Rental Criteria
Rental Criteria
(initial) It is required that your renter’s insurance covers Liability for Property Damage to your premises (interior unit) for
fire, smoke, explosion, and water damage, including water sewer back-up with no exclusions to non-owned property. These are
not necessarily standard coverages. In the event that your renter’s insurance does not cover the claim, you will be financially
responsible for any and all expenses.
Income: The combined monthly income for all applicants must be greater than three (3) times the monthly rent.
(initial) Applicant(s) must be in present position and provide 30 days’ worth of most recent paystubs prior to move-in.
Gross income on paystubs must match with gross income provided on Rental Application and meet the required income ratio above,
or application will be denied for falsification of information.
(initial) If newly employed, a letter must be provided on company letterhead and signed by an officer of the company that
states employment agreement, income, and date that employment will commence, which must be within 30 days of the lease start
date. Gross income listed on letter must match with gross income provided on Rental Application and meet the required income
ratio above, or application will be denied for falsification of information. For all sources of income other than employment,
additional documentation will be required and must meet the required income ratio above, or application will be denied for
falsification of information.
Credit History: Credit history is one of the most important elements to a qualifying applicant(s). An unsatisfactory credit history
can disqualify an applicant(s) from renting an apartment at the community. An unsatisfactory credit history is one that reflects past
or current bad debts, late payments or unpaid bills, liens, judgments or bankruptcies (new credit must have been established with a
clean record when reviewing bankruptcy). If an applicant(s) is rejected for poor credit history, the applicant(s) will be given the
name, address, and telephone number of the credit-reporting agency that provided the credit information, as required by the FCRA.
No credit information will be released from management. An applicant(s) rejected for unsatisfactory credit is encouraged to obtain a
copy of their credit report from the credit-reporting agency, correct any erroneous information that may be on the report, and
resubmit an application to this community.
Rental History: Reasons for denial may include a skip or eviction, balance owed to prior landlord, collections and/or breach of
lease.
Criminal History: A criminal background check will be conducted for each applicant(s). The criminal background is a search of a
National criminal database. An applicant may only be denied based upon an actual, documented criminal conviction. An arrest does
not qualify as a criminal conviction. Applicants may be denied for the following criminal convictions while serving deferred
adjudications or case pending, for FELONY or MISDEMEANOR convictions of a crime that occurred within seven (7) years from
the date of disposition, release, or parole:
Sexual offenses
Physical injury to other persons
Crimes involving threats of violence or harm to other persons
Crimes involving a weapon
Illegal manufacture or distribution of drugs/controlled substances (this does NOT include convictions for mere possession
of drugs/controlled substances)
Damage to property
Theft of property
