Question 1

Does the apartment come furnished?

Accepted Answer

The apartment includes furniture such as a bed, desk, chairs, and sofa. For specific details, please refer to the amenities list on the property details page.

Question 2

Why do I have to pay rent 12 times if I rent for less than a year?

Accepted Answer

Student apartments charge fees based on your actual rental period (e.g., 11.5 months) but divide this into 12 equal parts for convenience. Generally, this is referred to as a 12 month installment plan rather than rent. The apartment collects the monthly rent on the 1st of each month or earlier, and late payment may incur late fees, please refer to the terms of your contract for details.

Question 3

Can I rent alone without a roommate?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely, the apartment offers individual leases where each person is only responsible for their own bedroom and certain common areas. If you don't have a roommate, the apartment will try to match you with one based on your preferences (please note, no specific nationality requests to avoid issues of discrimination). If you already have a roommate in mind, you can mention this, and the apartment will attempt to accommodate everyone together, but due to the nature of individual leases, there’s no guarantee everyone will be placed in the same unit.

Question 4

Can I move in early?

Accepted Answer

Generally, early move-ins are not allowed in US apartments because the previous tenant may not have moved out yet, or the apartment requires cleaning and preparation after they vacate.

Question 5

Is the room carpeted or floored?

Accepted Answer

The room has carpet, while other areas have flooring.

Question 6

Does the apartment have a washer and dryer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the apartment comes equipped with a washer and dryer.

Question 7

What payment methods are available for rent?

Accepted Answer

Rent can be paid online using Visa or MasterCard.

Question 8

Does the apartment have air conditioning?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the apartment is equipped with air conditioning.

Question 9

Does the apartment have an elevator?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the apartment has an elevator.

Question 10

Can I choose the direction my room faces?

Accepted Answer

In the US, room orientation is generally not a consideration, but you can mention your preference for a room with better lighting when applying. If there are enough available units, the apartment usually prioritizes those requests, but there’s no guarantee of being assigned to a satisfactory room.

Question 11

Does the apartment have parking?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the apartment offers parking at a cost of $150 per month (all fees mentioned are for reference only; actual amounts will be based on the current contract with the apartment).

Question 12

Does the apartment provide heating?

Accepted Answer

The room has air conditioning.

Question 13

What is the apartment application fee?

Accepted Answer

The application fee is a charge by the apartment for processing applications, which each applicant must pay. Note that the fee is non-refundable regardless of the application outcome, and the application will only be processed after the fee is paid.

Question 14

What is renter's insurance? Why should I buy it?

Accepted Answer

In the U.S., apartments usually require tenants to purchase renter's insurance. The cost is relatively low, averaging about $12 per month, and varies based on coverage amount, location, and selected options; it helps prevent property loss and reduces financial loss in liability disputes.

Question 15

Can the apartment collect my packages before I move in?

Accepted Answer

No, the apartment requires that packages can only be collected after the person has checked in.

Question 16

What time can I check in after I arrive? How to proceed?

Accepted Answer

Generally, check-in can only be done during the apartment's working hours. If early or late check-in is needed, you must contact the apartment in advance. Typically, you cannot check in before the rental start date in U.S. apartments. Required documents for check-in include a passport, a digital copy of the lease agreement, and renter's insurance.

Question 17

What should I do when I move out?

Accepted Answer

You cannot terminate the lease early before the end of the tenancy; you may sublet your room. When you move out, you need to take your personal belongings and clean the room, then return the keys and elevator card to the apartment.
