Grab these items before you get started for the smoothest experience:
Think of screening as a few quick checkpoints:
Hooray – weβre excited to have you here! Youβll get an email with next steps, including setting up electricity, scheduling your move-in appointment and getting renters insurance. It will also include a Move-In Cost Sheet, which details applicable fees and rent amounts due before to move-in. Review and sign your lease β then youβre officially in!
Application can take as little as 3 minutes if everything is linked and good to go. Manual income verification could take up to 48 hours. Pro tip: for the speediest process, have all your documents ready to go.
Income verification may take up to 48 hours. If approved, the next steps are:
Once those are done and approved, your lease will be generated and sent for signature. Sign ASAP to get everything locked in!
Donβt sweat; weβll email you with exactly whatβs needed! Depending on whatβs missing, youβll either upload it to your portal or just reply directly via email.
We accept a variety of income verification methods:
Identify verification requires you to enter your personal details, your government-issued ID and real-time selfie. If anything is unclear or doesnβt match, weβll send you an email to request that you try again.
Almost all documents need to be uploaded as PDFs via the portal for the most efficient processing. The exception is offer letters, which need to be emailed and must be official letters on company letterhead, signed and dated within 30 days.
Double-check to make sure everything is labeled correctly β if itβs mislabeled, we canβt accept it!
Uh oh! This usually means there was a formatting issue, incorrect labeling, or missing info required for verification. Please try again with an alternative verification method, such as linking a bank account, providing pay stubs or uploading a tax form.
Yep! If your income doesnβt meet the requirements, you can add a guarantor through your application portal or provide their full name and email to have an invitation sent directly to them. The guarantor must meet our credit and income qualifications.
No worries; weβll let you know! Depending on the timing, your application might still be recoverable. If it was closed and youβre still interested, reach out within 30 days and weβll see what we can do.
Pet Screening is required for all applicants with animals. You will need to complete a Pet Screening profile and provide details about your pet to determine any applicable pet fees. If you have an assistance animal, it must go through an approval process, so time is of the essence! Be sure to complete your profile ASAP. Check your approval email for the link to complete Pet Screening.
Jetty is a security deposit alternative option that allows you to pay your deposit in installments or as a smaller one-time payment. (Plus, itβs faster than a standard credit check, while considering more than just credit history.)
If you opt for Jetty, youβll be able to complete your move-in with a lower initial cost. To use Jetty, you will need to sign up through the link provided in your approval email and purchase a bond. Please refer to your “Payment Details” for your approved deposit amount.
Yes, all applicants are screened uniformly through Yardi ScreeningWorks Pro, which adheres to Fair Housing laws. This ensures a comprehensive and equitable assessment of eligibility.
Yes, all personal information is SSL secure. Banking information is encrypted and only accessed once to verify income. No information is shared with outside parties.
There are a few reasons your application might have been denied β common factors are insufficient income or credit history, incomplete/inaccurate applications, incompatible occupants/pets for the unit or frequent past evictions. Give us a call at the phone number at the top of the page and letβs see if we can provide more specifics about your situation.
