residents to join and set up a recurring or one-time payment.
With Venterra’s leasing offices temporarily closed or on reduced staff due to the Coronavirus pandemic, paying online provides residents a safe, contact-free way to pay rent. Although many of our leasing offices have since opened, The Venterra SMARTHUB™ remains the fastest and most convenient way to pay.
The giveaway contest began June 1, 2020 and ran through midnight June 3, 2020. Residents who were already set up on Auto–Pay through The Venterra SMARTHUB™ were automatically entered into the contest. Our Regional Managers were also on standby to assist residents with signing up for Auto-Pay.
Stephanie Burns, an eight-year veteran at Venterra, has a reputation for WOWing residents through Venterra’s WOW Matters program where “We care more. We listen better.” is a way of life. With Venterra’s WOW Matters program, Experience Leaders know how to listen for even the unspoken needs of residents and will go out of their way to personalize their experiences at Venterra.
“I’m so surprised and shocked but happy.” Jonathan at Cobblestone (Fleming Island, FL)
“WOW! That is such great news!” Siva at Estancia at Morningstar (The Colony, TX)
The drawing for the winners of the giveaway took place on Friday, June 3. Winners were publicly announced on Venterra’s Facebook page as well as all 60 community pages on Tuesday, June 9, 2020.
Venterra continues to look for ways to support and encourage residents and looks forward to coming up with more creative ideas for future resident contests soon!

The Metropolitan, Louisville’s Top Rated Apartments
When looking for an apartment home, there are so many things to consider — style, feel, amenities, location, customer service (to name a few). To some people, they want all of the bells and whistles when it comes to amenities and apartment features, and they find the community that fits those needs. And while that is great, what is often missing or overlooked is the service component. They were so blinded by everything the apartment community has that they failed to look at the people caring for your home and needs.
When you’re shopping for an apartment home, you will be swept off your feet. You’ll be catered to and treated like you’re the best person on the planet. You’ll get so excited and ask, “When can I move in?!” You’ll be so blinded by all of the luxury and allure, that you may not remember to ask about the service or how you’ll be treated once you’re a resident.
At The Metropolitan there are no tricks. What you see when you walk in the door is what you get. We will WOW you and make your life easier by offering great conveniences like SMARTLEASING (where you can actually apply to see if you’re qualified before putting any money down), SMARTHUB (Mobile Payments, Mobile Service Request Management, Mobile Feedback), and more. And you’re not the only resident we care about, we also love our furry residents and will make yours feel right at home whether inside or outside in their own bark park. In fact, we allow up to 3 pets per apartment home! Who else can say that?
There are many choices in Louisville when it comes to finding the perfect apartment home to fit your needs. And whether you choose to live at The Metropolitan or not, we want you to find your home. The Metropolitan offers a combination of classic architecture and modern interiors with awesome interior updates like wood-like flooring, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, washers and dryers in every home, and updated fixtures. And we have many more improvements in the works!
And while our awesome neighbors have great amenities and many of the bells and whistles that scream luxury, their service unfortunately doesn’t come close to touching ours. Our goal is to provide a world-class living experience, and we can proudly say that we are Top Rated on ApartmentRatings.com! And what’s even better is that 100% of Venterra’s properties are Top Rated.
Who else can claim that accomplishment?
And in case you’re wondering, this is how our competitors’ scores compare to ours on Apartment Ratings (as of April 2019).
- Metropolitan – 80%
- Enclave at Breckinridge – 53%
- McArthur Park – 0%
- Breckinridge Square – 78%
- Jamestown Apts – 48%
With our stellar on-site leasing, management, and maintenance teams we will do our best to ensure your needs are met. And if for some reason we mess up, we will make it right. At the end of the day, your happiness is our #1 priority. And don’t worry, we won’t take you on a dream date and never call you back. In fact if you do fall for the luxury without service, we’ll be right there at your side when you’re ready to breakup and find your new home.
Take it from some of our friends who already know the difference with The Metropolitan.
“From the quality of the apartment to the friendly and helpful staff, this apartment complex is a GREAT choice.” – Victoria W., March 2019
“The new management took over in October and you can see a difference already. The office is very professional and reliable. The maintainability staff are very professional and quick. The said that are more improvements on the way, that will make of this community and excellent place to live.” – Verified Resident, ApartmentRatings.com, January 2019
“I’ve lived at the Metropolitan since it was re-modeled. There have been several management and ownership changes. It was immediately apparent that Venterra was different. The maintenance staff are always out working, in the grounds or in apartments. The grounds are meticulous, as are any common areas. The area is well-lot and parking is never a problem. It’s very pet friendly-lots of dog waste stations scattered throughout the complex. My favorite is the new dog park!! It’s very sturdy and well constructed. The apt office has dog water bowls and treats. The staff are very friendly and available to help. I was planning to move in February, but I stayed because of the management.” – Cammie S., March 2019

Cure Your Stay at Home Blues with Fur-Baby Love
Find a pet friendly apartment
Over the last few weeks, many of us have been mandated to stay home to help ease the spread of coronavirus. Family gatherings have become Facetime and Skype calls, work has shifted to a 100% remote environment, and social events have been either postponed or canceled. The inability to see family, friends and even coworkers during this time can result in feelings of isolation and loneliness. Finding moments of joy during challenging times is the best way to combat your quarantine blues – and adding a furry friend to your family can provide companionship and enhance those moments! There are several benefits to having a pet, including making us happier, and keeping us in better shape. Dogs have loyal, loving and lively personalities, offering playful spirits that make them great companions. Our feline friends make purrfect companions as well! Their comforting purrs and gentle cuddles melt the stresses of the day away, making them the ideal roommate in our pet friendly apartments. Who wouldn’t want a friend like that?
According to the Humane Society of the United States, now is a great time to adopt a pet to help reduce the potential strain on shelters. Due to the effects of COVID-19, there are increased opportunities to help individuals who are currently facing hardships and unable to care for their pet. According to the World Health Organization, there is no supporting evidence that companion animals, such as dogs or cats, can be infected with the coronavirus – making the decision to foster an animal that much easier. Fosters can serve as caretakers for animals who are in need of being nursed back to health or simply unable to adapt to shelter life. For those having to make the tough decision to give their pets up for adoption, animal shelters, such as The Humane Society, make sure those animals are placed in loving homes where they can receive the care they need.
If you’ve been thinking about adding another pet to your family, Venterra has your back! We offer pet friendly apartments that allow up to three pets per apartment home. In hopes of helping you and your new furry friend transition into apartment living during the COVID-19 pandemic, Venterra is waiving all pet deposits and reducing the pet fee by 50%*! To start your search for your new companion, check with your local animal rescues and shelters or visit petfinder.com. Not ready to add a new pet to your home but still want to help? Check with your local shelter or rescue to learn more about how you can support.
