Yes. We do not discriminate based on sources of income such as housing vouchers. We do screen all applicants based on the same criteria regardless of income. If you decide to apply, please attach current proof of all sources of income with your application.

Recent or multiple eviction scenarios are generally a disqualification. Old evictions and any eviction filings are investigated to verify that all debts were satisfied and the party filing the eviction may be contacted to verify positive rental reference.

For more detail, check our application requirements document.

We review criminal convictions via an individualized assessment that attempt to take into account mitigating factors, including facts and circumstances surrounding any criminal conduct, age at time of conduct, nature and severity of conviction, and the amount of time that has passed since the conviction.

Generally, a history of multiple criminal convictions, or recent criminal convictions, may be a disqualification. For more detail, check our application requirements document.

Yes, most properties require a minimum credit score of 620. Some units may have a different requirement, but we do review credit for all applicants. Additionally, patterns of late payment, too much debt vs income, or money left unpaid to previous landlords, credit cards or utilities may be a disqualification.

Our pet policy varies by property, but any animals must work well in rental homes. We may require animals (pets or service animals) to complete a screening via petscreening.com.

Note that petscreening.com charges a fee (currently $25) per pet for this verification. Also, we may charge pet rent. Any pet rent should be noted on the rental ad. Verified service/support animals are exempt from these charges.

Excessively loud, large or high-energy dog breeds may not be permitted due to noise or damage to floors and trim. Pets must be up to date with immunizations and dogs must be registered with the county. The pet deposit is $300 for one pet or $500 for two, with a nonrefundable portion of $75. Verified service/support animals are exempt from these charges.

Renters insurance covers more than just your belongings in the event of theft or catastrophe. In the event the property is rendered uninhabitable (fire, a tree falls on it, etc), your renters insurance should cover the cost of you moving or staying in a hotel. This is called "Loss of Use" coverage.

If you accidentally burn down the property, our insurance company may come after you for the cost of repairs. This is called "subrogation". Likewise, if someone is injured in your home and requires medical attention, they or their insurance may also come after you for those costs. Your renters insurance should cover your liability in those events.
