## Frequently Asked Questions

Your go-to guide to life at Pavona Apartments — from touring and rental requirements to pet policies, payments, and resident rewards. We’re here to support you every step of the way.

### Are pets welcome? What should I know about the pet policy?

Absolutely! Pets are family, and we welcome them here. And just like you, we want them to feel right at home here. Riverside Park and the Heritage Rose Garden are both within walking distance, offering a peaceful setting where your pet can get outside, roam, and enjoy the fresh air. We also host occasional community pet events!

Please note that certain breed restrictions and pet fees apply. View our [Pet Policy](https://www.windsorcommunities.com/why-windsor/pet-friendly-apartments/) and [Costs Overview](https://www.windsorcommunities.com/properties/pavona-apartments/floorplans/#costs-overview) for more information.

### How can I pay rent each month?

Paying rent is simple and convenient. Residents simply log in to our secure Resident Portal, available on desktop or mobile app, to make their monthly payment. Windsor offers multiple payment options, including ACH bank transfer. Residents can view available payment options for their community through the Bilt payment portal.

For added convenience, you can enroll in autopay so your rent is automatically processed on the due date each month — giving you peace of mind and one less task to manage.

Paying through the Resident Portal also provides access to added benefits, including on-time rent reporting (if enabled) and the ability to earn rewards points through Bilt.

Simply [log in](https://pavonaapartments.securecafe.com/residentservices/pavona-apartments/userlogin.aspx) each month to submit your payment, or enable autopay, and you’re all set.
