Lease Terms
Most leases will be one year long. More importantly, they will almost ALWAYS end on April 30th or May 31st.
Security Deposits
The security deposit is typically 1 & 1/2 months rent, if you have good credit and no pets.
Pets
If we decide to accept a pet there will be $50 per month increase in rent and there may be an additional 1/2 months security deposit.
Application Process
This usually takes about 4 days. In order to secure an apartment you must submit these 4 things:
- A filled out application, for each tenant who will occupy the apartment. This can be downloaded from the website (see below).
- A $40 application fee to pay for background / credit checking for each applicant, as cash or a check to the street name for your building (i.e. Wood LLC).
- A photo copy of the most recent Pay Stub and Driver's License for each applicant.
-
A separate check made out to Hanging Out, LLC for the deposit to secure the apartment. This is normally equal to the security deposit.
This can not be a personal check, it must be a bank check, money order or certified check.
The deposit will be refunded if your application is rejected or applied to your security deposit if you are accepted.
You will be notified as soon as we know your status. On the move in date, we will require the first month's rent. We will then give you the keys.
