Income: Verifiable proof of income totaling at least three times the monthly rent or $2,000/mo. income as a minimum if receiving a subsidized housing voucher.

Credit History:  2 years or more of positive credit history. No credit history will require a co-signer if the applicant otherwise qualifies. Credit scores below 575 will be declined. A credit score of 575-674 will be independently reviewed and may be grounds for denial depending on the type of credit or require a co-signer if the applicant otherwise qualifies. Credit history must be free of any unpaid tax liens, unpaid judgments, and monies owed to a previous Landlord. Bankruptcy if filed must be discharged at least 6 months ago.

Criminal History: Criminal history is reviewed on a case-by-case basis and considered with the entirety of the application. If convicted, must have completed your sentence over 10 years ago. Grounds for denial are crimes against children, pedophile or sex offense, drug-related charges (possession may be exempted), violent crime or crime using a weapon, fraud, or forgery. Failure to disclose any criminal history regardless of severity is grounds for denial of your application.
