Cortland, New York · Walk to campus
Furnished student houses a few streets from SUNY Cortland. Heat, power and water are in the rent. You sign your own lease and owe your own share, never a roommate's — and one person picks up the phone when the furnace quits in January.
Leasing season
Cortland groups sign for next August starting in the autumn.
Start with your group
Three of you can take a unit together. On your own, take a room and we fill the rest — you meet the others before you sign, not on move-in day. Either way you sign your own lease.
The first house
BMJ Property Group is new to Cortland. Our first house is being prepared now for the 2027–28 lease year, and it goes up here the day it is ready to tour — photographed honestly, priced plainly, with every room listed.
Until then there is nothing to browse, because we are not going to show you houses we do not own. Put your group on the list and you will hear before the listing is public.
First look list
Why rent from us
Heat, power, water and trash are in the rent. No surprise utility split at the end of a cold month. Internet is the one bill you set up yourselves.
Every bedroom has a bed and a dresser waiting, and the common rooms are furnished too. Bring sheets, a lamp, and whatever your roommates forgot.
Maintenance requests go to a person in Cortland, not a portal in another state. Urgent problems get looked at the same day.
Every house is inside a fifteen-minute walk of Old Main. In a Cortland February that is the difference between going to class and not.
Plain-English terms, a published deposit-return policy, and a walkthrough checklist we both sign. Parents are welcome at every step.
From first look to keys
If you already know who you are living with, say so and we will hold a whole unit for you. If you do not, come anyway — plenty of people sign on their own and we introduce you to whoever else is in the unit first.
Bring everyone. Open the closets, run the shower, check the parking. We will tell you which bedroom gets the morning sun and which one is over the porch, because those are the two arguments every group has.
Every student signs separately and owes their own portion of the semester rent, never a roommate's. A parent or guardian co-signs. The term is the academic year, rent is quoted per student per semester, and the deposit sits in a separate account.
Keys go out the week before classes. We do the walkthrough with you, both sign the condition checklist, and there is food on the porch. It is not a marketing gimmick — it is how we meet the neighbours.
For the co-signer
You are the one signing next to your student's name, so here is the short version before you have to ask for it.
Already living with us
Saturday mornings through the autumn, or by appointment any day. Bring all of your roommates — it saves everyone a second trip.
