· All rents are due and payable, in full, on or before the first of the month. A mail slot is provided in the west hallway of the Welcome Center for the resident’s convenience when paying rent on holidays or before and after normal business hours.

· It is Company Policy not to accept any cash payments or any partial payments.

· Rent payment guidelines are as follows:

-If the resident has not paid by the time the office opens on the second (2nd), they are
considered delinquent and will be charged a late fee according to the lease agreement.

-On the forth (4th) day of the month, residents who have not paid rent will be served a written five-day notice for non-payment and charged a $25 processing fee.

-Rent received on the fifth (5th) day of the month or later must be in the form of a money order or cashier’s check.

-The eviction process will commence the day after the expiration of the five-day notice; all paperwork will be turned over to the attorney and filed in court. Legal fees will be assessed at this time.

Maizie's Here We Come!!

We have been planning this special event since the beginning of December. Now we are ready to tell you all about it and get you excited to join in!!! On January 29th, 2009 we will meet in the leasing office at Empirian On Central, board the Metro light rail and head to Maizie’s for drinks, appetizers…and a DARN GOOD TIME! Here’s the deal…we only have 30 spaces available, so you must RSVP by January 23rd, 2009. If we have more residents interested than we have spots available, we will give away the spots by lottery system.



We will board the light rail at 4:30PM on the 29th, once we reach Maizie’s CafĂ© we will be served wine (Cabernet, Merlot and Chardonnay will be available), domestic beer, and plenty of appetizers through 6:30PM. At the end of the evening we will board the light rail and return home. This is going to be a fantastic opportunity to kick off the New Year in a big way! Those lucky enough to attend will receive more detailed information one week prior to the event.



We look forward to seeing the RSVP’s roll in! Please send an email to kbrender@epmapartments.com or call 602.795.3900 to RSVP.



See you soon!
