Before you move into your new home, please make sure the following steps are completed to ensure a smooth start to your residency:


Utility Setup

All tenants must transfer gas and electric service onto their own names through BGE (Baltimore Gas and Electric) before moving in.

Your unit will be provided with working light bulbs at move-in. After that, residents are responsible for purchasing and replacing bulbs as needed.

Resident Portal

Confirm that you have received login information for the Downtownian Portal and have successfully set up your resident account. This is where you'll access your payment history, maintenance requests, and important notices.

Account Balance

You security deposit and first month's rent must be paid in full, with a $0 balance shown on your account prior to move-in day.

Renter's Insurance

Upload proof of active renter's insurance (one policy per resident) to your Downtownian Portal before you move-in date.

Friendly Reminder

HVAC Filters: Management will replace the HVAC filter before you move in. After that, it is you responsibility to replace the filter approximately every three (3) months to maintain good air quality and system efficiency.

Light Bulbs: Your unit will be provided with working light bulbs at move-in. After that, residents are responsible for purchasing and replacing bulbs as needed.
