This spacious home includes modern vinyl plank floors, central air conditioning, a smart home system, and washer and dryer hookups. The 1,500+ sq ft home features a one-car attached garage, walk-in closets, generous storage space, and kitchen appliances including a refrigerator, gas range, and dishwasher.

Residents are responsible for lawn care, internet, cable, utilities, and renter's insurance. Pets are welcome for an additional $250 fee and $50 per month, per pet. Each person over 18 must complete an application and background screening. The application fee is $50 per applicant.

Residents are responsible for paying utility charges including water, electric, gas, trash ($22 per month), alarm/smart home monitoring ($53.15 per month), and preventative pest control ($20 per month). Our utility management program initiates service, pays all deposits, and pays the utility companies. You pay us back for your actual usage on the first of the month. A one-time setup fee of $40 and $11.99 per month applies for this service. The rent amount reflects a 2 year lease. Appliances are courtesy items and must be maintained by tenants. A washer and dryer may be rented for an extra fee.

We review applications in their entirety, including employment, income, savings, credit score and history, background check, and rental history. In the event of multiple applicants, tenancy will be granted to the most qualified, based on the above criteria.

A refundable security deposit equal to one month of rent is required to hold the unit after an approved application. Rent is always due on the first. We prorate rent for the first month as required. In some cases, last month's rent will be paid in advance depending on the applicant's credit, savings, rental history, and income.

Photos are from condition before current tenants occupancy. Finishes such as cabinet color and appliances may differ.

Not all Springfield is bad. Also the ymca is a good community even center to. This is my home town and there is still good left in this town. Not all is bad. Also the soup kitchen where it feeds the homeless and also gives the people clothes. There is also basketball courts where the community can get together and play basketball and enjoy it and have fun. There’s a skate park also where younger kids skate and ride there bikes at. There is a lot of bike trails and fields to play sports "
