A WINTERTIME MAINTENANCE FREE LIFESTYLE

Just when we thought spring was around the corner, Wisconsin weather proves yet again that we aren’t in the clear yet. With the winter season STILL upon us, it's important that we all work together to ensure that our community remains safe and accessible during snowfall.

Our excavation and grounds teams take snow removal very seriously, and we have established protocols to make sure that all common areas, such as parking lots, sidewalks, and entryways, are cleared of snow and ice in a timely manner. This ensures that you can access your apartment safely, and that emergency services can reach you if needed. It makes that “maintenance free” lifestyle even more appealing.

While we strive to keep up with snow removal, there are some things that you as tenants can do to help us out. Firstly, please make sure that your cars are parked in designated areas during snowstorms. This will help our team to effectively clear snow from the parking lot without damaging any vehicles. Additionally, please avoid piling snow in areas that are not designated for snow storage, as this can make it difficult for our team to effectively clear the area.

Another way you can help is by shoveling the snow from your own front door or balcony. This is especially important if you live on the first floor or have a balcony that faces a common area. By clearing snow and ice from these areas, you will not only make it safer for yourself, but also for your neighbors and any visitors to our community.

Also, please exercise caution when walking on any snow-covered surfaces. Even if the snow removal team has cleared an area, there may still be ice or slippery patches that are difficult to see. Wear appropriate footwear with good traction and take your time when walking on these surfaces.

Thank you for your cooperation in keeping our community safe during the winter season. If you have any questions or concerns about snow removal, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team.

Lastly, we wanted to give a huge shout out to our excavation and snow removal teams. They have been tirelessly clearing snow non-stop for a few days now and their dedication to the safety of our tenants and employees is greatly appreciated. Without these hard workers we would all be a lot more stuck.

HELP WITH ISSUES RENTERS FACE WHEN SEARCHING FOR AN APARTMENT

When it comes to searching for the perfect apartment, there can be a range of issues for renters to consider. From budgeting to finding the ideal location, it can be a stressful process. Here are some of the issues that renters face when looking for an apartment and how SCS can help with those.

1. Budgeting: One of the biggest issues that renters face is budgeting. It’s important to consider all of the costs associated with renting an apartment, such as rent, utilities, security deposits, and more. It’s also important to consider if the rent is within your budget and if you can pay the rent on time each month. - Here at SCS most of our utilities are included in the price of rent of the apartment to make budgeting easier for the tenants.

2. Location: Location is another important factor to consider when looking for an apartment. Make sure that the area is safe, close to grocery stores and restaurants, and near services that you may need such as schools or a clinic. – SCS has over 30 locations throughout the state of Wisconsin, so you are sure to find a location that fits your needs.

3. Amenities: Renters should also consider the amenities that are available in the apartment. Are there laundry facilities? Is there a community space? Does the complex have a parking lot? These are all important questions to ask when searching for an apartment. – SCS has laundry available for every unit, community spaces to enjoy and parking available at all our locations.

4. Roommates: If you’re looking for a roommate to split the rent, make sure to do your due diligence. Make sure to get to know your potential roommate before signing a lease. Ask questions about their lifestyle and what their expectations for living together are. – SCS encourages you to find a roommate but if that isn’t your style, SCS offers 1-bedroom and studio apartment options at several of our locations.

5. Lease: Once you’ve found an apartment that fits your needs, make sure to read the lease carefully. Make sure you understand the terms and conditions of the lease, such as rent due dates, pet policies, and other restrictions. – Each of our properties have a dedicated site manager available to tenants to answer any questions they may have about their lease, and they are ready to help them with any needs they may have.

Renting an apartment can be a stressful and time-consuming process. But by taking the time to research and consider all the issues that renters face, you can make an informed decision and find the perfect place to call home.
