Lease Application
Thank you for your interest in our properties. Before you go on to the application, please take a moment to review our tenant selection criteria. Application fees are non-refundable, and we want you to be confident you meet our criteria before completing an application and paying the fee.
​
TENANT SELECTION CRITERIA
Pursuant to Property Code Section 92.3515, these Tenant Selection Criteria are being provided to you. The following constitute grounds upon which Landlord will be basing the decision to lease the Property to you. Based on the information you provide, Landlord may deny your application or may take other adverse actions against you (including, but not limited to, requiring a co-signer on the lease, requiring an additional deposit, or raising rent to a higher amount than for another applicant). If your application is denied or another adverse action is taken based upon information obtained from your credit report or credit score, you will be notified.
​
CRIMINAL HISTORY:
Landlord will perform a criminal history check on you to verify the information provided by you on the Lease Application. Landlord’s decision to lease the Property to you may be influenced by the information contained in the report. Any applicants who have been convicted of the following crimes (regardless of when they happened) will automatically be disqualified: Violent Felony offenses, sex offenses, stalking, Felony robbery/burglary, and Felony drug charges. Any applicants who have been convicted of the following crimes within the past five years will be disqualified: misdemeanor drug related charges and theft. Additional crimes not listed may result in an application denial as well.
​
PREVIOUS RENTAL HISTORY:
Landlord will verify your previous rental history using the information provided by you on the Lease Application. Your failure to provide the requested information, provision of inaccurate information, or information learned upon contacting previous landlords may influence Landlord’s decision to lease the Property to you. All applicants must have a minimum of two years good rental history, immediately prior, in order to qualify. Please include contact information for your previous landlord(s) and the dates you lived at the property. Renting from a relative or staying with a friend will not be considered for rental history. A mortgage may be considered for rental history, provided the account is closed and in good standing.
​
INCOME & EMPLOYMENT:
Landlord may ask you to verify your income as stated on your Lease Application. Depending upon the rental amount being asked for the Property, the sufficiency of your income along with the ability to verify the stated income, may influence Landlord’s decision to lease the Property to you. The minimum net income requirement for a single person living in the home is 3 times the rental amount. Each additional tenant/occupant/child requires another .5x the rental amount. Proof of income will be required to process your application. Acceptable proofs of income include pay stubs and tax returns. Other proof of income may be accepted on a case-by-case basis. Applicants who are self-employed will need to provide their most recent 2 year’s tax returns.
​
CREDIT HISTORY:
Landlord will obtain a Credit Reporting Agency (CRA) report, commonly referred to as a credit report, in order to verify your credit history. Landlord’s decision to lease the Property to you may be based upon information obtained from this report. If your application is denied based upon information obtained from your credit report, you will be notified. There is no minimum credit score required. The following is a list of some categories which are evaluated: Ratio of good accounts to bad accounts, debts to previous landlords, eviction filings in the past 5 years, broken leases in the past 3 years, and/or charged off accounts. Foreclosure is NOT a mandatory disqualification but could affect your application decision.
​
FAILURE TO PROVIDE ACCURATE INFORMATION IN APPLICATION:
Your failure to provide accurate information in your application or your provision of information that is unverifiable will be considered by Landlord when making the decision to lease the Property to you. If it is determined that false information was purposely provided on an application, landlord may deny your application. If it is not discovered that false information was provided until after a lease is signed, the lease agreement may be unilaterally terminated by landlord, at landlord’s discretion.
​
PET POLICY:
Only two approved pets in any combination. Domestic non-aggressive breeds (restricted aggressive breeds include: Pit Bulls, Mastiffs, Rottweilers, Alaskan Malamutes, Siberian Huskies, Doberman Pinschers, Akitas, Chows, German Shepherds, Great Danes, Terriers, and Wolf Hybrids) with current vaccinations, cats, and any animal kept confined in a glass aquarium. Dogs will be kept on a leash when outside and the owner is not directly present. A picture of each animal will be kept on file and updated accordingly. Residents will notify management when a new pet is brought onto the property.
