Standard Lease Period: Our standard lease period is approximately 11.5 months. The lease agreement reflects the total rent amount divided by 12 equal installments. 

A guarantor must apply with any resident seeking to pay month by month. Regardless if the student is the one paying, we must have a second person to guarantee that it will be paid. A resident will not need a guarantor if and only if, they agree to pay the total rent amount for the entire 11.5 month term, upfront. 

Guarantor Requirements:

A guarantor must make at least $65,000 annually, if married a total of $110,000 combined. Proof of income is required but no credit check is ran. You may not be your own guarantor.

Guarantors who are not U.S. citizens: 

You must present a passport with a stamped US Visa and one of the following items

• I-94 Form
• Individual Taxpayer identification tax number   
• One of the following work visa’s – the work visa would need to cover the term of the lease (i) H-1B, (ii) L-1A, (iii) L-1B, (iv) O-1, (v) E-1 and E-2, (vi) TN, (vii) E-3, (viii) seasonal agricultural work visas, (ix) EB-1 First Preference, (x) EB-2 Second Preference, and (xi) EB-3
