How does the application process work?
You will need to fill-out an application and pay $50 per person. The application will take into consideration your previous rental/landlord history, eviction search, court cases for landlord/tenant issues, employment/income verification, credit check, and criminal/background check.
How do I know if I make enough to qualify for one of your rental units?
Although we cannot offer an approval without a full application, as a general rule an application should have monthly gross income that is three times the rental amount. Additional debt and monthly obligations will also have to be taken into consideration. Try our calculator below to help you get started.
What credit score do I need?
We consider the application as a whole versus just one part. But in general a credit score of 680 or above is good, 620-679 is okay, and under 620 is poor. We generally do not consider credit scores below 650. If you are unsure what your credit score is, consider finding out yourself by clicking HERE.

We would only accept such programs if the applicant meets all the typical requirements including, but not limited to, a good credit score, positive previous rental/landlord history, no history of evictions or adverse court cases regarding landlord/tenant issues, pass a criminal/background check, and be able to fulfill security deposit requirements.
