Each of these 1-bedroom apartments includes refrigerator, range, dishwasher, & garbage disposal in the kitchen and a laundry center in the bonus room. Hot water is provided by Landlord. There are 2 different floor plans; one is a spacious one-level apartment on the ground-floor, with patios off both the front and back of each apartment. The second is an upstairs 2-story, townhouse-style apartment that has the living area, kitchen, dining, half-bath and balcony on the lower level, with the bedroom, bonus room and full bath on the second floor of the apartment. Parking is off-street near each building.   Check out FLOOR PLANS for apartment availability. Applications can be completed and submitted online only when an apartment is shown as available.   Apartment OnLine Rental Application Process: Our Online Application Process requires each person who will be on the lease to login and complete an application to allow us to run a Credit Check and a Criminal Background Screening. Be certain to fully complete the information requested on the application. This includes Current Employer's name, their address and the date you started employment with your employer. Plus, be certain you have entered your current Gross MONTHLY income. When your application is completed and submitted, you will be required to pay a $50.00* application fee (per person). This fee can be paid with your choice of debit card or credit card.  (*) Note: There is no payment processing fee added to this application fee. When your application is initially approved, your account will then automatically be charged a $250.00** Hold Deposit to reserve your chosen apartment in your name. This will be charged to the same debit card or credit card account used for your application fee. (**) Note: There is no payment processing fee added to this Hold Deposit. Approval is based on information obtained from the Credit and Criminal Background Screening reports and Income Qualifications (Income = 3x monthly rent). In order for your completed application to be processed, you must submit a copy of a Valid Photo ID for each applicant and 1 full month of paystubs as proof of income for each applicant via email to info@colonialinvestment.com. When you move into your apartment, the $250.00 Hold Deposit is applied toward the Security Deposit, which is equal to one month's rent. At move-in, you will need to pay the remaining Security Deposit, Pet Deposit if applicable, and the first month's rent, which is pro-rated to the actual number of days that you will have possession of the apartment. Contact the CIMC property management office to confirm the exact dollar amount you will need to pay at the time you sign your lease and pick up the keys to your new apartment. This amount may be paid via certified bank check, or money order. In order to view an apartment, you will need to schedule an appointment through the CIMC office. At this time, only vacant apartments may be shown. You will view the actual apartment that is available - we do not have "Models" for showing. This will give you the opportunity to see the apartment prior to your move-in and to ask any additional questions you may have. This may be done before or after you have submitted your application and paid your Hold Deposit - but remember most apartments are spoken for with a Hold Deposit prior to them being vacated and being able to be viewed. Check the "Photos" for each property to see apartments similar to the one you are applying for online. If you choose not to continue with the OnLine Application Process, you may download an application from CIMC's website (www.colonialinvestment.com) or pick one up at CIMC's office. Please be aware that applications not submitted online must be accompanied by a $50.00 Certified Check or Money Order and the $250.00 Hold Deposit should be paid with either a Money Order or Certified Check.
