Insured amount shall be $300,000 minimum. The amount may seem high but the additional premium is minimal, and well worth it for your protection.
The policy has to name the landlord, "Horizon Real Properties Holdings LLC" and the property management company, "Pinewave Development Group, Inc." as additional "INSURED".
Please note that additional "INTEREST" or such will not be acceptable.
The difference between additional "INSURED" and additional "INTEREST" is that additional "INTEREST" merely obligate the carrier to inform the landlord if there is any change in the policy. Additional "INSURED" means any mishaps or lawsuits caused by the tenant covers the landlord as well. Again, the difference in premium is small.
Many carriers will not underwrite additional "INSURED" policies including but not limited to Nationwide, Safeco, Mercury, Travelers, Stillwater, and Foremost. Please contact your insurance agent to inquire and cancel such policy if they cannot offer the proper endorsement.
As of 8/8/2022, the following carriers will underwrite additional "INSURED" policies: Lemonade, GradGuard, and State Farm.
Without a properly executed insuarance policy, we WILL NOT check you in.
We have TCO (Temporary Certificate of Occupancy) on 8/8/2022 (Monday).
We are sorry for the delay in getting the TCO. As we are focusing on getting the TCO, you may observe that some items may not be working or meet your expectation. Rest assured that we will continue to work on these "punch list" items in the coming weeks even after you have moved in. We will not compromise on the safety of our residents as we work diligently to complete the project.

In order to expedite our repair work for your safety and convenience, we assume you would authorize entry by our construction, maintenance, or cleaning staff by them knocking and waiting 30 seconds. If you do not wish to grant access to your unit, you can 1) explicitly state in your repair ticket in appfolio that appointment is needed to enter your unit; 2) hang a "Do Not Disturb" sign on your front door or bedroom door.
Our staff will honor such requests and a leasing staff will contact you to make an appointment. Please be aware that this may delay the repair being completed.

We have reached a preliminary agreement with the Santa Clara County Housing Authority to lease their vacant lot on 80 N 13th Street.
We are waiting for their attorney to prepare the final draft of the leasing agreement.
Once we sign the agreement, we can prepare the addendum for the first 30 tenants on the parking waiting list. We apologize that we cannot secure a space for everyone
on the waiting list. It is the best we can do after exploring many options in the past year.
Package Locker is working now. Each unit gets one locker to be shared by all occupants. Your keycard will open your locker. Give it a try after you moved in.

You can check out moving carts from us with your picture ID. Since we have a limited number of moving carts, each tenant gets only 2 hours free to use the carts. It will cost $50 per hour after that for a maximum of $200.
Your key card will open the front lobby door, your unit front door, your bedroom door, your package locker located in the front lobby, as well as any amenities.
Take some time to familiarize yourself with the emergency exits.
Due to delays in the building permit process and supply chain problems, we regret to inform you that the 2F gym, game room, etc. will not be ready until September 2022.
You should have received prior to move-in an invitation to register on the Comcast network and create your own password to access the internet throughout the building. This will be a good time to check out the internet and connect your laptop or printer.
If you have a big screen TV, please initiate a maintenance ticket through our tenant portal. [8/8/2022] We will mount one TV (65 inch or less) for free, labor only, in the living room. Additional TV mounting cost $100 each up to 65 inch. You need to provide the mounting hardware.

During the move-in, all cardboard boxes should be flattened and taken to the 1F dumpster area. Same for recyclable material. DO NOT try to put cardboard boxes or large trash bags inside the trash chute. They will be stuck in the middle of the trash chute and you would be responsible for an expensive bill to remove.
All units have a small rectangular shaped hole in your ceilings, that is because we are waiting on back ordered parts due supply chain issues. It is just a cover that we will be installing as soon as we get parts in. The wire in the holes were for future use only.
