  • We do business in accordance with federal, state, and local Fair Housing Laws. We recognize that it is illegal to discriminate against any person because of race, national origin, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, and, in certain jurisdictions, sexual orientation or gender identity.
  • We utilize a thorough screening process to ensure that our residents will be able to pay the rent, to ensure that they will not damage our property, that they will not disturb others, and that they will not use our rental units for illegal activity.
  • Please review our application criteria. If you meet the criteria, please apply. If you meet the criteria and are accepted, you will have the peace of mind of knowing that other persons who reside at this property have been screened with equal care.
  • 1. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR APPLICATION

    All adults to occupy the premises must complete an application form. An application is not complete if any requested information is not fully and accurately provided. If any line is not filled in or the omission explained satisfactorily, the application will not be considered.
  • A photo ID (driver's license or other government issued photo identification card).
  • Head of household must be at least eighteen (18) years of age.
  • 2. SCREENING OF APPLICANTS

    When an application is completed, it will be necessary for us to review several documents to insure that our criteria are met. In addition to two forms of identification of each occupant, the following applicable documents will be required:
  • a. Third-party verification of all income. The household’s gross monthly income must be at least three (3) times the required monthly rent or a qualified guarantor will be required. We must be able to verify independently the amount and stability of your income. (For example, pay stubs, contact with employer, or tax records, at our option. If self-employed, business license, tax records, and bank records will be required.)
  • b. Criminal background check for every household member over 18 years of age for each state or community that landlord deems necessary.
  • 3. CREDIT REPORT

    Landlord is entitled to a credit check on each individual over eighteen (18) years of age, and each such person must consent for such credit check as a condition for the application to be considered.
  • The application will be rejected if the credit reports reveal any of the following:
  • a. Bankruptcy filed within last 7 years;
  • b. Any debts over 60 days old;
  • 4. CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK

    In order to see that none of the residents at our community have a history of criminal activity that would be considered a threat to property or to the peaceful enjoyment of the premises by other residents, we will review the criminal records of each person to occupy the premises. The application will be rejected if the records show a history of any of the following. For the purposes of this application, a “conviction” includes any conviction, guilty plea, Alford plea, no contest plea, or any final adjudication other than “not guilty”.
  • a. Any drug-related conviction for manufacturing, trafficking, or distribution of an illegal substance;
  • b. Any felony conviction during the past seven (7) years involving property damage, injury to persons, or failure to pay amounts owed for which restitution has not been made;
  • c. Any misdemeanor conviction during the past five (5) years involving property damage, injuries to persons, or failure to pay amounts owed for which restitution has not been made.
  • 5. RENTAL HISTORY

    If you are related by blood or marriage to one of the previous landlords you list on the application, or if your rental history does not include at least two previous landlords or home ownership, we will require a qualified guarantor for your lease.
  • It is your responsibility to provide us with the information to contact your past landlords. We reserve the right to deny your application if, after making a good faith effort, we are unable to contact your past landlords to verify an acceptable history. Except as noted, the following are grounds for denial of your application if they occurred within the last three (3) years:
  • a. Creating or permitting any social nuisance or physical hazard for other residents at a present/previous residence;
  • b. Causing or allowing damage or exhibiting poor housekeeping habits at present/previous residence;
  • c. A failure to pay rent in a timely manner at present/previous residence for 20% of the months the unit was occupied by applicant; this includes any payments that were made after any grace period specified by the lease, regardless of whether a notice of non-payment was issued by the landlord or whether an eviction was filed.
  • d. Interfering with the peaceful enjoyment of the property by other residents at present/previous residence;
  • e. A balance owed at move-out to a previous landlord that has not been satisfied;
  • f. Allowing unauthorized persons to live in the unit;
  • g. Furnishing false information to a present/previous landlord;
  • h. Failing to cooperate with or harassment of landlord or its agents or employees;
  • i. Having your tenancy terminated by a prior landlord for non-payment of rent or non-compliance with the lease or the law. If there is only one prior termination for non-payment and the circumstances can be justified by loss of employment or medical expenses, you may be accepted with a qualified guarantor.
  • The application will also be rejected if information reported by applicant cannot be verified or if the application was incorrect and/or incomplete. (For example, if the application contains any false information or if any relevant information has been omitted from the application, the application will be denied.)
    NOTE: If any false or missing information is found after a rental agreement has been signed, the rental agreement will be terminated and all occupants will be evicted.
  • 6. ACCEPTANCE OF APPLICATION

    We will accept the first qualified applicant who is willing to sign a lease for earliest occupancy that we have available.
  • If the application is accepted, each occupant will be required to sign a rental agreement in which they will be required to abide by the rules of the community. The agreement has been written to help us prevent illegal activity from disturbing the peace of our residents and to make sure that we can give our residents the best housing possible. Please read the rental agreement carefully before signing.
