Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long
is the lease term?
A: All the leases will be 12 month leases.
Q: Do we have
to have 4 people for the four bedrooms or can we have a different number of tenants for the bedrooms?
A: The MAXIMUM number of people that can occupy the property is 5. You can always have less than the maximum but not more than the maximum per the City of Newark.
Q: Is the deposit per person or per property?
A: The deposit is per property.
Q: Do you lease by the bedroom or by the property?
A: We lease
by the property only. What that means to our tenants is that everyone on the lease will be jointly liable for the lease.

Q: How far are you from campus?

Q: Can we sublease our apartment for the summer?
A: We do not allow subleasing, so you will be held responsible for those months.
Q: Can we each send separate checks for our rental?
A: No, as per
all of our lease agreements each group of tenants must submit one check each month for rent.
Q: What are
the utility bills like?
A: Our tenants pay their utility bills directly so it is very difficult for us to say what your
average utility may be. The best
way to find out is to use our "Helpful Links" page and contact the various companies regarding the specific properties, they should be able to
give you an annual average.
Q: Do I get a late charge if my rent is on time but my roommate has not contributed his/her portion of the rent?
A: Each property is assessed a late fee as a unit. If one person in a group of tenants is late the entire group is considered to be late.
