All applicants must pass through a screening process: Please do not leave anything blank. If it does not apply to you, mark “N/A”. We will need a COMPLETED application for each adult (anyone 18 years of age and older) occupying the property. (Applications are taken on a first come first serve basis.) All prospective occupants will be qualified on the following four criteria:
1. Employment and Income
2. Credit History
3. Rental History
4. Criminal History
1. Employment and Income
Employment must be current and verifiable for a minimum of one (1) year. Income must be verifiable and equal three (3) times the annual monthly rent. Verifiable income includes as confirmed by employer, trust officer, tax returns, or other satisfactory documentation as required. Each roommate should earn 1 ½ times the rent. If one or more roommate(s) does not, at least one roommate must meet the three (3) times requirement.
2. Credit History
All Applicants must have an acceptable credit history. To determine satisfactory creditworthiness, we run a credit report through a Resident Screening Program. All applicants must have at least 75% positive credit. No credit history will be considered good credit history. No open bankruptcies will be considered.
3. Rental History
Must have a minimum of one (1) year verifiable positive rental/residence history and non-negative rental history for the previous five (5) years.
4. Criminal History
- All Applicants must meet our Criminal History Criteria.

Successful completion of any felony sentence at least 2 years ago and no new criminal activity for at least 2 years before this application is required.
- No Applicant with any outstanding warrants or crime that is awaiting trial will be accepted. If the Applicant would like management to review additional information regarding the felony conviction or the current arrest or warrant as part of their rental application, the applicant is permitted and encouraged to submit that information to management along with their application.
