Applications for apartments will be accepted on a first come, first served basis and subject to the availability of the apartment type requested. Preferences are not guaranteed. Rental rates are subject to change at any time and without notice.
Applications must be completed and maintained for each prospective resident 18 years of age and over who will be living in the apartment. Any false information will constitute grounds for rejection of the application and the lease will be nullified. A criminal background, credit check and employment check will be completed on each applicant.
1. Applicant must not have any unfavorable criminal history. Unfavorable criminal history will be determined by owner/agent.
2. Applicant must have a verifiable social security number.

If not, then 1-year previous employment. In lieu of employment, verification of income must be provided (previous year’s W-2 forms, court-ordered support). We must be able to verify employment start (and end) date as well as income.

documentation. An additional security deposit may be required.
10. Payment in full: Pre-payment of the full lease term no less than 6-months in advance rent
will override a rejection or a co-signer recommendation due to credit or income. Security
deposit will be the equivalent of 1-month’s rent. Advance payment is not applicable to
applicants who have been denied as a result of a criminal check, open bankruptcy or prior
evictions.
If applicant has not established, or has unfavorable credit or residential history, or is a full-time student, a co-signer may be required. The co-signer must meet all the requirements and complete an application. The co-signer must sign the lease and is advised that he/she is individually responsible as well as jointly responsible for all obligations as outlined in the lease. Co-signers will be allowed for verifiable full/part time students attending an accredited college or university. Co-signers will also be accepted for applicants who do not meet the rent income ratios or Appfolio’s credit screening due to a moderate or high level of credit problems.
Additional security deposits equivalent to ½ or 1 full month’s rent may be required based on credit experience as determined by Appfolio’s credit screening.
