Leasing Process Overview

Step 1. Submit Application(s)

The first step is to submit an application. The top of the application has instructions about what to submit along with your application (e.g., the security deposit, a copy of a driver's license or valid ID, etc).  See Terms and Conditions.

• You can pay your Application fees and Security deposit (equal to 1 month's rent)

  online here.

Step 2. Application Reviewed

Once we receive a completed application and application fee, we will run a background check (credit and criminal). Depending on the results of the background check, you may either be approved, approved with the stipulation that you need to have a guarantor sign the lease, or pay an additional deposit upfront which will be applied to your last month's rent , or be rejected. 

• Renter Eligibility: Must be able to meet the required credit score. If you do not meet the required credit score you will need to get a guarantor that can meet the required score to be eligible to rent an apartment.
• Student Eligibility: If the student does not have a credit score there will be an option of paying an additional deposit which will be applied to the last months rent of current lease or acquire a guarantor with the required credit score. Students will need to provide proof of current schooling.
  • Accepted documents for students:
    • Student ID (Digital student IDs may be accepted)
    • Enrollment letter or certification from your school’s Registrar
    • Acceptance letter or email
    • Current class schedule (Future semester schedule is also accepted)
    • Transcript (official or unofficial) or student record
    • Form I-20 (Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant Student Status)
    • F-1 Student Visa

Step 3. Sign Lease

If you are approved and security deposit has been received, we will then electronically send you the lease signature request to your email for your electronic signature. The lease package includes the lease and some state-mandated forms which must be signed. We also ask that you to make a payment for the first month's rent when you return the signed lease package. 

Step 4. Pick up keys and move-in

A few days before your lease is set to start, reach out to your Property Manager to make arrangements for picking up your keys and moving in. You will most likely pick up your keys from the maintenance person at your apartment building (not in the downtown office). If you are arriving after normal office hours we will make arrangements for getting you the keys.
