What is a conventional lease?
Chase Village leases conventionally, meaning all roommates will be on a shared lease, and they (along with all co-signers) are equally responsible for the full rent amount and any other charges on the shared account.
The Mansion at Chase Village leases individually (by the bedroom) meaning each person is on their own separate lease.
Do you have to be a student to live at Chase Village?
You do not have to be a student to live here. Although our lease terms are based around the University schedule and we are located in the Autzen District, we lease to anyone who meets our rental criteria.
What is the rental criteria?
Each applicant must make 2.5x times the rent and have a credit score of 600 or higher. Misdemeanors and felonies may cause a negative effect on your approval or even cause a denial. Evictions will cause a negative effect on your approval or even cause a denial.
Do you allow co-signers?
Only students are able to have a co-signer. A co-signer may be permitted only if there is a lack of income or lack of credit with the applicant. A co-signer may not take the place of bad credit. A co-signer must complete an application and meet all of the Rental Qualifying Criteria. Co-signers will be required to sign the Co-Signer Addendum to the Rental Agreement. The co-signer will be held liable in case of any default by the applicant/resident. Each roommate must have his or her own co-signer
Do we need Renter’s insurance?
Our company requires that all residents have $100k liability coverage. For your convenience, we offer a plan to fulfill this requirement. The cost for this plan is $17 per person per month (through 2026). You may waive this coverage if you already have liability insurance through another provider however, you must submit a copy of your policy for review so we can ensure it meets our property requirements. Opting out of plan coverage and submission of an alternative policy must be done within our portal https://portal.confirminsurance.com/s/.
We also offer Personal Contents Coverage (PCON) for $5.50 per person per month (through 2026). Though this is not mandatory, if you would like to waive this coverage you must opt out of the plan within our portal https://hra.confirminsurance.com/ppp-opt-out.
Is Chase Village pet friendly?
Yes, we are very pet-friendly! We do not have any breed or weight restrictions. There is a maximum of two pets (dogs and/or cats) allowed per apartment. Pet deposits are $500/dog and $400/cat, and pet rent is $60/dog and $40/cat. We have TWO off-leash dog parks available for your pups to enjoy!
What is Boom?
Build your credit by paying your rent on time! Boom is a service that enables you to build your credit by simply paying your rent on time. This means no loans, no credit cards, and no high-interest rates. Pay your rent on time each month and Boom will take care of the rest. Please let the office know if you have any questions!
What is an RV Index?
The RV Index is a risk score based on several factors. It is an innovative move in qualifying criteria used to screen and qualify applicants and guarantors. By using this inclusive index opposed to our prior practice, we take a step toward future industry standards of fair practice. Depending on your property, an RV index of 40 or 50 will need to be achieved. Instead of just credit score and income, the index looks at several factors such as:
1. Payment history on all trade lines
2. Ratio of rent to income
3. Ratio of debt to income
4. Collections
5. Ratio of positive to negative credit lines
