FAQ

How current is the pricing?

We crawl Cornell Terrace's availability and rents directly and refresh daily, so what you see is what the building is asking today. Pricing can move day to day — we'll confirm the current rate with you before you apply.

Is there a deposit or a move-in fee?

There's $0 security deposit when you inquire through Dibze. The only standard up-front costs are a one-time admin fee and a $75-per-applicant screening fee paid to the third-party credit/background provider.

Do I pay a broker fee?

No fee to you — not to tour, not to apply, not at move-in. We help you compare apartments here and at nearby buildings and schedule everything in one trip.

What income or credit do I need?

Most buildings look for household income around 3× the monthly rent and decent credit. A roommate's income counts toward the household total, and a guarantor or larger first payment usually does the trick — just ask.

Can I tour more than one apartment?

Absolutely — save the ones you like with the heart and we'll line them all up in a single visit, in person or by live video.
