my opinion....do not rent from this rental company
i lived at south campus quarters for 1 year. don't rent from these people! from the get go they mislead you...you are shown a staged unit that looks nice and because the units are being occupied you do not get to see first hand the unit you will be renting but are assured that it is the same.....complete lie! first and foremost it was a piece of shit rental. the unit was completely falling apart...cover to my (supposedly air conditioned rental) wall mounted unit, would not stay on and even fell on an individuals head once, asked that it be replaced they did not. glass globe that fell to ground ( and no i did not change a bulb) i was charged $30 dollars for....handle to bathroom literally fell apart when i went to open it one day....they would come in unannounced to check on my place. i never used the oven and probably made mac and cheese a few times, usually used my microwave for everything, however they charged me $70 dollars to replace drip pans and clean stove i never used! my girlfriend and i cleaned the unit from top to bottom....they charged me $695 to clean and supposedly repair my unit.....total bullshit.....i had a $400 deposit and am now being charged $295.

paint doorway to kitchen due to large scuffs: $35

honestly there should be a law against this kind of abuse towards renters......my biggest mistake was not demanding that they fix things that constantly were broken or breaking....i am way to laid back and will learn from this lesson....actually my biggest mistake was renting from them, but that being said i hope this gives a heads up to a potential future renter and will make them think twice. read more
