Qualification & Approval Guidelines!

An applicant must be 18 years of age or older to qualify as a resident. All persons age eighteen (18) and over are required to complete an application for residence. A driver’s license or other authoritative document must be provided as proof of age.

EQUAL HOUSING: We are an Equal Housing Provider. We do business in accordance with the Federal Fair Housing Act and do not discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, ancestry, handicap, familial status or national origin. Additionally, we provide housing in accordance with all other state and local laws if those laws provide greater protection than the Federal Fair Housing Act.

APARTMENT AVAILABILITY: Applications for apartment homes will be accepted on a first come- first serve basis and are subject to the availability of the particular apartment type requested. Whether a particular apartment or type of apartment is available can vary significantly.

PHOTO IDENTIFICATION POLICY: Prior to viewing an apartment home, you will be required to provide a valid government issued photo identification. A valid form of identification shall include one of the following: Driver’s License, Military Identification, Passport or government issued photo identification.

FEES/DEPOSITS: Each applicant 18 years of age or older is required to pay a non-refundable application fee for verification of information and credit approval. A good faith security deposit is also required with the rental application. If the application is accepted, the initial good faith deposit will be applied toward the required security deposit, and if for any reason management decides to decline the application, management will refund the good faith deposit in full. If the application is approved and the applicant fails to sign a lease within the date specified, management will retain the good faith deposit as liquidated damages for any expenses incurred due to the cancellation. All fees/deposits must be in the form of a check, money order or traveler’s check. Sorry, we are not permitted to accept cash.

SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER /ITIN: All applicants must have a social security number or an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) in order to facilitate a credit report and background check. If an applicant does not have a social security number or ITIN, but meets the remaining requirements of the community’s Qualification/Approval Guidelines, a qualified co-signer will be acceptable (see Co-Signer Requirements below).

CREDIT: We use CoreLogic SafeRent, a third party verification service, to evaluate all applicants uniformly and objectively. In determining rental eligibility and security deposit levels, CoreLogic SafeRent uses a mathematical based credit scoring system to evaluate your consumer credit report. Based upon your credit score, your application will either be accepted, denied, or accepted on the condition that an additional security deposit be paid. Co-applicants will be scored together

INCOME VERIFICATION: All sources of income will be considered in determining whether an applicant meets our income requirements (i.e. wages, savings/investment accounts, interest, dividends, rental income, social security, pension, alimony, child support, etc.). These sources of income must be supported by current documentation (pay stubs, bank statements, income tax returns, court orders, etc.). Income documents must be submitted within 72 hours of the date of application. With co-applicants, income may be combined to qualify. If an applicant does not meet the income qualifications, but meets the remaining requirements of the community’s Qualification/Approval Guidelines, a qualified co-signer will be acceptable (see Co-Signer Requirements below).

CO-SIGNER REQUIREMENTS: A co-signer may only be used for applicants:
1. without a social security number or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)
2. with insufficient income
3. with a rental score that does not fall within acceptance levels
A co-signer must have a social security number or ITIN, qualifying income, satisfactory rental history (if applicable) and qualifying individual rental score. If application is approved, a security deposit equal to one full months rent is required.

RENTAL HISTORY: Present and previous rental history (if applicable) will be verified for all applicants. We must obtain verification of a satisfactory rental history within the past five years which includes timely rental payments, proper notice of cancellation or non-renewal, and no outstanding balances, damages or lease violations. If an applicant has ever been evicted, residency will be automatically denied.

CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS: We perform criminal background checks through RESIDENT RESEARCH. Your signature on the Application for Residency authorizes us to check not only on your credit history, but also on any arrests or convictions. You will be required to answer questions on the application stating whether you have been convicted of a certain crime(s), and, if so, when and where it occurred and the disposition of that charge. Your application for residency will be denied if a criminal background check reveals:
● a listing as a Sexual Predator or Offender
● a misdemeanor conviction within the last five years involving the use, sale, or manufacturing of illegal drugs, or the possession of drug paraphernalia.
The fact that we perform criminal background checks does not mean that our residents and occupants have no prior or current criminal histories, and we cannot, and do not guarantee that this community and its residents are free from crime. Verification of the accuracy of information supplied to or made available to us by applicants and credit reporting services is limited.

OCCUPANCY GUIDELINES: The maximum number of occupants per apartment shall be two persons per bedroom. Persons over the age of 12 months old will be included in the occupancy number for the apartment. Unrelated adults (18 years of age or older), residing in an apartment without children, shall observe the following occupancy limitations: no more than two unrelated adults shall be permitted in any apartment. Unrelated adults do not include spouses, children, parents, siblings, grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews or cousins. Any person occupying the apartment for thirty days during any consecutive twelve-month period shall be considered a full-time resident.

VEHICLES: No more than two vehicles per apartment. All trucks or vans must be one ton or less in weight. Truck beds must be free of all commercial articles, and no ladders or racks may be attached. Commercial advertising should be minimal and must be professionally applied. No recreational vehicles (campers, boats, jet skis, etc.) are permitted on the property.

PET POLICY: One (1) dog weighing a maximum of thirty-five (35) pounds each at maturity will be permitted.
