Rentals

Application process

• Homes are rented to the first qualified applicant who passes the nonrefundable background check, signs a lease, and pays a holding deposit equal to and going toward the first month's rent. Until all of these items are received the home is still available for other people to rent.

• Applicants may request an in-person tour of the home before paying for the nonrefundable background check, but under no circumstances is a home rented until all applicants pass the nonrefundable background check. Save time by making sure you meet all of the requirements before touring a home.

• The background check is emailed by a third party, so all applicants must provide a valid email address that is regularly checked.

• Applicants who pass the nonrefundable background check for a home that has already been rented will be eligible for 6 months for any home we have for rent as long as the applicant meets all of the requirements for that home.

 Each applicant must pass a nonrefundable background check that verifies the following:

• Applicants must be honest and transparent in all answers to the qualification questions we ask.

• Clear documentation verifying that combined take-home income is at least 3x the monthly rent.  Employment history with employer contact information is required for all applicants.  No exceptions.

• No past evictions ever for any occupant.  Applicants must provide rental history including landlord contact information.

• Applicants must demonstrate a history of prompt and reliable payment of bills.  Any past due payments, unpaid items in collections, repossessions, or charge-offs are prohibited.  Medical bills are exempt.

• All occupants must have no criminal history of violence, theft, or any crime that endangers other people.  Consideration of applicants with criminal convictions is at our discretion.

• Home occupancy must be no greater than two people per bedroom.

• No bankruptcy within the last 5 years.

• Valid state-issued identification must be provided. A driver's license is acceptable.
