Rental Qualifications

Dear Prospective Resident,

All persons will be treated fairly and equally without regard to race, religion, sex, national origin, color, familial status and disability in accordance with Federal and State law.

The criteria that will be used to determine your eligibility for residency are as follows:

Legal Status

All occupants must be U.S. citizens or meet the legal resident status requirements under applicable local, State and Federal law.

Income

The combined gross monthly income of all lease signers must be at least three (3) times the monthly rent.

Employment or Income Verification

You must provide a recent (less than 60 days old) payroll check stub. For non-W2 income, you must provide your most recent personal tax return. If you have not received your first paycheck, you must provide us with the telephone number of your employer so that we can verify your employment.

Credit

We will be analyzed by an independent, third party which will obtain data from one or more of the 3 major credit reporting bureaus. Your credit score will determine the amount of your deposit.

Criminal History

A criminal background check will be conducted on each occupant by an independent, third party. Applicants will be denied for any of the following reasons:

*Felony records in the last 25 years

*Any violent crimes against persons or crimes of a sexual nature

*Serious misdemeanors including any drug, theft or property related crimes in the last 7 years

*Name or date of birth matches on the Registered Sex Offender database

*Name match on the OFAC watch list

*Persons who have been charged with, covicted of, or received deferred adjudication for a felony or misdemeanor involving the above crimes

Evictions and Rental Debt

Applicants who have been fully evicted from a rental property within the last 10 years will be denied. Applicants who have excessive eviction filings may be denied. Applicants who owe past due rental debt will be denied unless we can verify that you are currently making payments on that debt.

Bankruptcy

Open, current or pending bankruptcy filings are not acceptable.

Check Writing History

Your check writing history will be analyzed by an independent, third party. You may be asked to pay rent in certified funds and/or pay an additional deposit if you have negative check writing history (excessive "check bouncing").

False Information

Misleading or false information will result in automatic denial and may be grounds for eviction if discovered.

Co-Signer or Guarantor

We accept co-signers or guarantors with full-time students only. In order to guarantee a student's lease, your income must be greater than five (5) times the total monthly rent.

Results

Based upon the review of all of the above categories, your application will be 1) approved, 2) approved with and additional deposit required, or 3) denied. The on-site staff cannot override the decision made by the screening program.
