More info

• NO cigarettes, cigars or other tobacco smoking (even outside).

• Good credit — many students don’t have a job or strong credit history, so a lease co-signer (guarantor) is okay too.

• There is a chance we may sell the building sometime in the future, but no decision or definite plans today. If so, and the new buyer intends to live in the apartment themselves, the lease would end with at least 60 days of notice and there would be a small payment to tenants for their inconvenience and expenses.
