Price
The most important detail when searching is price point. You don’t want to get too far along in the decision-making process to realize an apartment home is out of your budget. To avoid this, check with our leasing team to make sure our apartment homes are in your price range.
Size
Finding the right sized apartment with enough square footage for your lifestyle is very important when moving to an apartment home. The number of square feet helps determine if your furniture will fit, if there’s enough room for your pets, or even if you can go for a smaller home.
Floor Plan
Your perfect floor plan is out there! Your floor plan helps determine the type of kitchen, how many bedrooms, how many bathrooms, how big is the living space, if you have a balcony/patio and more. These details shape your next apartment home and help to make your space your own. Our apartment homes feature unique, spacious floor plans just for you.
Location
The location of your future home may be flexible but can be a very big decision. Your apartment home location determines your commute to work, restaurants, and shops. Location even effects your drive to friends and family. Ask our team about the perks of our convenient location today.
Amenities
Our apartment home community features extensive amenities for our residents. The amenities package in an apartment home is an added perk to living in a professionally managed community. You get the perks of our amenities along with the experience when you choose our community.
Should you need any help making your apartment home search easier, please feel free to contact our team any time to discuss whether our community is the best fit for you.

]]>Make a list of daily tasks.
When working from home, it’s important to stay on task and hold yourself accountable. The beauty of flexibility means you can make your own schedule, but keeping that schedule is important to stay productive and produce quality work. By making a list, you can help keep track of progress toward your goals.
Get dressed.
Although a perk of working from home is the chance to wear pajamas, try getting dressed every day. People say that when you look good, you feel good! This helps set boundaries and will subconsciously motivate you to get started on your day.
Set aside workspace.
Working from bed or a couch may be comfortable, but they aren’t as likely to be productive workspaces. Try designating a desk or table for your work in order to keep work vs. relaxation separate. If you don’t have room for an office in your apartment home, clearing your counter or using your kitchen table can work just as well.
Get out of your apartment.
Whether it’s working from a coffee shop for the day, or simply running an errand, plan to leave your apartment at least once during your WFH (work from home) day. Working elsewhere helps add a little peer pressure to not be “that guy” who takes up valuable space near an outlet in the coffee shop. Or, consider going to your local library for a free, quiet space to work. If you are running an errand or run out to get lunch, this will motivate you to set small goals to accomplish before and after the time you leave, adding little reminders to stay on task.
Set clear office hours.
Sticking to regular office hours even when you aren’t in the office can help hold you accountable for a healthy work-life balance. This way, you are online when co-workers are working, and you are available when needed. Plus, setting a time to log off each day will help keep work and your personal life separate, even when you bring work home.
If you have the flexibility to work from your apartment home, we hope you found these five tips helpful. The key is to set goals, stay motivated and find your balance!

]]>Want to utilize your windowsill space? Try basic herbs like basil, rosemary, mint, ginger, cilantro, or parsley. If you have counter space in your kitchen, this is the perfect location for these little plants. Plus, when it’s time to harvest your goods, you don’t have to go far!
Have balcony or patio space? Try growing a plant that needs ample sunlight and a little more room like tomatoes or a dwarf fruit tree. You can get different kinds of dwarf trees like apple, lemon, or orange easily. These outdoor plants may need a little more care-taking, so be ready to take on a challenge.
Don’t have a great space for natural light in your apartment? Buy a mushroom growing kit online to get started. You don’t have to do much, and you can enjoy fresh mushrooms from your apartment home.
This spring we hope we can spark some ideas and that you can to grow some delicious fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs right at home. It’s easy and a great hobby to get started. Happy growing!

Read below for some creative (and easy) Halloween costume suggestions!

Multicolor pom poms
A black/white top
Red skirt/pants (the gumball machine)
Black felt (the 25-cent coin slot)
Glue gun and sticks
Steps: Hot glue the pom poms to the shirt to create the “gumball” portion. Use the felt to cut out and create the 25-cent slot. Glue the “money slot” on the red skirt/pants to create the “machine/stand” portion.
Costume: Harry Potter
What you’ll need:
Red and gold striped scarf
Black, round, glasses
Red face paint
Black robe
Steps: Draw a lightening bolt shaped scar on forehead. Throw on the robes, scarf, and glasses, and poof! You’re a Hogwarts legend.

Steps: Tape or glue inflated purple balloons to your neutral under clothes. For an added detail, wear a green beanie to create a grape stem.
The anti-costume: Error 404
Steps: Find a local t-shirt screen printer or draw on a t-shirt “Error 404 Costume Not Found.” This is a snarky and minimal effort costume for even the most last minute of decisions.

]]>Small amounts of leftover food from your plate such as any small amount of carrot peelings, tomato chunks, and strawberry stems.
What should not go down the garbage disposal?
Anything that isn’t biodegradable food and/or items like plastic, metal, cigarettes, animal bones, hamburger, cooking oil or grease, eggshells, potato skins, rice or pasta, corncobs, seafood shells or shrimp. These items can easily clog your disposal even in small quantities.
What items can I store in my utility closet?
Only the water heater and furnace should occupy your utility closet(s). Other items stored here may prevent our staff from completing maintenance-related tasks and they may be hazardous to the equipment.
Why do I have partial power in my apartment?
You may need to check the breaker or the GFI outlet in your apartment. Every resident has their own breaker box and every outlet within four feet of a water source should have a GFI outlet. The GFI outlets are the ones with the buttons on them to reset the outlet. If you have partial power, try checking out your breaker and GFI reset buttons to make sure everything is ok!
What do I do if I come home late at night and I’m locked out?
You can call us using the emergency maintenance line at any hour of the day or night for help. The fee for a lock out is $25 and this fee will be charged to your resident ledger.
Can I call someone if there is an emergency in my apartment?
Yes, please call 911 first for any life-threatening emergencies such a fire or domestic disturbance. Then call our emergency maintenance staff for help or for any non-life-threatening emergencies. We are happy to help for those times when you are not sure if something is an emergency.
What is considered an emergency maintenance request?
Emergency requests include any non-contained leaks, non-functioning toilets (if it is your only toilet), a/c or heat not working during hot/cold temperatures, smoke detector beeping, security breach, total loss of power, flood, broken window, someone parked in your assigned spot (please identify your spot number, the car description, and if there is a tag in the car), non-functioning refrigerator, building entry door not functioning, or frozen/broken pipe.
Can I submit an emergency request online?
Please submit all requests by calling our office during the day or leaving a message with the property's direct line. We do not receive the online requests submitted after hours until the following business day.
Who should I call if my neighbors are noisy?
The office or maintenance staff is happy to handle any concerns regarding noise that can be handled without police intervention. For any loud arguments, excessive music, partying, etc., please contact the police. You may call 911 for life-threatening situations or the non-emergency police line for any other concerns.
Should I turn off my a/c or heat when I leave town?
Our staff suggests lowering the heat or increasing the a/c by 2-3 degrees instead of shutting it off completely so that the equipment runs more efficiently. Please do not turn off your heat during very cold months so that you do not come home to a frozen pipe!
