Frequently Asked Questions

We expect tenants to be respectful of the property they are leasing, responsible in keeping the property in good condition, and prompt in their rental payments. We always conduct thorough background checks on applicants to ensure that the people who rent our properties can meet these expectations. Our background check includes a criminal check and we use the Experian system to check our applicants’ local and national rental and credit histories, and we verify your employment history and income. We also follow up references with past and present landlords to confirm a history of timely rent payments and proper maintenance of the property.

Our application process complies with all local, state, and federal regulations governing rental agreements as well as with the current best practices of the property management profession. We strictly abide by the Landlord Tenant Code and follow all Fair Housing (HUD) Guidelines.

If the owner allows the breed and weight of the tenant’s pets, we will draw up a Pet Addendum to your rental agreement and add a pet deposit of up to 50% of one month’s rent to your deposit. You will be responsible for any damage your pet causes to the property as well as expected to adhere to all local pet owner laws and guidelines.

Late fees are generally a $75.00 flat fee. All rents are due on the first day of each month but we grant tenants a 5-day grace period each month. We will assess a late fee for any rent received after 5pm on the 6th day of the month. Late fees are only waived with Owner approval.
