For Residents
Current Resident Feedback
We would like to announce the launch of a new online survey for current residents within the Stanford Rental Communities.
Thinking of Moving?
While we never enjoy saying goodbye to community members, often a move means leaving Stanford West Apartments.
FAQ
Do all leaseholders (residents over 18) have to be eligible?
There must be at least one original leaseholder that is fully eligible and employed by Stanford University or Stanford Health Care on the lease agreement at all times. Roommates do not need to be eligible. However, any requested change in roommate assignment must be approved by Management, and all roommates must sign a lease (subletting is not allowed). If the original leaseholder leaves their eligible position, they will receive a 60-day notice of nonrenewal. When the original leaseholder(s) vacate the unit, all occupants subsequently added to the lease must vacate the apartment.
What if my position at Stanford becomes part-time?
If you are at least 75% FTE you will remain at Affiliate Rate. If you fall below 75% FTE, you will receive a 60-day notice of nonrenewal.
What if I resign or retire?
Each household will be re-certified annually. Please note, upon retirement a resident will no longer qualify for the Stanford Rate will be served a 60-day notice of nonrenewal.
What about rent increases?
If you sign a lease, rents are guaranteed for the duration of the lease term. At least 30 days before renewal, rent changes will be announced.
