Apartment referrals
DeVry University-Federal Way refers students to RNR Real Estate Marketing, LLC, a national student housing program. RNR Real Estate Marketing, LLC is an independent real estate property management company specializing in student housing. Their Reserved Student Housing Program is ideal for single students. It combines the convenience and affordability of Dormitory Style Living and the independence and privacy of Apartment Living.
Normally, the total cost for an apartment, deposits, utilities and furnishings is quite expensive and prohibitive to students. In this program, costs are minimized by housing three or four students in two-bedroom apartments. Students have the option of sharing a room or having a private room for an increased cost. RNR takes care of the apartment deposits and the utility hook-ups.
The apartments are pre-leased by RNR and are contracted to students on an individual lease basis. Each student is only responsible for his or her own lease payments and will not face additional charges for vacancy or non-payment by roommates.
The Dormitory Style Housing units are located in apartment communities within a convenient and accessible distance from the school. The apartments are two-bedroom units in complexes with many convenient amenities, such as on-site laundry facilities. Swimming pools, weight rooms and clubhouses may be available at select sites.
Furniture and utilities are included in the price of the rental. Each apartment is furnished with a standard furniture package which includes: couch, sofa chair or love seat, and tables, lamps, a dinette set, twin beds (one per student), dressers, and night stands. Telephone and cable installation and service are not included and are the responsibility of the residents.
By having amenity-rich apartments to move in, with utilities on and furniture in place, each student is assured that quality housing is available upon his/her arrival.
To reserve housing, an application and deposit are required and must be forwarded to RNR at least four weeks prior to class start. Those who do not meet the reservation deadline will be housed on an as-available basis.
For students who do not wish to live in student housing, or those seeking independent family housing, RNR will assist youâ€"free of chargeâ€"in finding a suitable rental. RNR will start the process before you arrive at school. They will help students with the qualifying process and act as your agent to get the best possible apartment within your range. They will furnish the student with information and timelines so that utilities can be turned on prior to arrival.
To begin the process for the Independent Housing Program, go to RNR's website at http://www.rnrrealestate.com/ and select Option B for the pre-application.
