If we allow an animal you must sign a separate animal addendum and accept as set forth in the addendum and pay an animal fee.

An animal fee is not considered a general security deposit. The animal addendum includes information governing animals, including assistance and service animals.

How do I get my security deposit back? 

If you keep the apartment in good condition and don’t cause damages on the property then you will get your security deposit back, less any fees or damage charges, at the end of your lease. To ensure that there are no misunderstandings between you and the landlord, be sure to take inventory of any wear-and-tear you see when you move in using the inventory and condition form which is part of your lease package. You should note any issues in the unit on this form. You have 48 hours to return the form. The leasing office is not required after the 48 hours to accept your form and you may take the unit as is. Landlords are required to return any deposit refund due within 30 days. We will need a forwarding address to mail deposit refunds.
