Utility & Maintenance Reduction Program:

If you are approved and become a resident, you will be required in the lease agreement to pay $10 per month to be used to have HVAC filters regularly delivered to your doorstep under the Utility & Maintenance Reduction Program. This typically saves 5-15% on your energy bill and helps ensure a clean, healthy living environment. The $10 is in addition to the advertised rent price and is due along with rent each month.
