$15.00 Tech Fee

PLEASE NOTE-you must have your deposit ready when you apply. The FULL deposit is due within 72 hours of approval.
We do not accept third-party funds for move-in fees, as the average turnaround is 4-6 weeks.

We require a minimum credit score of 575 for the first month's rent and security deposit to move in. If it is lower than 575, you will be required to put down last month's rent as well. You must also have a gross monthly income (before tax) of 3 times the rent.

Well-behaved pets are accepted at this property; there is a $150 non-refundable pet fee (per pet) and an additional $25.00 per month per pet. We require a home visit to meet the pet in person and dog bite insurance for all dogs.

Application Details:
*Application Fee is $45.00 per adult.
*About 50% of our home placements have pre-applied. It takes 2-5 days for approval because we require one job referral and one former landlord referral. Sometimes employers and landlords take a few days to get back to us, so applying beforehand is the smart move!
*Each person 18 or over intending to live in the home must apply separately.

Open houses are held every Thursday and Sunday.
The employees holding the open houses are not the decision-makers on applications.

Rental Criteria:
We have a minimum credit score requirement of 575 for a security deposit and 1st month's rent at move-in; if it is lower than 575, you will be required to put down last month's rent as well.
We do not accept applicants with evictions, outstanding landlord debt, or utility company debt.
We do not accept applicants with arson, distribution/trafficking charges.
We do have a liberal crime policy with the previous exceptions.
We accept the best application for each house.
We take credit, criminal, eviction, landlord references, personal references, and job recommendations into account on decisions.
We do not hold houses if you are approved. Your lease and Security deposit must be in within 72 hours of approval. Once your lease and security deposit is in, your move-in date must be within 14 days.

Tech fee = monthly fee to offset the costs of all the software that allows us to communicate with you online and gives you numerous ways to pay rent.

    "I used to live there for about 6 months this recent year and the violence in the area is very terrible. We were told we had to leave because we were victims to a house shooting. This house is very infested with roaches and mice and the landlords only come to spray repellent outside. There’s mold growing in the basement, the bathroom leaks to the basement with very big holes to the point where you can see the tub from the basement ceiling "

    "The crime is terrible. The neighborhood is not good if you want to be at peace or have children. There are some beautiful houses in this area but I would absolutely not live here. The neighborhood is a little scary. I would never walk my dog or let my kids play outside. There would be a chance of them being hit by a stray bullet, taken or is being robbed. No thanks "
