COVID-19
In the case of this evolving COVID-19 pandemic, we remain committed and are contractually obligated to provide housing for our residents, and residents continue to have the option as to when they choose to physically occupy their apartments between now and the end of the current lease terms. We have heard from many students that they desire to stay at their college apartments instead of going home and running the risk of potentially infecting their parents and grandparents who may be in a higher risk category. All this holds true for students living in private off-campus properties at all of the universities across America, whether they have leased in modern purpose-built student communities such as ours, traditional multi-family apartments, duplexes, townhomes and multiplexes, single family rental homes, or any other type of off-campus housing. It is for all of the reasons stated above, we are not offering lease terminations and refunds at private off-campus apartment communities.
We have closed amenity access to the clubhouse and fitness center and are following recommendations made by local governing authorities. While we have adjusted to accommodate social distancing best practices, we continue to operate and support our residential communities as students fulfill their academic mission. We want residents to be assured that they will still have a place to live within our communities. (The Vue Communities have adopted this COVID-19 response from American Campus Communities).
If residents think they have been exposed to COVID-19 and develop flu-like symptoms, we are advising that they immediately contact their healthcare provider and follow their instructions. Additionally, we recommend that students contact their university and refer to guidelines provided by university and local health officials. Please refer to CDC.gov and the President’s Coronavirus Guidelines for America at whitehouse.gov.
If you believe your roommate to be sick, have them contact their healthcare provider immediately, and continue following CDC-recommended cleanliness and social distancing guidelines. The healthcare provider will work with local health departments to provide additional instructions and manage the response to any suspected cases of COVID-19.

When you rent with us you are only responsible for you. If you rent a regular apartment with another company in town and one of your roommates falls on hard times or skips town….. you are stuck with and responsible for their rent and their utilities if they do not pay.
This is a great benefit that our students and parents love!
