Rental Rules

1. Leases - Leases are generally for a minimum of one year, unless otherwise stated. All leases require a 30-day written notice to vacate even if the move is in conjunction with a lease expiration. Residents must allow property to be shown during notice period, or 30 days notice period will start upon vacancy. We do not break leases for a voluntary move; any resident vacating during the initial lease period for reasons other than official military transfer orders will be charged a $200.00 fee to cover extra processing costs in addition to being liable for any lost rent, the costs of re-renting the premises, and forfeiting the security deposit.
   
   
2. Rent - All rents are due in full on the 1st of the month. They will not be considered late if in by the 3rd. Rent paid after the 3rd of the month must include a late fee of $45. We are not on a bi-monthly system and do not accept paying 1/2 the rent on the first and 1/2 on the 15th. Please notify the company if you anticipate any problems paying the full rent on time.
   
   
3. Insurance - The property owner carries a fire policy that covers the dwelling only. Insurance coverage for the contents (i.e. your furniture, jewelry, etc.) must be provided by the resident. Owner also recommends that resident obtain liability coverage to cover negligent or accidental acts by resident, family or guests.
   
   
4. Maintenance – The property you lease will have all major appliances in good working condition and landscaping will be currently maintained. From this point forward, any routine maintenance such as replacing faucet washers, cleaning gutters, replacing furnace filters, and lawn and shrub care is the responsibility of the resident. All repair calls must go through the office. A repair deemed to have been made necessary by the resident (i.e. a kitchen drain stopped up by grease) will be billed to the resident. No changes may be made to the premises without PRIOR approval of the property manager - including contact paper in cabinets, wallpaper, painting, taking out or adding plants, etc.
   
   For any repair issue, you may contact the office by phone at 858-452-7788 or use the convenient Maintenance Request button on this website.
   
   
5. Pest Control - If a pest control problem exists at the time a resident occupies a property, we will have a professional pest control company spray the property one time at the owner's expense. Any additional spraying/treatments after occupancy will be the responsibility of the resident. Any dangerous pests must be reported to the management company.
   
   
6. Inspection - You will receive a copy of the latest inspection completed at the time you sign your lease or at move-in. If there are any other items of damage not noted on the inspection, please make a list of these in writing and submit it to the office within five days of taking possession of the property. This inspection will be used as a comparison for the one done at the time you vacate.
   
   
7. Cleaning - When the property is vacated, it must be clean. This includes (but is not limited to) the stove, oven, refrigerator, carpets steam-cleaned, bathrooms, cabinets inside and out, woodwork, walls spot-cleaned if necessary, and the windows cleaned inside. All trash is to be removed and may not be left outside for later pick-up by garbage collectors. Any residue or smell from pets, cooking, etc. must be eliminated or will considered as damage.
   
   
8. Checkouts - Checkouts will be done during the business week. The resident will be responsible for rent until the keys are returned and/or the end of the lease period, whichever is later. Resident is to clean the property and have it ready for final inspection, and then bring the keys to the office to terminate their possession of the property. Inspections will be done within three (3) business days and deposits refunded unless repair estimates have to be obtained or cleaning done. Utilities must remain on until inspection and any cleaning is done.
   
   
9. Helpful hints
   • Please do not use scouring powder to clean acrylic or fiberglass bathroom tubs. It will ruin the finish. There are special cleaning products for these units.
   • If the oven is self- cleaning, please do not use oven cleaner in it.
   • NO SMOKING IS ALLOWED INSIDE ANY PROPERTY.
