 - 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.

Maximum of two animals allowed per home.
 - Pricing displayed reflects the lowest option for a given lease term and is deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Actual pricing will vary based on the options selected. We may revise the pricing for products and services we offer without prior notice.

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.
 - Tricon makes every effort to display accurate home amenity charge information. However, on rare occasions, a home may have an amenity (and a related charge) that is not reflected on our website. To double-check the amenity charges for this home, please consult with your leasing agent.
