For Renters

To view a “Must Show” property, you may call our office and set up an appointment for a showing during office hours. For properties that are not listed as a “Must Show”, you may check out a key by coming to our office and leaving a $10 key deposit (cash or check). When the key is returned the same day, your $10 deposit will be returned to you.

All applicants are screened based on rental history, credit checks, employment, and criminal background. The nonrefundable application fee is $50.00 for individual persons or a married couple (with the same last name) and $25.00 for each adult thereafter. You may get a copy of the Rental Application from our office or on the Forms and Documents page under Tenants information.

After being approved for a property, you must pay the security deposit in order to take it off of the market and guarantee that it is held for you until you sign your lease. Security deposits only hold a property for 5 days, at which point it becomes available for other applicants. You will be asked to set up an appointment to read through and sign our Residential Rental Agreement with one of our staff members. You may view a sample Rental Agreement on the Renter’s Forms & Documents page on our website. It is required that you have all utilities transferred into your name before you come in to sign your lease. On the day of your lease, you will pay the first month’s rent and a $75.00 nonrefundable key fee. If you sign your lease after the 10th day of the month, your first month’s rent will be prorated. Please also bring a copy of your Renter’s Insurance policy with you. As per the lease agreement, you may sign a lease renewal 60 days before lease expiration. Failure to do so will automatically convert the lease to a Month to Month with an additional $50.00 per month fee added to the current rental rate. You may rent Month to Month for 6 months. A 30 day vacate notice will be required or the signing of a new lease pending owner approval.

• At the first complaint on an approved pet for aggression, damage, noise or other form of liability the tenant can have their pet privileges revoked and will have to remove the pet from the rental property.
