Is there a way to waive the late rent fees?
We are not able to waive the late rent fees. We ensure that our late fee policy follows the terms of Fair Housing Laws. This means we have to ensure that all tenants are treated equally. Rent is due on the 1st of each month.
What do I do if I can't pay my rent on time?
Call our office immediately. Failure to contact us could result in an eviction.
Can I have a roommate?
Yes, but each roommate must receive approval. You can do this by using the rental application. Once it’s filled out, you must pay the application fee. From there, wait for the results of the screening process. Note that is you skip any of these steps it would be considered a violation of the lease and could result in termination.
What situations are considered emergencies?
Emergencies are classified as situations that could cause major property damage and/ or threaten human lives. For example, a burst pipe that floods the residence or a malfunctioning heater during a cold season are considered emergencies.
What are the policies regarding pets?
The pet policies will depend on the terms listed in each lease agreement. When you already have a pet or you wish to get an additional one, please submit a request. We process every request separately based on the specific lease terms.

No, doing so would violate the terms of the lease agreement. It is possible to have new locks installed, but this must be approved by DRP.
Can staff and managers enter my home if I'm not there?
If there is a need to enter the property, we will notify you at least 24 hours in advance. Landlords may enter the home for emergency repairs. We prefer to carry out regular maintenance while the tenant is home.
