About this House
Take a look at this beautiful home featuring 3 bedrooms, 2.0 bathrooms, and approximately 1,260 square feet. Enjoy the freedom of a virtually maintenance free lifestyle while residing in a great community. This home is professionally managed and maintained by Tricon Residential.
- Please beware of leasing fraud! If someone other than an official Tricon Residential leasing agent attempts to rent you a home that is owned and professionally managed by Tricon Residential, please call our Fraud Prevention Hotline at 877.241.
- This home may be in a community that has rental registration requirements. If so, please note that your move-in date may be delayed pending rental registration approval. Please consult with your leasing agent for more details.
- There is an application fee of $55 (or less depending on the state) per occupant aged 18 or older. Completed applications are considered on a "first-come, first-served" basis. There is a holding deposit of $250 per home, which is credited to the approved applicant's first month's rent after move-in, refunded if the application is denied, or forfeited if the move-in is canceled by an approved applicant. Approved applicants are required to execute a Lease Agreement and submit the full security deposit within 48 hours after approval of the Lease. The Lease start date must be within 10 days after approval (certain exceptions may apply at Tricon Single-Family Rental Communities). This requirement is applicable even if an approved applicant has not seen the inside of the home. Tricon Residential is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Housing Provider.
- Minimum lease term is one-year (13 mos. for homes in California). We collect a security deposit equal to one month's rent for all new leases. Resident pays for all utilities including trash, sewer, and water.
- For homes with an available lease term greater than 18 months, a 3.5% annual base rent escalation will apply.

A monthly Solar Fee will apply to certain homes equipped with a solar system; the fee varies by home. The energy generated by the solar systems can result in a credit to offset utility costs. An administrative fee is due prior to move-in. Other mandatory fees or charges may apply; review the Lease carefully for a full list of applicable fees and charges.
