Maintenance and Repairs Landlord Responsibilities: The landlord covers all general maintenance and standard repairs to keep the property in good condition. Tenant Responsibilities: Tenants are responsible for the cost of repairs for any damage caused by their negligence or misuse. For example, if a tenant breaks a door, puts holes in walls, or damages fixtures (like shower heads), the repair would be the tenant's responsibility. Reporting Issues: Tenants should report maintenance issues or needed repairs immediately. Prompt reporting helps ensure issues are addressed before they worsen. Repair Timeframe: The landlord's goal is to address and resolve all maintenance requests within one month of being notified, whenever possible. Move-In and Move-Out Procedures Inspections: The landlord and tenant will conduct joint inspections during move-in and move-out to document the unit's condition. This helps differentiate normal wear-and-tear from damage. Damage Assessment: After move-out, the landlord will assess the property for any damages beyond normal wear-and-tear within one day. Deposit Return: The remaining security deposit (minus any deductions for repairs beyond normal wear-and-tear) will be returned to the tenant within 30 days after move-out. Notice to Vacate: Tenants must provide at least 90 days' notice in writing before moving out or ending the lease. This advance notice gives the landlord time to prepare and helps make your move-out process smooth. Entry and Access Landlord Entry: The landlord will provide at least 24 hours' notice before entering your unit for any non-emergency reason, such as repairs or routine maintenance. (Emergency situations, like fire or serious water leaks, may require immediate entry without notice for safety.) Pet Policy Allowed Pets: Small pets are welcome in the apartment. We understand pets are part of the family! Pet Fee: If you have an approved pet, there is an additional pet rent of $25 per month. This fee helps cover extra cleaning or wear-and-tear that pets may cause. (Please inquire about any breed or size restrictions for pets.) Application Requirements Background & Credit Check: All applicants undergo a standard credit check and background check as part of the screening process. Income Verification: Please provide your three most recent pay stubs and your employment start date to verify stable income. Rental History: Be prepared to provide a rental history report or references. Good references can help your application. Personal References: We may ask for personal or professional references to get to know you better as a prospective tenant. Occupancy and Conduct No Smoking: Smoking is not allowed anywhere on the property this includes inside the apartment and all common areas. This policy helps maintain a clean, healthy environment for all residents. No Subletting: Subletting the unit or renting it out to others (even on a short-term basis) is not permitted without the landlord's written consent. The lease is only for the tenants named on the lease agreement. Guest Policy: Guests are welcome, but any guest staying more than 30 consecutive days is considered an unauthorized occupant under the lease terms. If you have someone who needs to stay longer, please discuss it with the landlord for approval. Quiet Hours: To ensure a peaceful community, quiet hours are in effect from 9:00 PM to 7:00 AM. During these times, tenants should keep noise to a minimum out of respect for neighbors.
