• Q: We want to renew our lease. What do we need to do?

  A: Contact us first. If it fits the owner's plans and you have proven to be a reliable tenant we'll coordinate the new lease.

• Q: We want to end our lease early. What are the penalties?

  A: You are responsible for the terms of your lease. If you are on a fixed lease you may be liable for the full rent owed. We try to work with you in finding a replacement tenant but there will be advertising and vacancy costs. Please call us so that we can begin the search for a replacement tenant to release you from your lease. You will be charged a lease set up fee equal to one month rent, advertising costs and rent until the unit has been rented. On a month-to-month lease you need to give us 30 days written notice prior to vacating.

• Q: We have lots of bugs - what do we do?

  A: If you've just moved in call us and we'll discuss remedies. If you've been in the unit for a while, then you are responsible for pest control. We strongly recommend COMBAT for Ants & Roaches. You can also use various roach motels, bait traps, and the fumigators available at the local stores.

• Q: We're getting ready to move - do we need to do anything special?

  A: Yes. You need to complete a "resident's notice of intent to vacate form". Once you complete this form and turn it into us, we will mail you a letter detailing your move out requirements.
