Every apartment application is evaluated in the following manner:

Applicant submits a rental application, answering all questions on the application form, and authorizes the employment history, rental history, and credit and criminal background checks via signature and date.

Applicant pays the nonrefundable application fee.

From applicants’ responses to the application questions, management will determine whether the applicants qualify for the requested apartment.

Management will check each applicant’s credit report, employment history and rental references to confirm that all meet our rental criteria. If the applicant(s) meet the criteria, the application will be approved.

This process takes one to two days. Available apartments will be rented to applicants in order that the respective applications are approved. Please complete your application expediently so you do not miss out on the next apartment.
