Roers Perks Program

Earlier this year, we reinvented what was previously known as Resident Loyalty Program to Roers Perks Program. In the past, this program helped connect our residents to local business’ by offering a special discount for living with Roers. We gave the program a fresh start by going back to the basics and working from the ground up. One of the most significant changes to the program was offering the program to not only our Fargo residents, but our employees too!

Behind The Scenes

Our marketing team spent time discussing and planning how we envisioned the new program would work. This included compiling a list of local businesses in the area to reach out to. A letter was sent out to each business introducing ourselves, what we are going to offer in the Perks Program and what is in it for the business. While we awaited responses, a member of our marketing team, Brenna, designed a new card look. Over a few weeks, we started to hear back from business in town excited to be a part of our program. Our goal was to have at least 10 businesses in our program before our soft launch date. We are happy to announce that we exceeded our goal and are currently partnering with 12 businesses!

Our Launch Timeline

At the beginning of May, we started our soft launch to a small group of residents in the area.

In mid-May, all Fargo employees received their perks cards and information.
In the beginning of June, all the residents at The Metropolitan were provided their perks cards. We launched it at The Metropolitan when the first phase of Phase 3 opened!
In the beginning of August, the remaining properties in Fargo were provided with their perks cards upon move in or delivered to their doors if they were a resident that renewed their lease.

Connecting Residents to the Businesses

A few weeks ago, our Roers Property Management Team and Marketing Property Specialist held an event at The View on University. This event featured Spicy Pie pizza for residents to enjoy and a game of bingo with each prize being a gift card to one of our perk’s members! This was a great way to re-introduce the program and explain how the program works to residents.

We want to thank all of our perk’s businesses for partnering with us! If you’re a business owner and would like to receive more information about the perks program, please fill out our form here and a member of our marketing team will contact you.

Our next steps of this program is to increase the number of partnering businesses and to expand to our other locations in North Dakota. Check out our perks program page here for more information and what discounts are offered at each business.

2024 Turnover Recap!

The busiest time of the year for our property management residential team has wrapped up for 2024. Turnover is the time of the year where our properties move out and move in over 100 units from their apartment/townhome/single family home.

Our team handled move ins and move outs between six properties in town, with five being in North Fargo and one property in South Fargo. From maintenance to marketing to leasing agents and vendors, everyone put in all their time and dedication to making this process as easy as possible.

The process takes a team effort to ensure everyone keeps on schedule with their part of the process. From the moment a tenant moves out, there is a short time frame to have maintenance, painters, carpet cleaners, cleaning crews and spot checks completed before the new tenants move in. This year we changed the process slightly to spread out the move outs and move ins so it was not such a strenuous process over a one week period for the leasing team and vendors. The Roers team was able to move tenants into 110 units between July 31 and August 15.

Turnover season starts for the residential team around July 20th to August 15th. During this time, we worked through over 100 move outs, working with our maintenance team and outside vendors in a timely manner. With the new turnover process, we were able to schedule move ins in three different increments. This year, we had a brand-new leasing and maintenance team, and we were able to all work together and accomplish this all as one team. We are very excited for our new residents and upcoming year!

Preparing Your Home For Winter

As quickly as the temperatures rise, it is already time to start dropping again. While everyone is excited for fall or winter, it is important to prepare your home for the cooler weather. If you are a season homeowner or a first time renter, it’s very important to take the right steps to prepare your home for the colder months. By preparing your home for the colder months, you will feel more confident, cozy, and warm inside your home. With the help of our Maintance Manager, Ben Dickson, we have complied a list of tips to help prepare your home.

If you live in a place with a wall AC, turn it off, unplug it, and put the cover on.
Dust off radiators.
Make sure your windows seal up to prevent letting in cold air. Keep the windows closed and locked during the winter.
If you have a ceiling fan, set the fan to circulate clockwise. This helps your apartment stay warm without turning up the temperature.
Test out your heat to ensure it is working properly. If it is not, put in a work order.
Swap out your summer bedding for winter bedding to keep you warm while you sleep.
If you are using a space heater, only two space heaters can run at a time in one unit. If more space heaters are running, this will cause a power outage.

Buy winter essentials before the first snowfall.
Keep a shovel inside in case the snow is blocking the doorways.
Bring out or purchase a shoe tray for your boots.
Test your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. If they seem to be working incorrectly, put in a work order.
Do not turn off your heat if you are leaving for an extended period. Keep your heat set to 68 – 70 degrees to prevent pipes from freezing up and to maintain a warm unit.
If you have an outside area of your apartment or home, cover up your outdoor furniture or store it for the winter to prevent damage.
Keep furniture, curtains and blanket’s away from baseboard heaters as this will block your heat from keeping your apartment warm.

By taking these proactive steps, you’ll be on your own way to enjoining a cozy and invite home or apartment throughout the fall and winter months. Stay safe and warm in the upcoming months!

