Services
If you are looking for immediate availability, or short-term leasing options, subleases are probably our best option for you. Our available subleases are listed here. Contact us and we'll make arrangements to meet you at the property and answer any questions you have. Most showings require at least 24 hours notice to the existing tenants so same day appointments are unlikely.
Subleases typically involve a "roommate swap" where a new tenant will take over the lease for a single existing tenant. The details and the length of the subleases are included in the descriptions below. Contact us and we'll make arrangements to meet you at the property and answer any questions you have.
We will comply with federal, state, and local law by permitting an assistance animal or service animal for a person with a disability. In those circumstances, our ordinary "pet" policies do not apply and we will not charge any deposits or fees. For more information, please see our Assistance Animal Policy.
Our office park, "Westport Station, " is located just West of the Ames city limits on Lincoln Way adjacent to Highway 30. A wide variety of commercial tenants keep our office park buzzing with activity seven days a week. In addition to our numerous heated and unheated storage units, we have multiple locations ideal for warehousing or storing your business essentials.

Good communication, fast maintenance response, although my closet door fell off at the beginning of my lease and maintenance did exactly what I did to try and fix it and left and it fell off again. Not great at taking responsibility, but they will work with you on making things right. Feels like I can’t listen to music without getting a knock on my door, not sure if it’s just the people or if the walls are truly paper thin. The building is quite, which is nice, but I like music!!! Also, I’ve never met any of the property managers, which I think is strange, but overall they’re okay.

Great communication! Nate responds to emails in a timely manner and sends maintenance within the day. Maintenance is very friendly. Building was cleaned once a week. Storage room is very convenient. Warned many days to a week in advance before entry. Would definitely recommend RentAmes over Campustown Properties!! You will NOT find a better service then RentAmes that is close to campus. Location is supreme.

When I first leased an apartment with this company, it was under a different name and had a different property manager. Nate replaced the former proper manager and it has drastically gone downhill. The maintenance people are all lovely, but Nate uses classic gaslighting to make you feel like you have no right to complain about things that any reasonable person would complain about. I will not be renting from this company ever again.

We rented a house for almost 3 years and Rent Ames was amazing to have as a landlord! We had several things go wrong (Dryer broke, ceiling fan/light died, A/C died) but it was an older house and that was kind of expected. Rent Ames was there to fix or replace it right away! Everyone we worked with was friendly and we had no problems getting a hold of them if anything came up. If I ever was to rent in Ames again I would try and find a property managed by them.

I have never rented from anyone so misleading. Nate was very rude and disrespectful when I asked him questions about what was previously stated to me about the deposite fee. I had a cat so I had to pay an animal deposit fee for $200 plus an additional amount per month. They promised that I would receive my animal fee separately from the original deposit but instead they used the fee to pay for cleaning charges at the end of the lease. (My cat lived there for a few months and did not do an damage to the house.) They did not split the charges equally amongst the cosigners but instead proportionally

I lived at 304 Welch Ave and it was great. The location is excellent as it is just a short walk to campus and the area has some low key restaurants and a convenience store so everything is convenient. Best of all is the management of this property, they are professional, responsive, and truly concerned that you don't have any issues. They keep it very clean, inside and out, they even shovel the sidewalks and plow when it snows. Highly recommend this property and any property Green Acres manages, their people make a difference.
