✅ FINAL STEPS

REQUIRED:

• ⭐ CLICK TO SET UP ELECTRICAL SERVICE 🔌

  ⚠️ This is required on DAY ONE OF YOUR SIGNED LEASE TERM

  • Even if you’ll live here full-time later.

    • If that’s the case, your summer bills will be cheap.

• If you have an early move-in, set it up for that day.

• Otherwise, you’ll back-pay it all back, plus $50/month of unpaid utilities.
  
  

• ⭐ Inspect Apartment 📄

• Fill out the move-in inspection sheet to make sure you get your full deposit back.

  • You’ll also get this inspection sheet with keys.

  • Return it to the 929 N 17th St drop-box.

  • This could save you from security deposit deductions!
    
    

• ⭐ Maintenance 🛠️

  DOWNLOAD THE MAINTENANCE CONTACT HERE

• Text Carlito for maintenance / repairs if needed.

  • Always include your unit #, address, name, and photos of maintenance issues.

  • Start the text with *URGENT* for leaking pipes, fire hazards, power outages, etc. - esp. during the first week.

  • Wait 2-3 weeks after move-in to inform us about minor issues so we can serve those with more pressing needs first.

    • Please wait a day or two after requests, then email to follow up with Grant if the work isn’t done yet. Thanks for your patience during this very busy time.

  • See the FAQ page for more on wall-mounting and maintenance.

• ⭐ Set Up Internet 🌐

  When you’ve actually moved in, click below to start Internet service:

  INTERNET (Spectrum) - START SERVICE

  • Spectrum is the standard hardwired ISP, but you’re welcome to look into other options (such as your phone company).

  • Buy or rent your own modem & router.

• ⭐ Get Renter’s Insurance (≈$10-20/mo)🛡️

⚠️ Residents and their guests have caused thousands in damages.
Without renter’s insurance, residents are fully liable out-of-pocket.

Cover yourself in case of accidents, disasters, theft, or negligence of residents and their guests.

Add proof of insurance through the Resident Center app/portal.

• You can get a policy through our resident app/portal (not sponsored; it’s just easy to set up)

• Or from a 3rd party like Lemonade, your current insurance provider, or anyone you choose.

• ⭐ Mail 📫

  Change your address with the Post Office here

• ⭐ Safety Check ⚠️

Familiarize yourself with the location of fire extinguishers, alarm pull stations, & exit routes.

• Test smoke alarms and inform us if any are broken, out of batteries, or nonexistent.

  • (We do this before you move in; we recommend you check monthly as well).

RECOMMENDED:

• Furniture Trade 🛋️

  • Check out this page to see what furniture is being sold / given away by current tenants.

  • Save money & effort, and help prevent waste in our neighborhood.

• Payment Split Agreements 🤝

  • Campus MGMT only considers your total, collective unit balance, not individual balances.

    • This is the balance shown on the app/portal.

  • To keep your individual payments straight, we recommend you:

    • Sign an internal Rent-Split Agreement

      • Clarify your individual responsibilities to each other.

      • While you’re at it, make a plan to split cleaning. Up front convos are best!

• Start Rent Reporting (Credit Score Boost) 📈

  You can build your credit score with on-time rent payments, through the app.

  • It’s a fully optional add-on feature called “Rent Reporting” in the app menu.

• Intercoms: (Edge / 911 17th / Kensington Tenants Only) 🚪

  • Click the link below to download the contact info for the intercom system. When guests / deliveries ring your doorbell, everyone from the unit will get a call on your cell phone. Whoever picks up will be able to hear the person at the door, and let them in by pressing 9 (or hanging up to deny entry).

  • Your info will be added to the intercom in early June by our team.
