What is an individual lease?

An individual lease means independence. When you lease an apartment at The Connector, you’ll sign your own lease agreement. That means that you will be responsible for your portion of the rent, and nobody else’s. The rent you pay pertains to your bedroom and your share of the total cost of the unit. No more worrying about anybody’s finances but your own!

What is the advantage of an individual lease?

With an individual lease, also called by the bedroom lease, you are responsible for your own monthly rent and the regular upkeep of your part of the apartment. Unlike conventional joint leases, you are not responsible for any delinquent amounts owed by your roommates. This means if a roommate moves out early or misses a payment, all other residents are not responsible for making up the difference.

What is a rental installment?

The monthly rental installment is your monthly payment for rent. They do not prorate rent, rather you are charged a total rent amount for the lease term divided into equal installments. Rent is due on the 1st of each month.

What is included in the rental installment?

Your monthly rental installment includes: furniture, high speed internet, pest control and trash. Any other fees such as parking, insurance, water, electricity, etc. will be billed to your account separately.

What utilities are included with rent?

When you pay rent at The Connector, you’re getting more than just an apartment. You’re getting access to a wealth of amenities unlike anything else in Atlanta, Georgia. You’re getting complimentary utilities like trash and blazing-fast WiFi. But most of all, you’re joining a community of explorers and adventurers. The only utility you will be required to pay is your water and electricity usage. The property will make the payment for you based on your unit’s usage and the bill your account for that charge each month along with the $6 utility fee.

Will I need a cosigner for my lease?

At The Connector, they don’t require cosigners for their leases. Instead, they require guarantors. 

What is a guarantor?

Guarantors are a third party outside of a tenant and a landlord that ensure the timely, full payment of rent. Usually, these are financially stable individuals close to The Connector residents.

Will I need a guarantor to lease an apartment?

Unless your income is greater than 3.0 times the rental installment or can qualify through their Leap Program, you will need a guarantor. A guarantor must meet the income requirements and credit qualifications. The guarantor is financially responsible and liable for the terms of the lease and rental installments.

Do you have a roommate matching service?

Yes, they do. Part of the application packet is a Roommate Matching Form that you will be required to complete. This form will ask you questions about your social habits, study habits, and per preferences to help them match you with residents that indicate similar preferences. Please be honest on your Roommate Matching Form.

Can I request specific roommates or units?

Yes, you can list your preferred roommates on the Roommate Matching Form with your application. All roommates must list each other for them to confirm that all requests are mutual. You can list your floor plan preference on your application and they will do their best to place you in a floor plan that meets your requests. All requests are taken in order by the date your lease was signed and is based on availability.

Do apartments come furnished?

Yes! Apartments are fully furnished from the day you move in. Each Living room comes complete with a sofa, coffee table, SMART TV, and media stand.

Do I need renters insurance?

As a condition of our lease, they require all residents to carry building protection insurance ($100,000) for damage to the landlord’s property during the term of their lease. The good news is they take the hassle off your plate through an automatic Building Protection Fee enrollment. You pay the monthly premium together with rent but the fee does not cover your personal belongings. The policy does not cover any of your personal belongings, additional living expenses, or liability arising out of bodily injury or property damage to any third party. If you require any of this coverage, you should contact an insurance agent or insurance company of your choice and sign up for a renter’s insurance policy.
