What happens if I don’t like my roommate?
Our management team encourages you to communicate openly with your roommates in an attempt to resolve any conflicts that may arise from sharing an apartment together. There is a Roommate’s Bill of Rights that is agreed to upon signing your lease contract that will help you address common roommate issues, such as guest visitation, apartment décor, sleeping schedules, etc. If you and your roommates are unable to reach a mutual agreement or there is a violation of the lease occurring within your apartment, please feel free to contact our management team.
