You have questions, we have answers...

Q: How do I sign up?

A:  Contact Marilynn at marilynn@olympiafurnishedhomes.com, or call/text her cell (360) 250-2616

Q: How much is the deposit?

A: We don't collect deposits or holding fees.

Q: What do I do if my stay goes over into another month?

A: You won't have to pay for a whole month that you don't need.  You will pay a contractual daily rate provided for in your contract.

Q: I'm worried that I don't know my move-out date.  In that case, how do I pay rent?

A: If you are in that situation, I will ask that you don't pay rent until you know for sure what your move-out date is.  In some cases, that may mean leaving a check in the home on day of move-out.  Your contract provides for a contractual daily rate (not pro-rate, but close to the same amount).

Q: What is the rental amount?

A: The homes are priced from $2600 to $3200.  See prices on each home's page.

Q: How do I get the keys?

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 or text (text is preferred).

Q: How do I pay the rent once I am moved in?

A: The mailing address is on your contract, and is also found in the contact section of this website.  However, in an effort to assure your comfort in every possible way during your stay, if you prefer a different method of delivery, just ask!

Q: I have a very well behaved animal.  Will you accept the animal with a deposit?

A: I can no longer accept animals in my homes.    

Q: What will I do if my garbage gets full and hasn't been picked up yet?

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. 

Q: Do you supply receipts?

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.

Q: How do I get on the internet?

A: You will receive the wireless code from Marilynn prior to or upon move-in. 

Q: What Channels are available with the TV Service?

A:  Your home has a fully loaded X1 Xfinity TV service.  However, you will never find them if you simply start clicking through the channels.  XFinity really wants you to BUY more TV service.  So, just press the green microphone button on the Xfinity remote and say, "Free to Me".  Suddenly, you will see a very large selection of TV media. (note: as of May, 2023, and due to the degraded Xfinity customer service and media offerings, we will be slowly moving over to ROKU streaming on the smart TVs)

Q: What are the requirements for move-out?

A:  Prior to move-out...

Q: My bus/train/Uber/Lyft/family member will pick me up to leave the home.  How strict is your 11AM move-out policy?

A:  The 11 AM move-out policy is flexible.  Due to the extended stay nature of the homes, more often than not, we will have the flexibility for you to leave late.  However, if we have someone moving in on the same day, we do need to stay with the 11AM move-out time.

Q: I'm worried that I don't know my move-out date.  In that case, how do I pay rent?

A: If you are in that situation, we will ask that you don't pay rent until you know for sure what your move-out date is.  In some cases, that may mean leaving a check in the home on day of move-out.  Your contract provides for a contractual daily rate (not pro-rate, but close to the same amount).

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.  Please note that a kitchen knife is NOT a screwdriver.  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.
