Having no rental history does not necessarily disqualify you. We can often work with this situation with a co-signer or asking for last month’s rent up front.

Please note that we deal with each and every application on a case-by-case basis and cannot tell you exactly what options are available until you apply. We have to have the information from your application in order to determine how we can best work with your situation.

You must be able to verify your employment status. We accept pay stubs or an offer letter, if you are moving for a job. If you are unable to verify your employment and income, then we will require the rent for the entire year lease upfront.

Property managers help to ensure the best return on your investment. We thoroughly vet prospective tenants, do exterior drive-by surveys, and periodic full property surveys to ensure that your investment is in good hands and well taken care of. We also take out the hassle by responding to all tenant inquiries and maintenance requests, active advertising and marketing to keep vacancies low, and making sure you are paid on time, each and every month with a statement that is easy to read.

You get to make the call on whether or not you will allow pets at your property, and what restrictions will apply. If you allow pets, we will make sure to collect all applicable fees. If you choose not to allow pets, you may find that an animal has been allowed at your property. According to the federal Fair Housing Act, support animals are not considered pets and pet policies and fees do not apply.

We have a thorough screening process that we require of each and every tenant. We do not allow subleasing, so you can rest assured that every single occupant has been vetted to make sure that you know who is in your property and that they will take care of your property.
