One of the best ways to clean stainless steel is by using Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleaner. Pour this cleaning solution on the rougher side of a sponge and scrub with the grain of the stainless steel. Once the area has been scrubbed, rinse the sponge and wipe the surface again to remove the cleaner. A microfiber cloth can be used to help polish the stainless steel as well! This method will not only give your appliance a good clean, but it can also help remove any rust that may have formed.

Apartments are not required to have appliances; however, at Cortland North Brookhaven, residents can enjoy the luxury of energy-efficient, stainless steel appliances in their homes.

Application

Yes, Cortland conducts a third-party screening that looks at credit history, rental history, and criminal background. The screening does not have specific credit score criteria but does flag items such as recent evictions, bankruptcies, felonies, and monies owed to previous landlords. In addition to the screening, we ask for proof of gross monthly income that is at least three (3) times the rental rate. You can visit our Resident Qualification Criteria page for more information.

Yes, Cortland accepts guarantors. Guarantors must also complete an application for residency, undergo screening, and meet our resident qualification criteria.

Security deposits are refundable contingent upon any damage to the apartment home beyond normal wear and tear. Please check your lease agreement for details about our security deposit requirements.

We do offer alternative options for paying your security deposit through our partnership with Jetty. Jetty Deposit lets you make a low monthly payment (or a one-time payment) instead of a traditional cash deposit. To learn more about how Jetty Deposit works and how to sign up, visit jetty.com/cortland.

We do run special offers from time to time. Please check the homepage on our website, our Google posts, or contact our team to find out about any current specials.

We require residents to have renters insurance with at least $300,000 liability coverage.

Liability Only Protection provides a low-cost alternative to satisfy the minimum liability requirement in your lease for only $15/month; however, it’s important to note that this option is not renters insurance and does not provide coverage for personal belongings. Please ask our community team for more details.
