Question 1

What does Individual Leasing mean?

Accepted Answer

Each resident signs their own lease for their specific bedroom. So, if a roommate moves out, the other residents are not responsible for that person’s rent. Please note that common areas are a shared space.

Question 2

What are rental installments? Why is my rent not prorated?

Accepted Answer

A rental installment is a payment made as part of a series of payments. To simplify the billing process, the entire sum of the housing contract is divided into EQUAL installments. Instead of reducing the first installment and increasing the remaining installments, all installments are equal. These installments are factored into the start and end dates of the lease, including proration.

Question 3

Do you have a roommate matching system?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we offer a roommate matching system called RoomSync! If you don’t have anyone in mind that you’d like to live with, RoomSync can help you connect with potential roommates who have already completed the leasing process. Once you’ve signed your lease, you’ll receive an invitation to join RoomSync, where you can search for, chat with, and select your future roommates. If you don’t find a roommate or fail to complete the process by the deadline, our team will use the roommate matching sheet from your application to find the best match for you.
