Resident Portal Login

All First Lock residents manage their tenancy through a secure online resident portal. From any device, you can pay rent, submit general and maintenance requests, and access copies of your lease and tenant documents.

New here? When you move in, you'll receive resident portal access along with a welcome guide that includes your contact information and instructions for paying rent. Whether your rental is in Collegeville or elsewhere in Montgomery County, the same resident portal handles rent payments, requests, and documents.

  • Pay rent online.

Pay Rent Online

Our Resident Portal makes paying rent quick, easy, and secure. Residents can make one-time payments or set up automatic recurring payments using a bank account or debit/credit card. The portal is available 24/7, allowing you to pay from anywhere, view your payment history, and manage your account anytime. Rent is due on the date set in your lease agreement, and every First Lock resident receives a 5-day grace period.

Rent Trouble? Assistance for Montgomery County Renters

Sometimes even the best residents run into an unexpected financial setback — a job change, a medical bill, a car repair. If that happens, contact First Lock right away rather than waiting for the due date to pass.

We work with our residents, and we can point you toward local aid agencies serving Collegeville and Montgomery County that may be able to help. The earlier you tell us, the more options there are.

Call our Collegeville office at (484) 222-0495, email manager@firstlockpm.com, or send a general request through your resident portal.

Submit a Maintenance Request

For routine, non-emergency repairs, log in to your resident portal and use the maintenance request link to submit a work order. Our team coordinates the repair with one of our trusted, licensed contractors and keeps you updated on the timeline through the portal. For non-emergency requests, the assigned vendor will reach out to coordinate with you within 24 business hours.

For emergencies that cannot wait, such as a flood or no heat, our team is available 24/7. After any repair is completed, we follow up with you to make sure the work was done correctly. Our maintenance coordination covers every property First Lock manages in Collegeville and the surrounding Montgomery County area.

New Residents: Moving In

Before move-in day, a few items need to be in place.

  • Your lease agreement is signed and executed.
  • Utilities and services (water, gas, electricity, etc.) are switched into your name.
  • Your first month's rent and security deposit are paid.
  • A current copy of your renters insurance is on file.

Settling In

Once you're set, you'll receive your new keys, resident portal access, and a welcome guide with everything you need to settle in. We're committed to providing safe, clean, and well-maintained homes to all of our residents.

Moving Out

When you are ready to move on, here is what to expect. After you vacate the home, we complete an inspection of the property. In line with Pennsylvania law, you will be notified of any repair charges and the disposition of your security deposit within 30 days of move-out.

Pets & Service Animals

Pet policies are set on a property-by-property basis, and many of our homes consider pets case by case. When you apply, you will be asked to list any pets that will live in the home, including number and size. Where pets are approved, the pet deposit varies on a case-by-case basis.

Service animals for individuals with disabilities are not considered pets under federal law. We do not charge a deposit for service animals, and applicants who rely on them are evaluated using the same income, credit, and rental-history criteria as every other applicant.
