The Mills at 601 offers a standard 12-month lease. We also offer 7-11 month leases for an additional premium. Once your original lease expires, you may renew at the same month-length term, a new month-length term, or go month-to-month. We will run a credit check and background screening when you apply. You will also need to supply proof of income, a government-issued ID, and other information.

You can pay your rent in several different ways at our apartments. Our online resident portal through RentCafé allows you to connect a bank account, credit card or debit card for automatic payments. This will be drafted out of your account or from your card every month on a specific date, so you never have to worry about forgetting your payment! We do not accept cards or cash payments in the office. Late fees will be added to any payment made after the 5th of the month. It is your responsibility to ensure your auto-draft payment has cleared your financial institution.

When you move in, you'll receive a move-in packet with instructions about how to sign up for and log in to your resident portal. You may also receive an email from our team with instructions about setting up your portal. Your email address and provided Tcode will be used to set up and access your resident portal.
