Late Move-Out Fee
Holdover Term is the period of time (in days) after a lease expires, when the home is not ready for showing or move-in because the exiting tenant failed to vacate and/or complete items on the Tenant Checklist.​ In this case, the exiting tenant is responsible for paying each of the following, for each day until the home is Move-In Ready:
$100 Late Move-Out Fee
Prorated rent
Prorated Utilities

Upload your renters insurance renewal policy declarations page before your policy expires to avoid the $19 No Insurance Fee. Our Processor texts reminders weekly during 30 days before expiration so there are no surprises.

NSF Fee
Before making a payment in appfolio, confirm you have enough money in your account and confirm your bank account / routing numbers are correct. There's a $30 fee for any returned payments, for either cause.
Unsigned Lease Renewal Fee
We can't process business effectively when tenants fail to sign the renewal or submitting a Move-Out Notice. We send Lease Renewals 3 months before the lease expires. Sign the renewal or submit a move-out notice at least 2 months before lease expiration to avoid the $100 Unsigned Lease Renewal Fee.

Utilities Disconnected During Lease Term
Keep utilities active for your entire lease term + any time after the lease if we need to complete your Tenant Checklist or repairs to avoid paying:

$20 Billing Fee per bill
Hourly rates if someone must meet the utility company to reactivate.
Warnings & Citations from City/County/HOA
Tenants are responsible for landscaping at the property. The city and/or HOA will fine you if you don't. If we get a notice of violation, we bill a $100 Lease Violation Fee. If you don't mow it, we'll send the landscaper, bill the cost to your account, & file the eviction.
