We rent only to applicants whom we have met in person.

1. The first step is to drive by the property.

2. Next, Request a Showing Appointment.

3. The property manager will call you to arrange a showing.

4. When you visit the house, we will show you around and get to know you a bit. Feel free to ask any questions.

5. If you are invited to apply, submit your application.

6. Finally, you’ll receive an emailed link to our background screening service. Submit your ID information and fee payment ($30) directly to the service. This covers a credit history report and criminal history check. If you apply but we do not process your application (i.e. we accept someone else who applied before you), we will not collect the fee.

Important: If you make an appointment and cannot keep it or will be late, please be considerate and let us know the moment you realize it. We are making a special trip to the house for you! We’ll wait 10 minutes and if you’re not there, we’ll consider it a no-show.

There is no need to bring paperwork to the showing. If you are invited to apply, that’s when to submit your application. Applications are processed only from prospective tenants whom we have met in person.

We consider the overall profile when selecting an applicant:

• Application requirement: All residents 18 years or older must submit an application.
• Credit score: We don’t have a minimum criteria, but scores below 680 will be reviewed.
• Credit history: Derogatory items within the last 2 years will be reviewed.
• Maximum residents: Studio = 2 people; One Bedroom = 3 people; Two Bedroom = 5 people; Three Bedroom = 7 people; etc.
• Identification: All adult residents must provide a government-issued ID, such as a driver license or passport.
• Income: The rent should not be more than 50% of your income, though exceptions are possible. Proof of income (or savings) is required.
• Criminal history: A criminal history would be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
• Non-discrimination: We follow all federal and state housing laws. We don’t discriminate based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, familial status or handicap.
• Be honest: We’ll be honest with you and expect the same in return. False or misleading application data is grounds for denial and eviction.

Q: Is the property or unit available?

A: The current status is shown on our home page. As soon as the status changes, we update the website.

Q: My credit is bad/awful/can’t be described in words. Will you consider me?

A: Yes. We realize that stuff happens. If you’re a good person, please apply and we’ll discuss your situation.

Q: I can’t pay the deposit all at once. May I make payments?

A: Possibly. If you have good credit and can pay at least one-third up-front, or have no credit or poor credit and can pay at least one-half up-front, AND offer us an acceptable plan for paying the balance, we will work with you. Otherwise, the deposit will be due up front.

Q: I’m coming from out of the area and would like to rent. May I apply?

A: Sorry, we don’t rent to anyone we haven’t met. Let us know when you’ll be in town and we’ll show you the property.

Q: I’d like to visit the property. When we meet, should I bring anything?

A: No, you don’t need to bring anything.

Thank you for your interest. We hope that you like the property.
