Tenant Information
How much is the application fee?
The fee is $35
What do you look for in the credit check?
We run a full report and the main concern for us is that you haven’t been evicted in the past year, or routinely been late with your rent or other payments.
What is the security deposit?
The security deposit is equal to the rent (i.e. $800 per month for rent= $800 for security)
What is the total I would need to move in?
You need the first month’s rent plus the security deposit plus the app fee.
Example (Rent $800+Security $800+ App fee $35) = $1635 at time of lease signing.
If I find the home I want will you hold it for me?
We will only hold a property for a maximum of 2 weeks with a non refundable security deposit. In some case we will only hold the property for 72 hours with security because of high demand for a property.
Do you take checks?
Yes, but if they bounce there is a returned check fee of $50, and your rent is late and fees accrue from the 5th of the month until your rent is paid in full.
How do we set up a time to see a property?
Give us a call. Make sure you have your finances in order. We won’t waste your time if you don't waste ours.
Do you pay for any of the utilities?
No, it is your responsibility to set-up your own utilities with the proper companies.
Will you work with me on my security deposit? I don’t have it all right now.
No, sorry we cannot make any exceptions or changes to this policy.
How long is the lease agreement?
12 months from date of signing
