Leasing
1. What does Individual Leasing
mean? For our student leases, each
resident signs their own lease for their specific bedroom. A
student must be currently enrolled in college or university. So, if
a roommate moves out, the other residents are not responsible for
that person’s rent. Please note that common areas within the
apartments are considered a shared space. For anyone who is not a
student, the shared option is unavailable. This means that an
entire apartment must be rented such as our Studio floor plan, or
a full 2-bedroom, 3-bedroom, or 4-bedroom floor
plan.
2. What are rental installments? Why is my rent not
prorated? A rental installment is a
payment made as part of a series of payments. To simplify the
billing process, the entire sum of the housing contract is divided
into EQUAL installments. Instead of reducing the first installment
and increasing the remaining installments, all installments are
equal. These installments are factored into the start and end dates
of the lease, including proration.
3. How do I pay my rent and when is it due?
Rent is due the first of each month and may be
paid online by ACH, debit, or credit card through the resident
portal. NO CASH ACCEPTED. Convenience fees may be charged for
online payments. Late fees vary by property. Refer to your Housing
Contract for more information.
