Applications are reviewed in their entirety. Below is a list of requirements for submitting an application, along with guidelines for qualified renters.
One application is required for each future resident 18 years or older. A separate application fee must be paid by each applicant and the same email address cannot be used by more than one individual applicant. An application is not complete until every adult who will be living in the house has submitted their individual application as part of the leasing group. If one or more applications in a group is missing after 24 hours, the entire group application is subject to cancellation and application fees will be forfeited.
We must be able to verify the amount and stability of the household income and confirm it meets our minimum income requirements. Household income must be at least 3x the rent in gross income or 2.5x the rent in net income. Income is calculated on a gross or net basis depending on the type of income verification selected in the application. Income is digitally and securely verified through Findings with Plaid by linking your payroll or bank account.
A Transunion credit report will be automatically processed for all applicants. The household ResidentScore (average of all applicant scores) will help determine rental eligibility and security deposit amounts. Unfavorable accounts which negatively influence this score include, but are not limited to, collections, foreclosures, charge-off, repossession, absence of credit, and current delinquency. Debt to a previous landlord or an open bankruptcy may result in an automatic application denial.
Certain court judgments or types of open collections may result in denial of an application. If, in the last 7 years, an applicant has been through a court ordered eviction, or had any judgment against them for financial delinquency, the application may be denied. Open housing related collections to a prior landlord may result in a denied application.
Any open bankruptcies may result in the denial of an application.
A criminal background check will be completed for all applicants. Criminal convictions for certain types of crimes, including, but not limited to fraud, theft, controlled substances, assault, battery and/or other crimes, and/or for other convictions of illegal activity may result in denial of an application. Being listed on the sex offender registry or OFAC/terrorist database will result in denial of the application.
Each applicant must provide 2 full years of residential history, whether they are a renter, homeowner, student, lived with family, or had any other type of residential arrangement.
A valid photo ID showing date of birth, and a selfie photo, are required.
Lease start date must be no later than 15 days after application submission (for current vacancies that are available now), or within 15 days of the available date for homes that have a future available date.
