The security deposit is equal to one month’s rent. This deposit indicates good faith that you will abide by all covenants of the Rental Agreement. If you do not fulfill your obligations, the deposit may be used to reimburse the Owner for any losses suffered.

We suggest making a copy of your key on the day you move in. During office hours we are happy to provide keys to tenants who have been locked out when we have copies available, provided that they are returned the same-day.

Unfortunately, we cannot assist with lockouts outside of normal business hours, for immediate access you will need to contact a locksmith. Owner is not responsible for lost or replacement keys nor any inconveniences caused by a lock out. Landlord has no obligation to maintain a duplicate set of keys for Tenants use in the event of loss of lockout.

If the situation presents an immediate safety risk, please call 911 or your local emergency services. If you would prefer to contact us, call our 24/7 Urgent Maintenance Hotline at 510-704-1240, Ext 1. An operator will answer your call and help you asses the situation.

Please email the leasing department at least 30 days in advance of your lease expiration date to inform them that you would like to move out. Provide keys to the leasing department and make sure your apartment is in the same condition it was on the day you took occupancy.

Tenant is required to use and maintain gas and electrical appliances properly. Landlord will address issues affecting the working order of refrigerator, stove and heater only. No other appliances will be guaranteed (Unless delivered to the Tenant with the rented premises).

Applicants, along with guarantors or co-signers, if any, are required to each complete their own applications. Applications require submission of personal information and history that pertains to or is necessary to acquire, rental history, credit checks, background checks, and other relevant information.

Applicants for a unit should each have credit (FICO) scores not less than 650 and combined pre-tax monthly income equal or greater than three times the monthly rent amount. However, meeting some or all of this criteria alone does not guarantee an applicant(s) the unit.

Meeting some or all of this criteria alone does not guarantee an applicant(s) the unit. We typically have multiple applications for units, more than one of which may meet all above stated criteria. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee that meeting the criteria will guarantee that an applicant is given the unit/home.
