About this House

OPEN HOUSE on Thursday 1/30/25 from 5:00pm-5:45pm. YES, Available NOW! Applications are FREE to fill out, but I do NOT accept Zillow applications. This beautiful home is fresh off a COMPLETE renovation! Brand new kitchen, bath, flooring, lighting, a/c, furnace, plumbing, electrical, roof, fence, windows, etc. New Fridge, Gas Oven and Dishwasher all included. Home is on a large corner lot with full fenced-in yard. Located near SIU Dental School, in Alton's "Milton Hill" neighborhood. Convenient mud room/laundry room just off the kitchen (1 step-down). Washer & Dryer can be included at an additional monthly charge, or you can bring your own! Home has a nice, clean (unfinished) basement with lots of storage (access via outside doors). This home is well insulated, well maintained, efficient, and clean. Pets are welcome, but are breed restricted, based on insurance policies. Please read each section of this listing thoroughly and you will have all the information you need to proceed. Further inquiries should be sent directly to kiserproperties @ gmail. com.

The application process is QUICK if you submit your applications & proof of income in a timely manner. Each adult applicant (over 18) fills out a separate application and provides 90 days proof of income. Credit Score itself is NOT important but I do look at credit history (ability to pay bills on time, etc.). Applicants must qualify financially based on a debt-to-income ratio, at least 90 days proof of income/employment, and be able to independently cover rent (all leasees and co-signers are responsible for rent). Applications without proof of income will not be reviewed. If you are pre-approved and ready to rent the home, a Credit/Background/Eviction report will be ran at your expense of $35 per adult applicant. However, you will not be charged until you are pre-approved (application with proof of income) and ready to move forward. Incomplete applications (or applications without 90 days proof of income) cannot be processed. Security deposit required to hold the property, first month rent due at lease signing. This home is leased as a drug free/smoke free home, and we appreciate tenants' respect of and cooperation with those policies. Thank you!

  • Someonewhoknows2
    "This is a beautiful neighborhood with a lot of diversity. It has character and old fashion appeal. Large homes, duplex and apartments with its originality. The community has survived the worst although the love and spirit of the city is here. Perfectly located in the middle of everything, the smell of Fast Eddies Chicken or fried rice from the Hong Kong house decorates the air. I love it here, it’s safe with the beautiful mixture of people from all walks of life. Like with any city this area has its flaws, yet the flaws is what makes the beauty of it all!"
