Use your resident portal via the AppFolio app or by visiting the online portal. Do not use the “pay balance in full” option if you have roommates. This pays the full balance for the apartment, not your portion. Overpayments will not be reimbursed, but can be applied to future rent charges.

Submit maintenance requests through your online portal. For after-hours emergencies, call 319-499-5190. Portal requests after hours will not be received. After-hours calls for non-emergencies may incur a fee.

Security deposits will be refunded within 30 days, less lawful deductions. To receive your refund by ACH, go to “Contact Us” in your portal and request a notice to vacate using your lease end date as the move-out date. Each tenant must submit this in their personal portal. If no ACH info is provided, your deposit will be held for one year before being forfeited.

Subleasing is not allowed without prior written consent from management.

If you need to leave before your lease ends, we offer a release option with an associated fee. Through this program, we will professionally advertise your sublease on our website to help you find a qualified replacement tenant.

Please note that even if you sublease your unit, you remain legally responsible for rent payments and any damages until a new lease is signed with an approved tenant. Contact our office to discuss your options and learn more about the release process.
