We MUST receive full security deposit before we take your bedroom off the market. It can be dropped off in person or mailed to us if it is paid as check or money order. All paperwork is due within 5 days of your application.

You can pay the security deposit at the same time you apply through the tenant web access portal.
What is your parking policy?
We provide a limited number of off-street parking spaces for residents. Unfortunately, due to space constraints, we are unable to guarantee each resident will get a space. Parking is available on a first-come first-served basis and is limited to one registered vehicle per Tenant.
Which utilities do residents pay?
Wi-Fi & trash are included in the resident’s monthly installment. Residents are responsible for water & sewer, and electricity.
Moving In
When can a resident move in?
Check in is during normal office hours only. Office hours are Monday-Friday 9AM to 5PM. We are unable to keep the office open late. Prior to check in, rent must be paid in full and we must have proof of Renter’s Insurance per the terms of the lease.
A valid ID is required for each resident/roommate to check in with the office. We will not be able to check in someone who is not on the lease, including parents. A guarantor is not a leaseholder.
**Each resident is responsible for reviewing the Policies and Procedures Manual in the Move In Packet**
