Application Process & Qualification Standards

Thank you for your interest in renting one of our homes. Below is a detailed explanation of our application process and qualification standards.

Application

  • Each person over the age of 18 who will be living in the home must complete and submit a separate application and processing fee. All individuals must meet the minimum standards for qualification. Expect 1–3 business days for processing.
  • Processing includes contact with employers, current and previous landlords, references, law enforcement agencies, government agencies, consumer reporting agencies, and public records. A consumer report will be used for all applications.

Deposit to Hold

  • After approval, a non-refundable Deposit to Hold equal to one month’s rent is required within 24 hours to hold the property. The rental will be held for a maximum of 14 days. If the deposit is not received within 24 hours, the property will be offered to the next qualified applicant.
  • If the deposit is paid with the application and the applicant fails to qualify, the deposit will be refunded within 14 days.

Move-in Requirements

  • At least 3 days before occupancy, the prospective tenant must provide all required move-in funds, transfer all tenant-paid utilities into their name, and execute the lease.
  • Rent is due on the 1st of the month. For move-ins on dates other than the 1st, prorated rent for the first month and the full rent for the second month are due before move-in.

Rental Insurance Requirement

  • Renters must obtain and maintain a renter’s insurance policy throughout the rental period and present proof of insurance. The policy must include the landlord as an interested party.

Rental Tour Standard

  • To schedule a rental tour, we require a completed pre-qualification form. Tours are only scheduled for applicants whose pre-qualification is approved. This form is a preliminary step to confirm that you meet our basic criteria and does not guarantee rental approval.
  • There is no fee for the pre-qualification form.
  • Tours are generally conducted as open houses or by appointment, typically scheduled for two hours on a Saturday or Sunday. Private tours are limited to Friday and Saturday for multi-unit apartments.

Lease Start Date and Move-in Time Standards

  • Keys must be picked up between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM on the lease start date, with a walk-through and move-in checklist sign-off.
