Yes, renter’s insurance is required. The owner’s policy only covers the dwelling, not the tenant’s personal belongings, medical, or liability insurance. For this reason, you need insurance for your property inside the unit.

All leases are for a set period of time. If you are transferred, ask your company what assistance they will provide if you need to “break a lease”. Let us know what is happening as soon as possible so we can begin marketing the property for a replacement tenant. You, however, are still responsible for all rent payments until we are able to re-rent the property. We also charge a release fee.
No. The lease agreement clearly states that the tenant shall not sublet any portion of the property or assign the agreement without prior written consent from Foresight Village Apartments.

Common Maintenance Questions
Please call 970-245-7627 anytime to request maintenance or repair.
Yes, if the maintenance is discovered to be caused by tenant/guest damage or neglect, you will be charged. Also, you can be billed for a service call if you miss an appointment with one of our maintenance contractors.
Open all windows and doors to allow for maximum ventilation. Make sure oven and burners are completely off. Call Xcel (1-800-895-4999) they will send someone free of charge to check all gas appliances for leaks and re-light extinguished pilot lights.
A GFCI is a “reset” button found on electrical outlets in rooms with water sources (such as kitchens and bathrooms). If there is a power overload, the button will pop out and disconnect the power to that outlet as well as all others in the room. In order to restore power, simply press the “test” button and then the “reset” button. If this does not work, please see below. If that does not work, please contact us.
Tenants are responsible for replacing light bulbs as they burn out.
Most properties have there own circuit breaker behind an access panel usually located either in the hallway, one of the bedrooms or outside. The various areas are labeled. If you have lost power to a certain area in your unit, you can flip the switch for that area off and back on (or simply on, if it had been switched off). If this does not work, please notify us right away and we will send a maintenance worker to repair the problem.
In the event of a toilet stoppage, please use a plunger. Tenants will be billed if our maintenance staff is called in to unclog the toilet or if a professional rooter service is required.
These methods are commonly used to open up a clogged drain:
- Plunger: Be sure the plunger’s suction cup is large enough to cover the drain opening. Fill the clogged basin with enough water to cover the plunger cup. Use wet rags to block any outlets (such as a sink overflow) and create a vacuum. Plunge with 15 to 20 strong strokes once you have a tight seal.
- Chemicals: Don’t use chemicals! These chemicals will burn your skin. If they sit in a stagnant drain, you’ll have to find a way to remove both the chemicals and the blockage. Chemicals can also damage metal pipes!
In the event of a toilet overflow or other leak, find the shutoff valve at the base of the toilet or under the sink, and turn the water off at the source. Refer to a clogged drain or stopped – up toilet.
Prevent tub drain clogs by using a hair catcher. These are available at any hardware store. If maintenance assistance is required, residents will be billed to unclog the drain.
Maintenance Requests
Maintenance Requests are collected and dispatched to our maintenance contractors and vendors as needed. They are completed in order of urgency, and are resolved as soon as possible. We will inform you if your particular problem requires additional time. Once a request is made, it is assumed that you have given permission for our crew to enter your unit shortly thereafter to complete the repair. Please note that our maintenance staff cannot undertake any work without a work order originating from our office.
If you would like to report a maintenance problem with your unit or the building call 970-245-7627 and leave a detailed message including your full name, unit and problem.
Appliances
We have included some information on the specific appliances that can be found in your apartment, condo, or single-family home. Hopefully, this will answer some of the questions you may have about operating them.
- Dishwasher: Checking the drain on the bottom of the machine and clearing it of debris is your first step. If this does not work, call maintenance.
- Refrigerator: If the light bulb burns out, unscrew it and bring it to any hardware store to find an identical replacement. If it becomes necessary to defrost your refrigerator, use the defrost cycle and let it defrost in its own time. Rushing the process with a knife or an ice pick may result in damage for which you have to pay. Be sure to clean up the water after defrosting.
- Garbage Disposal: The most common request for a not working disposal when switched ON, is a reset button located on the disposal unit, usually at the bottom, that needs to be pushed in.
Proper garbage disposal use
Use a strong flow of cold water and keep it running at least 30 seconds after noise of grinding has stopped to flush all food particles through the drain line. Always use cold water when operating the disposer to solidify fatty and greasy wastes so they will be chopped up and flushed down the drain. Do not grind bones, or fibrous materials as corn husks, artichokes, onion skins, celery or peelings, such as potato or cucumber as these easily clog the drain. Do not put uncooked fat from meat into disposal as it may clog. Do not pour liquid fats down line. Do not put coffee grounds or eggshells into the disposal.
