Rent is due on the 1st of each month and considered late on the 5th after 5:00 p.m. We give those few extra days to you just in case the mail is running late, but remember, if we receive your rent check on the 6th, it’s not one day late it’s six days late.

They are for everyone’s protection. We’re looking for little problems that can grow into big issues if not caught in time. Good examples of little problems would be wood rot or a slow leak under a sink that if not repaired can cause more extensive damage over time.
Treat it as if it were your own: Keep it clean, don’t abuse the equipment, replace expendable items such as light bulbs, batteries, filters, fuses etc as needed, keep drains running freely, maintain the lawn and gutters, keep the tubs and showers caulked, report needed repairs promptly and be there for the appointment, keep the house rid of all pests, do not let pipes freeze, if animals are permitted – keep them under control, repair damage caused by guests or family members and remove any decorating you’ve done when you vacate.
We will contact you approximately 60 days from the end of your lease to ask your intentions. Just let us know, in writing, if you wish to stay. We then go to the owner for his/her permission to continue renting the property.
You’ll get your deposit back by returning the property to us in the condition you received it. We will send you a move-out sheet with instructions. Deposits are usually returned within 30 days, depending on the jurisdiction the property is located at.
Do you keep keys in the office in case we lock ourselves out?
No. You’ll need to call a locksmith. We recommend you get an extra set made to keep on hand. We do have extra keys for emergencies but we cannot check them out to you.
Not without the owners permission. If the owner does approve a sublet situation a complete rental application must be submitted, processed and approved on any potential roommate.
Can I cancel the utilities if I move out prior to my lease expiration?
No. You are responsible for all utilities until the end of your lease. You will be charged for any damage that might occur to the property caused by the lack of this necessity.
