Adding people to the lease: We do not add people to the lease during the lease term except for very special circumstances.  If there is someone who you might want to have live with you in the next few months, they need to apply with you and be on the lease from the start or wait for your renewal. 

​

Visitors may not be at the apartment when you are not there and the number of visitors at any time is restricted to allowable occupancy numbers for your unit.  This is for the safety of all of our tenants and is grounds for immediate eviction.

 

Credit and Background:

-Background checks and credit checks can only be bypassed with very good reason and at minimum a double deposit depending on situation.

-We check to see if you have evictions, missed payments, lots of debt, legal issues, violent crime or a background likely to impact our property.

​

Holding:  With payment of 1/2 the security deposit, we can hold the apartment for up to two weeks and have the deposit become part of the security deposit.  Before move in the rest of the deposit and first months rent must be paid.  If holding longer then two weeks, additional fee that does not go into the security deposit is required.  If you hold the apartment and do not move in, you sacrifice the holding deposit.

Full deposit and first month's rent required before move in.
