Furnished residents must bring a valid photo ID.

What happens if I need to break my lease early?

We try to be as flexible as possible, as we know many of our residents are in transition. Furnished stays are a 30-day minimum. After 30 days, you only need to provide a 15-day notice-to-vacate.

For our long-term apartment renters, we offer a lease breakage addendum with a two-month buyout. We can send you this addendum prior to lease signing, so you can review the terms to help you make the best decision possible.

What if I want to add a roommate to the lease?

All occupants 18 years or older would need to apply as you did. Once approved, they can be added to the lease.

Why are long-term apartment renters charged a move-in fee?

We charge a one-time, move-in fee in lieu of collecting a security deposit. The move-in fee enables you to make the apartment your own. You can paint, hang a TV or pictures on the wall, and you do not need to restore the apartment or make repairs when you move out. If you renew your lease, you do not have to pay this fee again.
