SOME DETAILS BEFORE CONTINUING YOUR QUEST FOR AN APARTMENT ...
A little about services, requirements, what rent includes, etc. 1. All apartments come unfurnished. 2. Owner provides heat in season between October 15th and April 30th and hot water for cooking and bathing and not for laundry. 3. Tenant pays gas for cooking and electricity for general apartment appliances. Your monthly utilities charge depends on your particular life-style but we are guessing utilities run between 50.00 to 70.00 / month. The Baltimore Gas & Electric Company is best to consult for estimates on what your monthly bill may be and how to go about establishing your service. Our Charles Village and Tuscany locations have laundry facilities in the basement. Our Mount Vernon properties do not have laundry facilities. NOTE: There are plans underway to soon install separate heating systems in each individual apartment unit located at The Allston, 3111 North Charles Street. Once accomplished, tenant will then become responsible for heating costs and perhaps cooling costs, if available, supplying the apartment they occupy and at no change in the prevailing monthly rental rate. 4. All apartments are wired for telephone service and have some phone jacks; however, we do not furnish nor install phones or additional phone equipment. 5. All units are wired for subscription cable TV that will also accommodate Internet access. Check with the local cable company for details. 6. No central air conditioning is available at any of our properties but tenants can provide their own "apartment size" window cooling units not to exceed 5,000 Btus nor 110 volts. 7. Some other domestic pets, such as cats, are allowed in limited number without extra charge but only by written consent from landlord. Sorry, dogs are not permitted. 8. At the time you apply, there is required a non-refundable application processing fee and payment of the security deposit (equivalent to the monthly rental rate). The security deposit is refundable to you if no lease is executed. A thorough credit check is done on each applicant. Minors may have qualified guardians co-sign lease. 9. Our policy is that the number of people to occupy any apartment may not exceed the number of bedrooms as advertised. Only limited exceptions are made at adjusted rental rates. 10. Some of our locations do offer limited parking at additional expense.
