“The 819 is an awesome place to live. It’s quiet and very nice, but it was hard to pick a house as nice as our apartment. We enjoyed our time there and this is a great place to stay. Matter of fact, my only complaint is nothing! Thanks for providing us with a clean, secure place to start our family. Bill Chalmers, YOU ROCK. LOVE YA’ BROTHER. Thanks again for everything you have done for us. I will recommend The 819 to everybody. You are a Godsend to the community.”

“Simply put, the 819 is home. Not only are there amazing residents, but the up to date unit made it easy to feel comfortable right off the bat. There is nothing like the 819 and … I constantly meet new people here to add to my supportive circle and the security living here can’t be beat. The manager is always quick and receptive to respond so I always feel listened to and valued as a resident. Living adjacent to a golf course is serene and beautiful, leaving amazing views to wake up to. This is the best apartment building I could have ever hoped for and I never want to leave! I am proud to live here.”

– Haley Spencer, OU ‘21

“I attended the ‘sneak peek’ event last Saturday and was so impressed I leased one for someone I know.  One of the on-site managers is even an OU student! The month-to-month rent is between $800-950 for a two-bedroom apartment.  The website is www.The819sla.com  I am so happy Bill and Billy did this for our community!!”
