Question 1

Is the apartment furnished?

Accepted Answer

The apartment is equipped with furniture such as beds, tables, chairs, and sofas. For specific details, please refer to the facility list on the property details page.

Question 2

Why am I paying rent 12 times when my lease is only 11.5 months?

Accepted Answer

In fact, student apartments charge fees based on your actual rental period (for example, 11.5 months). For convenience in calculation and management, the fees are typically divided into 12 installments charged monthly. In such cases, both the lease and website documentation usually refer to them as ‘12 month installments’ rather than rent. Rent is due on or before the first of each month, and late payments may incur a late fee; please refer to the contract for details.

Question 3

Can I rent alone if I don't have a roommate?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the apartment offers individual leases, meaning each person is responsible only for their own bedroom and some shared areas. If you don’t have a roommate, the apartment will try to match based on your roommate preferences (requests based on nationality are not allowed due to discrimination laws). If you already have a selected roommate, you can note that, and the apartment will do its best to arrange for everyone to stay together, though they cannot guarantee that everyone will be placed in the same unit due to the nature of individual leases in U.S. student apartments.

Question 4

Can I check in early?

Accepted Answer

Generally, early check-in is not allowed for apartments in the U.S. because the previous tenant may not have moved out yet, or the apartment needs to be cleaned after the prior tenant vacates.

Question 10

Can I choose the orientation of my room?

Accepted Answer

Question 14

What is renter's insurance and why should I purchase it?

Accepted Answer

In the U.S., many apartments require tenants to purchase renter's insurance (Renter Insurance). Most insurance plans offer monthly or annual payment options, and the cost is quite low, averaging around $12 per month, varying based on your coverage amount, location, and selected items. This protects against property loss and minimizes liability risks in case of disputes.

Question 15

Can the apartment accept my packages before I move in?

Accepted Answer

No, the apartment requires that packages can only be collected after you have personally checked in.

Question 16

When can I check in after arriving? How do I check in?

Accepted Answer

Typically, check-in can only be completed during the apartment's working hours. If you need to check in early or late, you must contact the apartment in advance, adhering to their requirements. Generally, U.S. apartments do not allow check-in prior to the lease start date. Required documents for check-in include your passport, electronic copy of the lease agreement, and electronic copy of the renter's insurance.

Question 17

What should I do when exiting the lease?

Accepted Answer

Before the end of the lease, you cannot terminate it early; you may opt to sublet your room. When moving out, take your personal belongings, clean your room, and return the keys and elevator card to the apartment.
