How To Secure Your Dream Apartment

Step 1 - Exploring Your Options

Before you begin your search, think about this question: What is essential to have in your new place? Your response will help refine your search quite a bit. You may wish to dwell in a well-liked location or have access to specific amenities. Hopefully, SOMO Flats is one of your top options!

Step 2 - Schedule A Tour

Always tour an apartment and community before coming to a decision. Pictures will only tell you so much of a prospective community. Tour bookings may be made via email, text, or phone. Many communities offer both self-guided and guided tours.

Step 3 - Explore The Community

You might like aspects of several communities but are unsure which one is the ideal fit. Checking things out things in person is the best way to make a decision. When touring, reflect on the following factors:

  • Location
  • Lifestyle compatibility
  • In-unit features
  • Community amenities
  • Floor plan

Will you have sufficient closet space? Do you like the staff? Make a pros and cons list to help you decide. Remember to scan reviews from current and past Residents.

Step 4 - Apply

Once you make a decision, you’re ready to apply. SOMO Flats lets you apply for an apartment online, or we can provide you a separate application link. If you find a move-in special, you’ll need to act quickly, as these great deals won’t last. There may be upfront charges and additional supporting documentation needed. If there are multiple Residents, ensure everybody is listed on the application. That’s all you need to do! Complete the form, and one of our team members will respond shortly.

Step 5 - Move In!
