Credit Reporting
Get the credit you deserve for paying rent. For a small monthly fee, your on-time rent payments can be reported to all 3 major credit bureaus. Start today by adding on this service when you apply or reach out to our leasing team directly to add it to your lease!
Renters Insurance
Our community requires all residents to have tenant liability coverage. To make this easy, we automatically enroll you in our liability insurance program. If you prefer, you're welcome to provide proof of your own third-party policy, and our insurance charge will be removed from your account.
Flexible Payments
Flex is a better way to pay rent. For a small monthly fee, Flex covers your monthly rent on the first, and you pay it back at your own pace throughout the month.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is individual leasing?
Individual Leasing, also called “by the bedroom leasing”, means that you are only responsible for your bedroom, bathroom, and shared common area. If another roommate decides to skip, sublet/lease-takeover, or damage the apartment in any way they are liable for the rent and damages in their individual space, unlike in joint leases.
Do I need renter’s insurance?
When you sign your lease, you are automatically enrolled in our group landlord liability insurance program—no additional steps are required on your part! However, you’re welcome to purchase your own third-party renter’s insurance policy if you’d like protection for your belongings.
Do you offer roommate matching?
We offer a comprehensive roommate matching form that our dedicated staff thoroughly evaluates to find the most compatible roommates.
