Questions? We Got Answers
Here are a few of our most commonly asked questions. We believe in transparency, and are here to help you whenever you need.
A. Yes, we require all residents to have a renter’s liability insurance. You can enroll in a policy with your chosen provider and provide proof of coverage. If you do not provide proof of insurance, a monthly fee of $10.95 will be applied for enrollment in our Resident Liability Insurance Program. This program meets our insurance requirements but does not cover your personal belongings. Please contact our office for more information.
A. Yes, we offer a roommate matching program at no cost if you don’t have a roommate in mind. On your application, you will fill out a questionnaire to help our team match you with a compatible roommate.
A. Rent includes water, sewer, trash, and Wi-Fi. Only the electricity will be split among your roommates and charged to your Resident Portal account each month. The cost of the electric bill will vary based on usage.
A. Yes, furry friends are welcome! They’re roommates, too. Simply add your pet’s information to your application to register them.