2023 Turnover Recap!

The busiest time of year for our Residential Property Management Staff has recently wrapped up. We made it! From the end of July to the first week into August, the leasing staff, maintenance staff, and marketing staff, plus extra staff from the Roers office are working around the clock to ensure that all 120 move-ins and move-outs are successful. Additionally, we partner with local vendors to enhance the premier experience for our residents. Not only do we perform our normal job duties, but all staff also fill in to help make sure the turnover days go smoothly. We even assembled our own cleaning crews to go into the units and clean before the next move-in to make sure all move-ins are ready. All move-outs are either in person or no contact, which helps staff and residents efficiently throughout the day.

Upon moving in, all residents are greeted by our friendly and helpful leasing staff. Part of our welcome crew will go over important building information, parking lot passes, and rental insurance. Once all the required information has been collected by leasing agents, your new apartment is ready to call home. All pre-move inspections are done by staff before the resident arrives. If any questions or concerns are found during the move-in, staff are available to help quickly.

“The 2023 Fargo turnover this year was phenomenal. All the staff members worked well together, completing all appointments in a timely manner and welcoming all our new residents to their homes.”

Decorating on a Budget

When living in an apartment, it can feel like you have limited options to personalize your space since you cannot make any drastic changes to the unit itself. There are many affordable ways to dress up your rental space and make it your own! Whether you are a fan of DIY projects, thrifting, or finding a great deal, read on to learn about some simple, budget-friendly decorating ideas to help infuse your own style and personality into your home.

Walls
Mirrors, wall decals and simple wall art pieces are all great options to decorate your space without the hassle of painting walls (if that is allowed at your apartment).

Mirrors are one of the easiest things you can put up in your space to change it up. Mirrors give the illusion of a larger and a brighter space.

Wall decals or removable wallpaper are great options for apartment living because they add some fun, without the potential for damaging your walls since they stick directly to the wall with no hardware required!

Canvas prints or other wall décor can easily be hung to create a statement wall. Whether you find a fun, cheap framed print, or you make some DIY wall art (Pinterest for the win), you can fill a wall easily with these items.

Windows and Lighting
Curtains are a great, inexpensive way, to dress up your space. With blinds usually being included in your unit, you can take it one step further by incorporating some curtains. Whether you use a funky pattern, or a neutral color, curtains can create a sense of warmth and add a cozy touch.

If you are looking for an opportunity to add some extra light, you can add a fun table or floor lamp anywhere in your apartment. There is also the option of adding some accent lighting by finding some cheap, sticky LED lights on Amazon to mount under cabinets, in a bookcase, or anywhere else that could use some brightening up.

Floors and Furniture
Area rugs, runners and bathmats are all a renter’s best friend. These items protect your flooring, but they are also a great way to add some color and comfort into your space.

Buying multi use furniture is a great option to save some space, and some money. Whether it be an ottoman with storage, or a futon couch that doubles as a bed, multipurpose furniture helps to make the most out of the room you have.

Accessories

Throw pillows, blanket ladders and pottery and are all ways to accessorize your unit. Accessories can be moved from room to room and are easily changed out if you change your theme or color pallet.

Adding a houseplant is another great way to add some color and life to your apartment. Don’t have a green thumb? Luckily, there are many low maintenance houseplants out there, or you can go maintenance-free and get an artificial plant.

Where to buy furniture and décor?

There are so many options these days to take and upcycle used items, or to find new items cheap. Between Amazon, Target, thrift stores, and places like Facebook marketplace or Craigslist, you can furnish and decorate your home for less than ever before. Using a selling platform like Marketplace and Craigslist can also help you make some of your money back when you decide to redecorate.

You don’t have to spend your entire savings to make your space YOURS. These cheap tricks to dress up your space will help you go from drab to fab in no time!

Jeremiah Program

Fargo, ND — Jeremiah Program broke ground on its new Fargo-Moorhead campus in early June. The new campus, located at 3104 Fiechtner Drive South in Fargo, will provide safe and affordable housing for 20 determined, low-income families, as well as an on-site early childhood education center, classrooms where the mothers can build confidence and life skills, and spaces where they can meet with coaches to support them in achieving a career-track, college education.

“We have worked hard together to get to this day,” said Diane Solinger, Jeremiah Program Fargo-Moorhead Executive Director. “Many of our community board of trustees and supporters have been with us since the very beginning, even though the peaks and valleys. They have given us unwavering commitment, and together we are building a campus to bring this excitement to life.”

Why is this campus and Jeremiah important to Fargo-Moorhead? Currently, more than 2,300 single mothers are living in poverty in the Fargo-Moorhead area, a number that has increased 16 percent over the last six years. The majority of these mothers have children under the age of four with fewer than half of them enrolled in pre-school…
