Moving In
Before move-in, please make sure your lease is signed, required payment/deposit is complete, and your move-in date has been confirmed. Access instructions are typically sent before your move-in by text or email. Text is our default method unless otherwise arranged. For the smoothest experience, we recommend moving in Monday-Friday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM, when our team is most available to help. Which room is mine? The day before move-in, our team will send your access instructions for the home and your bedroom. These are typically sent by text or email. Weekend Move-ins? Our team is not fully staffed on weekends, so if you are planning a weekend move-in, please make sure you have confirmed access ahead of time. We do our best to assist with weekend requests, but response times may be delayed if immediate help is needed. For the smoothest experience, we recommend scheduling your move-in Monday-Friday between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM. My front door code isn’t working?

There are no assigned spots unless specifically designated as paid parking. Each property is designed to accommodate at least one vehicle per Member using these options. Parking Types Free Parking: First-come, first-served based on the priorities below Paid Parking: Designated spaces available for an additional fee Paid parking requires a CRR parking decal and is subject to all decal rules below General Parking Rules If a Member brings a vehicle, the following rules apply.

Decal Display Rules: Must be placed on the front windshield Must be fully visible from outside the vehicle (3–5 feet away) Must be unobstructed at all times If we cannot see it, it does not count. Obstructed or Improperly Displayed Decals A vehicle is considered non-compliant if the decal is: Placed behind another pass or permit (school, work, visitor, etc.) Partially covered or blocked in any way Hidden by tint strips, sunshades, or windshield clutter In these cases, the vehicle is treated as if no decal is present .

For security purposes, the lock codes for Community Room Rentals are not activated until a Member's move-in day. On your move-in day, the code listed in your lease will be activated OR you will receive a text to download the Yale app to provide access to your door(s). See How do I get access to my room, are there keys I should get? A lock can often be tricky to figure out the first time you use it. Here are a few tips to try when the lock code is not working. Double check the codes provided in your lease. Pay attention to the instructions as some doors require the numerical code as well as a # or check mark character on the lock. Room Door: Enter the code and wait for a long beep (SohoMill) or the sounds of the door unlocking (Yale). Then turn the knob to the right. If that doesn’t work, repeat the previous instructions but turn the know to the left. If you are still unable to access the home or your room: Text Member Services. Describe the problem and send a photo or video as applicable. Please allow Member Services 30 minutes to respond. In almost all cases, Member Services will be able to remedy the situation in a reasonable amount of time. See Also It’s Move In Day, Now What? See Also - Locked Out of Room - Dead Battery

Our team will send the correct access instructions before your confirmed move-in.
