FAQ

Does the apartment come furnished?

In the US, fully furnished apartments typically do not come with furniture, such as beds, sofas, or tables. American principles advocate for 'clean move-in and clean move-out'. However, kitchen appliances like refrigerators, ovens, and stoves are usually included. For purchasing furniture, you can consider buying it from stores like IKEA or Target, or contact seniors to buy some second-hand furniture, which is a cost-effective option.

What does XBXB mean in apartment layouts?

In the US, apartments are typically labeled in XBXB format, where the first 'B' indicates the number of bedrooms and the second 'B' indicates the number of bathrooms; for example, 3B3B means there are 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. You can refer to the floor plan for the specific layout.

What is the rental format of this apartment? What is a Joint lease?

This apartment is rented as a whole, which is known as a Joint lease. This means multiple roommates will sign a joint rental agreement, and each person is fully responsible for payment. If you are renting a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom apartment alone, you must sign for the entire unit or wait until you find roommates to sign together. Additionally, if you live in a jointly leased apartment and your roommate suddenly moves out without contact, the apartment can still pursue you for the full rent.
