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.

What is a guarantor?

A guarantor is an individual that signs a lease agreement along with a renter promising to uphold the lease agreement in the event a renter defaults on their financial obligations.

Will I need a guarantor for my lease?

If I don’t have a guarantor, how can I still qualify to live here?
