Question 1

What does the monthly price cover?

Accepted Answer

One flat monthly charge covers your private furnished bedroom, all utilities (water, sewer, trash, gas, electricity), and high-speed Wi-Fi. No bill splitting, no surprise charges. The listed price is exactly what you pay each month.

Question 2

What is included in the room?

Accepted Answer

Every bedroom comes fully furnished with new furniture — bed, dresser, desk or seating, and storage. You also get access to a shared kitchen with full appliances, a shared living area, and in-unit laundry. No need to buy anything to move in.

Question 3

Are there any additional fees?

Accepted Answer

The listed monthly rate is all-inclusive for rent, utilities, and Wi-Fi. Any move-in or reservation details are confirmed directly by management before you commit.

Question 4

What is 4111 Colfax — is this a shared house or apartments?

Accepted Answer

4111 Colfax Ave North is a newly constructed triplex with three floors and eight private bedrooms. Each floor is its own apartment unit with a private entrance. You share space only with the 1–2 other residents in your unit — not with the entire building. It is not a large group house.

Question 5

What is private vs. shared?

Accepted Answer

Private: your bedroom with a locking door, and all of your belongings inside it. Shared within your unit: kitchen, living area, bathrooms (unless your room has a private bath), and in-unit laundry. You do not share anything with residents on other floors.

Question 6

What is the bathroom situation?

Accepted Answer

Bathroom setup varies by room. Some rooms have a private bathroom; others share a bathroom with one other resident in the same unit. The listing for each room shows the exact bathroom setup before you apply. You can also ask us directly.

Question 7

What lease terms are available?

Accepted Answer

New rentals have a 3-month minimum. After the initial 3-month term, the tenancy can continue month-to-month. Longer 6-month and 12-month terms are also available.

Question 8

Can I apply if I'm relocating and haven't visited yet?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Many residents apply remotely before their move. We offer in-person tours, but you can also apply online without one. We will review your application and respond within 48 hours either way.

Question 9

Can I tour before applying?

Accepted Answer

Yes — book a tour through the website and we'll confirm a time within 24 hours. Tours are in-person at the property. You can also submit your application at the same time if you want to move forward quickly.

Question 10

How does the application process work?

Accepted Answer

Browse available rooms and submit an application online. The management reviews applications within 24–48 hours. If approved, management contacts you directly to coordinate the final reservation and move-in steps. Submitting an application does not reserve a room on its own.

Question 11

What do you look for in applicants?

Accepted Answer

We look for responsible adults with steady income or financial support, a clear reason for the move, and a respectful approach to shared living. We welcome professionals, students, contractors, travel workers, and anyone seeking clean, furnished housing in Minneapolis.

Question 12

Do I need renters insurance?

Accepted Answer

Renters insurance is recommended and may be required under your lease. It is inexpensive (typically $10–20/month) and protects your personal belongings. Ask about specific requirements when you apply.

Question 13

Are pets allowed?

Accepted Answer

No pets. Assistance-animal accommodation requests are handled separately by management.

Question 14

What happens after I'm approved?

Accepted Answer

Management contacts you directly to coordinate the final reservation, lease signing, and move-in details, including access codes and/or keys.

Question 15

Who are the other residents?

Accepted Answer

All residents are screened. Residents are typically professionals, students, contractors, or relocating workers. We prioritize a respectful, low-drama living environment.

Question 16

What neighborhood is this in?

Accepted Answer

4111 Colfax Ave North is in North Minneapolis — a residential neighborhood minutes from HCMC, North Memorial Medical Center, the University of Minnesota, downtown Minneapolis, and major transit routes (I-94, Hwy 169, and light rail connections).
