Every person who will live in the home at least 18 years old must complete and submit an application, undergo our screening process and provide the required documentation. Our screening process requires providing valid government-issued photo identification. You must also pay an application fee. The application fee is non-refundable.

All applications are reviewed with established screening criteria by our 3rd party screening provider, TransUnion. In addition, except as described herein, all applications will be subject to credit and criminal background checks. Credit disputes can be made by contacting the TransUnion Dispute Department at P.O. Box 2000, Chester, PA 19016, visiting www.transunion.com, or calling 888-710-0270.

All income documents are reviewed to determine validity before accepting. Any documents deemed to be altered will result in an automatic decline of the application.

Unless otherwise required by applicable law, applicants must meet a minimum combined income requirement for the monthly rent.

We will obtain a credit report for each applicant to verify their respective credit ratings. An applicant’s income and their verified credit history will be entered into a credit screening model to determine their rental eligibility and security deposit amount.

There are 2 (two) screening results: approval, and denial. Conditions that can hurt this score include but are not limited to inquiries, collections, foreclosures, charge-offs, repossessions, an absence of credit and current delinquency.  

Debt to a previous landlord, evictions in the last 5 years and open bankruptcies will trigger an automatic application denial in accordance with applicable laws.

We may use the results of a rental history investigation in our determination to approve or deny applications.

Debt to a previous landlord, evictions in the last 5 (five) years and open bankruptcies will trigger an automatic application denial in accordance with applicable laws.

Where permitted by applicable law, we will complete a criminal background check for each applicant and occupant who is at least 18 years old.

Our 3rd party screening partner uses the date a decision was made in a case to decide whether to include a criminal record in the screening results regardless of the applicant or occupant’s age at the time of the offense. 

Applications will be denied for any felony conviction up to 6 (six) years before the application date (subject to local laws/requirements).

Applications will also be denied for felony convictions for sex and/or terrorism-related offenses regardless of the conviction date as applicable by law.

We will accept guarantors for applicants who do not meet the required rent-to-income ratio or who would otherwise be denied for their credit history.

An applicant who does not meet some of our criteria will not get an exception because they have a guarantor. Only 1 (one) guarantor is permitted per home. The guarantor must:

• Complete an application and pay the application fee.  

• Have a monthly income of 2x (two times) the monthly market rent  

• Meet all other qualifying criteria identified in our qualification requirements.  

• Sign the lease as a Leaseholder.
