Rendezvous Trail Apartments
Considering housing needs of CSU employees, CSU has partnered with Tetrad to bring to market 57 below market rate rental units for eligible CSU employees in the Fort Collins area. One bed one bath, two bed one bath and three bed two bath floor plans are available to eligible CSU employees to rent at discounted rates. See below for eligibility criteria, rental rates, pre-screening form, and more. Once you have reviewed the eligibility, rental rates, and any additional information below you can COMPLETE THE PRE-SCREEN FORM.
Rendezvous Trail apartments feature 1 bed/1 bath, 2 bed/1 bath, or 3 bed/2 bath floorplans.
We will have units available at 60%, 80%, and 100% AMI utilizing HUD income guidelines. You must qualify to be considered for a reduced rate. To find out if you’re eligible please visit the eligibility page. Once you have determined you meet the eligibility criteria and agree with the requirements, you can fill out the pre-screen form.
What are some examples to help understand the income requirements and AMI chart? This page highlights 2 different scenarios. One where a household consists of 1 person with a household income of $40,000/year, which the chart shows would put that household at or below 60% AMI. The other a household with 5 people and a household income of $95,000, which the chart shows would put that household at or below 80% AMI. Both would be qualifying incomes for that household size. If you have any questions or need assistance after you have reviewed the criteria, please contact the Employee Housing Programs Coordinator, Audra Montoya at hr_employeehousingprograms@Mail.colostate.edu

RENTAL RATES: Tetrad has projected rental rates available at CSU Rent Projection summary. The 2 bedrooms available have 1 bathroom. These rates are based on HUD guidelines. Thanks to our partnership, eligible employees will also save money on additional expenses such as parking and grounds fees.
TIMELINE: With the apartment buildings being completed in phases, Tetrad has developed a timeline identifying when units will be available to eligible employees, as buildings are completed.
