Frequently asked questions about Chicago
How long are the lease terms?
We offer 3~14 month lease terms. Monthly rent varies by lease term. The rent displayed on the website is for a 12-month lease. For short-term leases and longer lease terms, please consult with our leasing agents to get the pricing.
Can I bring my own furniture?
Yes! Furniture from your previous residence may be brought with you when moving into unfurnished units, just make sure the apartment is returned in its original state when moving out.
What is the application process like?
Applying is simple and 100% online. First, you will book an in-person or virtual tour with one of our leasing specialists. If you would like to apply, our agents will then send you an application via email to be completed. Once your background and credit checks are complete and your application is approved, a lease agreement will be sent off for signing. From there, you will pay your administration fee once the lease is submitted.
What credit score do I need to qualify?
We require the credit score to be 650 or higher, or a co-signer meeting this requirement.
What are the credit and income requirements?
Tenants need a credit score of 650 or higher or a qualified co-signer with the same score. Co-signers should be U.S.-based and have income at least three times the monthly rent.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, we only allow pets at our private studio and 2-bedroom apartments. There is a one-time and non-refundable $300 pet fee, in addition to the monthly pet rent (Cats: $15/month/pet; Dogs: $25/month/pet).
Do I need renters' insurance?
Yes. We require that all tenants purchase renters' insurance. This protects both your belongings and the property in case of damage.
