Renters Insurance

Yes. We carry insurance coverage for the physical building itself; there is no coverage for your personal belongings and in the event you cause damage to your rental location, or other apartment property. Consequently, you may be financially obligated to reimburse your community or landlord for those damage repairs. The intent of our insurance requirement is to protect everyone!
As part of your lease agreement, you’re required to maintain an active renters insurance policy throughout your residency and provide proof of coverage. Residents should have a minimum of $100,000 in legal liability protection. This is to protect the property and resident from damage to our property to include damage caused by Water, Fire, Smoke and Explosion. We require all insurance carriers to list Uptown Rental Properties as an “Interested Party” on the Declaration page so the insurance company will notify us in the event of a cancellation or change in policy status.

Apartment Care
Learn how to properly clean and take care of your apartment to keep it in tip-top shape!
We recommend cleaning all quartz surfaces with a few drops of neutral cleaner, quartz stone soap or a mild liquid dishwashing detergent and warm water. Use a clean soft cloth for best results. Too much cleaner or soap may leave a film and cause streaks. Please refrain from using products that contain lemon, vinegar, or other acids. Rinse the surface thoroughly after washing with the soap solution and dry with a soft cloth. Do not use scouring powders or creams; these products contain abrasives that may scratch the surface.
Your apartment home comes professionally painted. You are welcome to paint your apartment and hang décor or televisions, however it must be returned to its original condition prior to move out. Should we need to repaint or patch any holes in your apartment home after you move out, charges for labor and materials may be assessed.
Use a vacuum cleaner for best roller blind maintenance. Learn how to operate the roller blinds correctly depending on the rolling power so you don’t damage or break them. If they are chain operated, always hold the chain with two hands pulling straight down and not to the side to open and close the blinds.
Cleaning of tempered glass is important to its lasting beauty. We suggest using a non-abrasive liquid cleaner. Never use scouring pads. An alternative is a glass squeegee. The anodized aluminum frame should be cleaned with a soft cloth. No abrasive cleaners should be used.
To maintain the exterior of all stainless-steel appliances and keep them looking shiny and new, we recommend using a stainless-steel cleaner. We also would like to recommend using a soft cloth for best results while avoiding any and all scouring pads as this will create visible scratches to the surface, resulting in permanent damage. A glass cooktop cleaner such as Weiman’s Glass Cooktop Cleaner should be used after each use of the range and or any spills, we recommend cleaning only after the cooktop has completely cooled down.

There is at least one fire extinguisher cabinet per floor. To access the extinguisher, break the glass with the metal bar. This extinguisher can be used on all fires. Carefully read the operating instructions on the side. If possible, you should familiarize yourself with its operation prior to a fire. It is also recommended that you keep a personal fire extinguisher in your home. This type of extinguisher is small and would be used primarily to fight a small kitchen fire.
This alarm is activated by the building fire protection system. If this alarm should activate, you will hear a high pitch sound and see a flashing red light, and you should vacate the building using the stairwells if it is safe to do so.
