Maintenance

Information you need.

The fastest and best method for submitting a Maintenance Request is through our Online Tenant Portal. Our Tenant Portal will also allow you to track the status of any Maintenance Request.

Please refer to your lease before submitting a maintenance request since a lot of general maintenance is the tenant’s responsibility.

Paragraph 18 defines the responsibilities of both the tenant and the landlord when it relates to repairs. In addition, most leases contain a repair deductible of $75 or $100 so if a repairman is sent to make a repair, you will be charged this amount if it is a repair that falls under the responsibility of the tenant.

If this is a life threatening emergency call 911 immediately.
