Yes. The property’s policy is included here for family occupants with children under the age of eighteen (18) who are domiciled with (i) at least one parent, legal guardian, or another person having legal custody of the child under the age of eighteen, or (ii) the designee of such parent or other person having such custody, with written permission of such parent or other person. For family households with children, all household members aged eighteen (18) or older must (A) complete an application and (B) sign the lease as a resident. For family households with children under eighteen (18), at least two (2) people will be permitted to occupy a single bedroom. If a family household with children under the age of eighteen (18) requires additional occupancy per bedroom, additional occupants may be allowed on a case-by-case basis based on factors including, but not limited to, the size of the bedroom(s) and the unit, age of the children, the configuration of the unit, any physical limitations of the property, and local occupancy codes. If the child occupant reaches eighteen (18) years of age during the lease term, the lease will be allowed to complete its term, but renewal will only be offered in compliance with the occupancy policy as stated. Child occupants under twenty-four (24) months at the time the lease is signed will not be counted under the occupancy policy for purposes of maximum occupancy. Still, they will be counted for subsequent leases if they reach the age of twenty-four (24) months during the lease term. The Landlord has the right to lease any empty bedroom(s). Families should contact the office directly regarding the application for family households, as this process varies from individual leasing, and the required forms are not all available electronically.
