LEASING FAQs & FEES
APPLICATION PROCESS & ONE-TIME FEES
SIMPLE. TRANSPARENT. NO SURPRISES.
The Exchange believes in straightforward communication with every prospective resident. Below is an honest outline of the leasing process, required fees, and what you can expect from application to move-in.
How It Works
Complete the online application — a $75 one-time application fee starts the screening process
Your selected apartment home will be reserved for up to three (3) days or until a screening decision has been made, whichever occurs first.
Upon approval of your application, a $500 refundable security deposit is due (you will receive an email from Rentable). For conditional approvals, a security deposit greater than $500 may be required based on screening results.
Security deposit is managed through Rentable — flexible payment options available
Once your security deposit has been paid, the leasing team will send out your lease for execution. The $250 administrative fee is due along with your initial pro-rated monthly rent prior to move in.
SECURITY DEPOSIT - RENTABLE
HOSPITALITY SERVICES FEE
WHAT'S INCLUDED — $125 PER MONTH.
At The Exchange, we believe in providing exceptional value through convenience, transparency, and thoughtfully selected services. In addition to base rent, residents pay a required $125 monthly Hospitality Services Fee, which includes a comprehensive package of services and benefits designed to enhance their living experience. Rather than paying for these services individually, residents enjoy the convenience of having them bundled into one predictable monthly fee, offering added value and potential savings.
