Thank you for your interest in the rental property listed with our firm. After you have inspected our available properties, you must fill out our Rental
Application.
The $30.00 non refundable application fee must be paid in
cash before you we will process your application. Your completed
application will be held strictly confidential.
We usually need from 2 to 3 days
to process the information you provide. Before you fill
out the application, you should read the following Office
Policies and Leasing Procedures. If you have any questions
concerning our Procedures or Policies, please feel free
to ask us. |
Landlord Verification
We will contact your current and previous Landlords
to check your record of rent payments, your care of the
property, and whether you have fulfilled your lease agreement.
You can be denied if any landlord reports slow payments
or damages to their property. Your application can also
be denied if you have ever been evicted from any property.
|
Job Verification
We
will contact your current employer to verify your monthly
income, your length of employment, and your job stability.
You should be able to demonstrate a satisfactory history
of at least 12 months working on a job. We may call other
sources if you list them as additional income. If you are
self-employed, we require copies of your income tax forms.
|
Credit Investigation
We
will contact a national credit reporting agency to review
your personal credit history. Your application may be
refused if your credit report shows a history of bankruptcy,
unpaid judgments, liens, charge-offs, repossessions, or repeated
late payments.
|
Criminal Records
Check
We will also check
your records with the N.C. Criminal and Civil Records data
base. We will review your criminal history of arrests, any
civil records or judgements against you. If you have a criminal
record, you should discuss your history with us before you
make your application. Your application can be refused if
your record shows a history of property destruction, drug activity,
or Landlord judgements. We also check your name with existing
federal databases.
|
Income Requirements
Your
total monthly income is one of the most essential items on
your application. Our company policy is as follows: "Rent
should not exceed one-fourth to one-third of the applicant's
monthly income." You will most likely derive your income
from your primary job; however, we will consider any other
income sources such as part-time Jobs, Child Support, AFDC,
or Workman's Compensation. (If your situation requires special
consideration because you have no landlord reference and/or
no credit, we may require a qualified Lease Endorser to guarantee
your rental contract.)
|
Identification
Requirements
For reasons of security, we must be able to verify the identity
of each adult occupying the premises. During the application
process, each adult be asked to present at least two forms
of identification. One must be a valid government issued photo
ID card. We will make copies of these documents to attach to
your application.
|
Agency Disclosure
Our
Company provides rental services for property owners. We
represent their interests in all rental transactions. Rental
units are offered to the best qualified applicant and not
on a “first come, first serve basis.”
|
Housing Limits
The
properties we manage have limits as to the number of people
that can occupy each unit. The general rule is that no more
than two people can occupy a bedroom.
|
Fair Housing

We are pledged to
the letter and the spirit of the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development's policy for the achievement of Equal
Housing Opportunity throughout the nation. We support an
affirmative marketing program in which there are no barriers
