Olympia Furnished Homes FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) These are the most frequently asked questions by tenants and future tenants of Olympia Furnished Homes.
A: Please visit the Pricing and Contract, where you will find additional information, as well as contracts that you can print and mail or deliver with your holding fee. If you are on Facebook, I encourage you to "like" Olympiafurnishedhomes on Facebook. You can then use the Facebook contract, which will save you $100 on your deposit/holding fee. Please verify availability and connect with Marilynn (marilynn@olympiafurnishedhomes.com) before sending your holding fee. Marilynn is more readily available via email, but will try to return your call as soon as possible. A: No, you won't have to pay for a whole month that you don't need, as long as you work with Marilynn to assure that she is apprised of your move-out date. You will pay a daily prorate charge of $65 on the two bedroom homes and $60 on the one bedroom home. A: The two bedroom homes are $1900 per month, the 1702 SE Jefferson is $1800 per month (with no garage, and required street parking) and the one bedroom home is $1700 per month. Additional days are prorated at $65 per day for the two bedroom homes, and $60 per day for the one bedroom home (see the Pricing and Contractfor more information). A: Be sure and let Marilynn know when you will expect to arrive, and you will be personally welcomed into the home upon arrival. If Marilynn is not available, her property manager will be there to greet you with a smile. Q: What is the quickest way to get additional information? A: The quickest way to get additional information is to email Marilynn (marilynn@olympiafurnishedhomes.com ). You may also call and leave a message on her office phone (see the contact page). A: The homes are proudly advertised as healthy homes, and, thus, animals cannot be accepted under any circumstances. These are also non-smoking homes. You must be non-smokers. You will be required to sign a statement that you are a non-smoker. If you are a smoker or have animals, you may try these two links: A: If you are living in a duplex, it doesn't matter which garbage or recycle container you use. It is OK to use the container provided for the other side of the duplex. If both containers are too full, please contact us and we will pick up the extra garbage. Please do not allow garbage to be outside of the garbage can for animals to get into, or to create an eyesore to the neighborhood. See the Olympia Garbage/Recycle page for more information. A: Yes, At your request, Marilynn can email or fax a PDF file receipt within a reasonable (usually 24 hour) amount of time after receipt of your rent or deposit. A: Please write your check to Marilynn Stephens and mail it to the address on your rental agreement, or found on the contact page of this website. A: The internet service is wireless. Be sure that you receive the internet (WEP) code from Marilynn or Kuda prior to move-in. Q: What Channels are available with the TV Service? A: Besides all of the regular channels, you can choose from Showtime®, Starz®, The Movie Channel™, Cinemax® and HBO®, All of these channels are available via PREMIUM CHANNELS within ON DEMAND. This is the highest level of entertainment that I could find for your viewing pleasure. If anything is missing, contact Marilynn to add it. Q: What are the requirements for move-out? A: With Olympiafurnishedhomes, I provide a "We'll get you to the airport on time" feature, which means that when you move out, all you need to do is "cut and run". Q: How do I get my deposit return? A: Be sure that you supply me with your forwarding address. Per Washington State law, the landlord has 14 days for deposit return. I understand your need to receive your deposit in a timely manner, and try very hard to get it to you sooner. If you are military, and, depending upon the circumstances, you may receive your deposit BEFORE move-out. Q: I just broke a dish/glass/nick-nack/window blind/etc. What should I do? A: If you break anything in the home, please do not try to fix it yourself. You will not find a screwdriver in any of the homes, and the kitchen knives are not a good substitute. Call for maintenance. If the broken item is non-repairable, throw it away and notify Marilynn. If it is part of a set, she will order a replacement. Most broken items are considered normal wear and tear. So, please relax, live comfortably in the home and enjoy the luxuries. |
