Tenant FAQs
Answers to your frequently asked questions
-
Can you hold a place before I apply?
Properties are typically rented on a first-come, first-served basis with a completed application and required fees. We recommend applying as soon as possible to secure a rental. -
Do I pay first month’s rent and last month’s rent with my security deposit?
No, we do not charge last month’s rent. Move-in costs vary by property. Tenants are required to pay the first month’s rent or prorated rent and a security deposit before moving in. If an animal is approved, the non refundable pet fee will also be due before move-in. -
How old do you have to be to apply?
Applicants must be of legal age to enter into a lease agreement, which is typically 18 years or older. -
Is the deposit refundable?
Yes, security deposits are generally refundable, provided there is no damage beyond normal wear and tear and all lease terms are met. Deductions may apply for unpaid rent, damages, or cleaning fees. -
You have a property I want to rent. How do I apply?
Applications are submitted online. A completed application, application fee, and necessary documentation (such as proof of income and identification) are required. Each person over the age of 18 years or older is required to submit a separate application using their own email address, regardless if they have income or not. -

Who is responsible for paying for repairs & maintenance requests?
The property management company handles routine maintenance and repairs, but tenants may be responsible for damages caused by negligence or misuse. All maintenance requests should be submitted promptly through your online tenant portal. Maintenance requests are addressed Monday through Friday during business hours. Maintenance requests submitted on Friday, the weekend or Major holidays will be addressed the following business day.
