Thank you for your interest in our property. Before you apply to rent an apartment home in our property, please take the time to review the screening requirements. All persons 18 years of age or older, and not dependents, will be required to complete separate rental applications. Applicants with adult dependents, and applying for residency will complete a joint application. The term “applicant(s)” under this policy means the person or persons that will be signing the Lease as “residents”; the term “occupant(s)” in this policy means the person or persons that are authorized occupants under the Lease.
Please also note that these are our current rental criteria; nothing contained in these requirements shall constitute a guarantee or representation by us that all residents and occupants currently residing in the property have met these requirements. There may be residents and occupants that have resided in the property prior to these requirements going into effect; additionally, our ability to verify whether these requirements have been met is limited to the information we receive from the various resident credit reporting services used.
Statement of Non-Discrimination and Fair Housing Policy
It is the policy of this property to comply with all applicable fair housing laws including those which prohibit discrimination against any person based on race, sex, religion, color, familial status, national origin, age, or disability. Housing shall be made available without regard to actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender identity, or marital status.
This property will make reasonable accommodation(s) to persons with disabilities if such accommodation(s) will allow a prospect and/or applicant an experience comparable to those of non-disabled renters.

Qualifying Rental Criteria
Prospective residents over the age of 18 touring the property must present a valid government issued ID, with each ID presented verified through Checkpoint ID prior to touring the property or submitting an online application.
All documentation submitted for review or verification during the rental application process must be unaltered. Any documentation that has been altered will not be accepted for consideration.
1. Occupancy Guidelines – The following occupancy standards apply based on 2 persons per bedroom, plus one per apartment.
* Residents who exceed these occupancy standards during the lease term, will be required, upon the end of the current lease term, to either:
i. Transfer into another available apartment which has more bedrooms; or
ii. Move out
Rent for the new apartment will be at the rental rate at the time the lease is entered into for the new apartment.
2. Age – Applicants must be 18 years of age or older unless deemed to be an adult under applicable law with respect to the execution of contracts. In respect to property jurisdiction within state law some applicants will be required to provide current proof of emancipation.
3. Credit – A credit report will be completed on all applicants to verify credit ratings. Income plus verified credit history will be entered into a credit scoring model to determine rental eligibility and security deposit levels. Unfavorable accounts which will negatively influence this score include, but are not limited to: collections, charge-off, repossession, and current recent delinquency; open bankruptcies, or bankruptcies discharged and/or closed within the past 12 months, will result in an automatic denial of the application.
ADDITIONAL APPLICATION DEPOSITS WILL BE REQUIRED FOR ALL CREDIT RECOMMENDATIONS BELOW AN ACCEPT LEVEL, NOT INCLUDING A DENY RECOMMENDATION.
Refer Credit Recommendation occurs on applicants with little or no credit history. In such cases, additional checks for rental and income/employment will be completed. If the criteria are met in these checks, an additional deposit will be required. On rental history, applicant must have 12 months of positive rental history within the past 24 months. (Please refer to Clause 8 of this document for detailed information on rental history requirements.) When no rental history exists, an additional deposit is required.
4. Income – Gross income for all applicants in one apartment home will be combined and entered into the credit scoring model for income eligibility. All applicants will be asked to produce consecutive and most recent pay stubs for the last 4 weeks from Application Date. If handwritten pay stubs are supplied, the documents must be validly notarized to be deemed sufficient. Applicants must have a minimum combined gross income of 2.5 times the monthly rent. Additional sources of verifiable income may be considered. These sources may include: child support, grants, pensions, GI benefits, disability, trust funds, social security and savings accounts. (The applicant must supply six current consecutive months of bank statements if any of the additional sources of income listed above cannot be provided directly from the supplier.) We use a third-party service to verify the authenticity of any qualification documents.
Some credit scoring results will necessitate further income verification. In such instances, verification with employer will be completed or applicant may be asked to produce additional financial statements/records.
5. Employment – If employment is to begin work shortly, the applicant must provide a “letter of intent” to hire from the employer.
6. Self-Employment, Retired or Unemployed – Such applicants must provide the previous year’s income tax return and the previous two month’s bank statements, or twelve months of financial statements and must exhibit no negative references. Seasonal employment must be verified by providing the prior year’s tax return.
7. Criminal History – A criminal background check will be conducted for each applicant and occupant age 18 years or more. A landlord is not required to rent to any person whose tenancy would constitute a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals or whose tenancy would result in substantial physical damage to the property of others.
Any conviction for manufacture or distribution of any federally controlled substance and applicants who are required to register as sex offenders for life will result in an automatic denial of tenancy.
All other criminal convictions will require additional screening, which will require additional time for screening and an additional charge of $15.00, which shall be paid in full prior to the additional criminal screening, within 10 days of the initial screening result.
When you apply, screening will be run on income, credit, other areas in the screening criteria and criminal history. If the screening passes the non-criminal requirements and you have no criminal convictions, then your application may be accepted immediately. If you do have criminal convictions, you may be given a conditional approval or may not be approved to rent, pending the outcome of the criminal screening, if the convictions would constitute a direct threat to the health or safety of other individuals or whose tenancy would result in substantial physical damage to the property of others.
Determinations as to criminal screening will be made on a case by case basis, and will be based on the following factors and information, which will be required for every conviction, and we cannot complete the application screening without this information: 1) the facts of the crime you were convicted of; 2) the actual charge you were convicted of; 3) your age at the time of the conviction; 4) criminal convictions prior to the conviction; 5) criminal convictions and pending charges since the conviction; 6) how much time has passed since the conviction; and for drug possession charges 7) if you are in, or have completed recovery or treatment since the conviction.
Failure to provide any information is a basis for denial of tenancy.
Please remember that this requirement does not constitute a guarantee or representation that residents or occupants currently residing in our property have not been convicted of or subject to deferred adjudication for a felony, certain misdemeanors or sex offenses requiring registration under applicable law; there may be residents or occupants that have resided in the property prior to this requirement going into effect;additionally, our ability to verify this information is limited to the information made available to us by the resident credit reporting services used.
