Security Deposit Return
Once the apartment is inspected, it may take up to 30 days to receive your security deposit per the lease agreement. Most security deposits are received within 2 weeks.
Any cleaning or repairs needed will be deducted from your deposit at $50/hour plus materials. For example, 3 hours of cleaning and repairing walls would result in a $150 deduction.
Apartment Viewings
In the weeks leading up to your move-out, management will schedule apartment viewings for prospective tenants. These are typically held on Saturdays around noon. You will receive notice ahead of time and do not need to be present during the viewing if you prefer not to be.
