Every lease requires a different security deposit amount that may vary based on a tenant’s credit history. Typically, rentals require one or two month’s rent to be paid in full before a tenant moves into a property.

Yes, your security deposit is fully refundable as long as you have met the move out requirements per the terms of your lease. In order to receive a full security deposit, the following requirements must be met:

• Your lease term has expired or agreement has been terminated in writing by all parties
• You have given a written, paid 60-day notice to vacate
• No damage has been done to the property beyond normal wear and tear
• The rental has been returned by the lessee fully cleaned and all trash, debris, and personal items have been removed
• Rental is returned with the yard freshly maintained (if required per lease)
• All rent, fees, and other charges have been paid in full by the Lessee
• All door keys, amenity keys, mailbox keys, access cards, gate openers, garage door opener, and any other remote devices have been returned to management

Rent is due on the 1st day of each month.

You can pay rent online through the Buildium platform using the Resident Sign In. Note the portal is easy to use and free of charge if the money is transferred electronically from your bank account.

Each rental property has a different policy based on the owner’s discretion, so be sure to review the rental listing description and your lease.

For properties that do allow pets, there will be a $250 pet deposit and a monthly pet rent fee that is set at the property owner’s discretion. Note these fees will vary and the property owner will have the final say over what types and sizes of pets are permitted.

No, you will be responsible for paying a prorated portion of the current month based on your move in date. For example, if your monthly rent is $1,000 and you moved in on September 16, you would only be responsible for 15 days of the 30 day month or $500.

Yes, a late fee of 10% of monthly rent will be applied on the 6th day of the month.

At our single family home properties, you are responsible for basic lawn and yard care maintenance. For multifamily properties, lawn and yard care is not the tenant’s responsibility. If you are in a homeowners association, some of the yard maintenance may be done by the association. 

No, repainting the interior of your rental is not allowed. On special occasions and with permission of the property manager, a tenant may work out a written agreement with the property owner to repaint the property interior.

All maintenance requests can be submitted through the online Buildium platform here. After logging into your account, click on the “Requests” page and follow the prompts.

Repairs and maintenance costs are generally covered by the property owners unless they are determined to be beyond normal wear and tear. Tenants may be responsible for covering repair costs if the maintenance item is deemed to be caused by the tenant and not a normal expense.

Maintenance requests can be submitted online through your Buildium account here. You may also call our office at (757) 383-9510 in the event of an emergency, but we do ask that you also formally submit your request online so that we can properly field your request.

If you are vacating the property before the end of your lease, you will be subject to a breakage fee equal to two month’s rent.

After a move-out inspection is conducted, we will communicate our report to you via email along with the security deposit transmittal within 45 days of the end of your tenancy.

You may submit payment online, via mail, or in-person at the ProActive office. If you owe money over and above your security deposit and do not pay or make payment arrangements within 30 days of the security deposit transmittal, we may pursue legal action.

If you are unable to make full payment at one time, please contact the ProActive Team by phone or email to review your payment arrangement options.

You may begin the lease renewal process by notifying the ProActive Team at least 60 days before your lease term expires. At that point, we will confirm your lease is available for renewal and send you a lease renewal agreement.
