It takes approximately 24-48 hours, Monday-Friday, to process an application.  Do NOT assume your application has been denied after the expiration of 2 days.  Setbacks with your current landlord or employer may be the hold up.  Call our office during business hours to verify.

What if there is a prior eviction on my credit?

Previous evictions will result in automatic rejection.

I filed for bankruptcy. Can I still apply?

Your bankruptcy must be filed one year prior, discharged or have good credit history since.

Can I still apply even if I haven’t given my current landlord notice?

Yes.  However since most landlords require a 30 Day Notice To Vacate, and we can only hold a vacant apartment for one week, you may possibly be paying double rent.

How long can you hold a unit for?

We can hold a unit for an approved applicant for 1 week with the security deposit paid in a cashier’s check or money order only.  You may choose not to move-in after that week, but your rent charges will begin at that point.

I am unable to move in as scheduled, can I still get my money back?

No.  The Deposit to Hold money is not refundable.  It will be applied toward all costs incurred until the next applicant moves in.

Can I move in even if my roommate is unavailable during the scheduled date?

Yes.  All applicants must sign the rental agreement and move in money received prior to receiving keys.
