Rent can be paid online through the Resident Portal via e-check (free) or credit/debit card (processing fees apply). E-Money Order payments can also be made at many retailers, such as Wal-Mart. You can also pay by personal check or money order sent via USPS, although the payment would need to arrive prior to the due date. We do not accept cash.
Do I need renter’s insurance?
We require that all tenants carry personal liability renter's insurance. Residents may also opt for personal property protection to cover their personal property in the event of fire, flood or other loss issues. The policies are fairly inexpensive and worth the small investment. We have partnered with E-Renter Plan for pre-approved low cost insurance, though you may use any insurance company you choose.

We do not allow subleasing. Any adult residing in the apartment must go through the application and screening process and be added to the lease agreement.
How do I add/remove another person to my lease agreement?
To add or remove a person to your lease agreement, the unit will need to be re-qualified to ensure that rent will be paid. Please note that new additions to lease agreements may need to formally apply and complete a screening and background check. If we are unable to re-qualify the unit, we may not be able to make any changes to the lease.
What if I need to move before the end of my lease?
Life happens, and we understand plans can change. If you need to end your lease early, contact our office to review your lease terms — you may be subject to a lease-break fee or additional charges, depending on the terms of your lease.
Can I transfer to another apartment or another one of your properties?
If you need to transfer, either because you need more space or less space – or just need something different, we can help you. Contact a leasing specialist for current availability and to review our transfer policy.
