What You'll Need
Requirements at a Glance.
Review these requirements before starting to ensure your application qualifies.
Application Fee
A $50.00 non-refundable application fee is required for each applicant. Each adult 18 years of age or older residing in the unit must submit a complete and separate application.
Lease Administration Fee
A one-time $125.00 lease administration fee is due upon approval and lease signing. This fee covers lease preparation, any necessary addendums, and the move-in and move-out inspection process.
Identification
Each applicant must provide two valid forms of government-issued identification. One must be a photo ID such as a driver's license. The second may be a social security card, passport, or other government-issued ID.
Rental History
At least 2 years of verifiable rental history from an unbiased third party is required. References from relatives or related parties are considered unverifiable and will not be accepted.
Income Requirement
Household income must be verifiable and equal to at least 2.5 times the monthly rent. Stable employment or income history of at least 6 months is typical. Alternative income sources may be considered. Acceptable documentation includes pay stubs, bank statements, tax returns, or other verifiable proof.
Credit & Background
Applicants must demonstrate a history of financial responsibility. Credit is evaluated based on overall financial profile — not solely on score. Criminal history is reviewed on a case-by-case basis based on the nature, severity, and recency of any offense.
