SDSU Rentals

We operate on a first come, first served basis. Student groups can be a chaotic and constantly changing their mind on group size, individuals in the group, wants for a house, etc. So once your group has decided definitively on a house you would like to rent, we ask you submit a holding deposit so we can take the house off the market. This gives everyone a week or so of ‘breathing room’ to fill out an application and review and executes a lease agreement. If any one persons application is denied the group will immediately receive all the holding deposit funds back -  this is incredibly rare and almost never happens. Once the lease is executed the holding deposit is converted into the groups security deposit, and any remaining balances are due. 

Water filters were replaced at turnover. 

Any future water filter desired is then tenant

responsibility. To order a new filter you can google the fridge model number (typically on a sticker on the inside of the door) and place the order on amazon. You can find easy installation instructions online.

Any leaking refrigerators should be reported in your group chat immediately and submit a

maintenance request.

Toilets: Do not flush anything down the toilet besides toilet paper. Wipes, even if it says “flushable,” should NOT go down the toilet. Tenants will be charged for clogs caused by wipes.

What is a running toilet?

If the toilet sounds like it is filling with water for an extended amount of time or constantly runs even when it is not being used, send in a maintenance request immediately & send in your group chat.

Do not overload. Be sure to clean the lint trap in the dryer before each use. After each use of the washer, leave the door slightly open to avoid mildew build up. It’s recommended to run a washing machine clean cycle once a month to keep the machine clean and functioning properly.

Any leak can cause serious & expensive property damage. Also, tenants pay for the water bill and we will fix any leaks in an urgent manner. So do not delay to report as every gallon wasted is money down the … DRAIN! 

Please notify management immediately through the group chat if a leak is suspected anywhere on the property.

If you fail to report a leak that you are aware of, the cost of damages could be tenant responsibility. 

Do not go on the roof, EVER. We will FINE the house $250 per incident 

No items are allowed on roofs (ex. Chairs, flags, statues)

Roofs are not designed or engineered to hang out on. You will either fall through or off and will cause damage to the roof or yourself. Roofs are expensive to repair and costs could be passed to you.

Renewing your lease for an additional year is possible! This can be done with the same group or a mix of current and new tenants. Renewal decisions must be made by early October to guarantee the house is not re-listed for future tenants, so consider this possibility early on in your tenancy. Please reach out in your group chat for the pricing of your renewal. 

Management will be reminding you of the renewal option as it approaches. If your group decides to not renew, your house will be listed online for prospective future tenants.

Depending on popularity, your house may be toured multiple times throughout the term of your lease. Tours will always be guided by a member of the SDSU Rentals team. Tenants will always be given a 24 hour notice of the tours.

Security deposit is fully refundable within 21 days after possession of the unit is given back to the landlord, less any damages or deficiencies.

Most tenant’s have already selected a lead tenant in their lease. If no lead tenant is agreed on then the deposit check will be made out to tenants on the lease and everyone will have to be present to cash it. In rare cases we can break out the check into multiple checks as long as everyone agrees on the amounts to be distributed. Management stays out of any decisions on who specifically gets what portion of the deposit. It is up to the tenants to work out and ultimately agree on.
