How important is my credit to the application?
Your credit is one of several factors used in your application. Our application process also considers income, employment, rental history and background.
-
How long are the lease terms?
Lease terms are usually one year in length, usually renewable at the end of each term upon evaluation of tenant’s payment history and adherence to the terms of the lease. Lease-break penalties will be imposed if tenants vacate prior to the end of the lease term, except in cases of military deployment.
-
How long will it take to process my application?
We process applications as quickly as possible. We must verify your employment, rental history, and credit. Verifiable rental history is required and is often the most difficult part of your application to verify. We will call you if we are having trouble obtaining any information. If we cannot verify information we have to move on to another application. If we already are processing someone else's application on the property you apply for, your application may have to wait for that application to be completed. Make sure the name of your landlord is the owner of the property or the property management company. Providing daytime phone numbers can shorten the turnaround time.
-
How soon can I move in?
Your property manager will guide you through the entire move-in process. Once your application is approved, rental deposit and funds are received and the home is ready we’ll get you in right away.

What are the criteria used to qualify?
Three basic items are used as criteria to determine whether a resident will be accepted for a rental home with Residential Equity Management.
- The total income for the household must be at least 3 times the monthly rent. All income must be lawful and verifiable. We will ask for a current pay stub for each applicant. Other forms of verification may include: IRS 1040 (first 2 pages), court documentation, or county aid documentation.
- Credit reports will be run on all adult occupants wishing to rent the home. Applications will not be accepted if evictions, judgments or liens appear on the credit report. In addition, background checks will be run using online public data bases.
- Landlord history will be verified for the last 4 years. Again, if any applicant has had an eviction, the application will be denied.
