Rental Criteria

Applicants must pass through a screening process. Please do not leave anything blank – if it doesn’t apply to you, mark N/A. We will need a COMPLETED application for each adult (anyone 18 years of age and older) occupying the property. Each occupant 18 years of age or older agrees to pay a $60.00 non-refundable application fee.

Employment must be current and verifiable for a minimum of one (1) year. Other verifiable income must equal three (3) times the monthly rent. Verifiable income includes income confirmed by an employer, trust officer, tax returns, or other satisfactory documentation as required. Each roommate should earn 1½ times the rent. If one or more roommates do not, at least one roommate must meet the three (3) times requirement.

If rent is paid in part by a third party, the minimum household income must be $1,500 per month or three times the portion of the rent the leaseholder will be liable for, whichever is greater.

To determine satisfactory creditworthiness, we run a credit report through Resident Screening. All applicants must have at least 75% positive credit. No credit history will be counted as good credit. No open bankruptcies will be considered.

Must have a minimum of one (1) year of verifiable positive rental/residence history and no negative rental history for the previous five (5) years. Rental history will be verified for each applicant.

Per A.R.S. § 33-1317(F), occupancy is restricted to no more than two (2) persons per bedroom.

Not only must Applicant have acceptable credit history; additionally, all Applicants must meet our Criminal History Criteria. Applicants who are registered sex offenders will be denied. Applicants must have no felony convictions less than 10 years old that involve violent crimes against persons or property – including but not limited to murder, arson, kidnapping, assault, bomb-related offenses, robbery or burglary, or terrorism – or that involve the manufacturing or distribution of drugs in any manner.

All other felony convictions must be more than 5 years old. Conviction of any drug-related offense involving possession only, or any alcohol-related offense where no one was permanently injured or killed, must be at least 2 years old. Successful completion of any felony sentence at least 2 years ago, and no new criminal activity for at least 2 years before this application, is also required. No Applicant with any outstanding warrant or crime that is awaiting trial will be accepted.

If the Applicant would like management to review additional information regarding a felony conviction or a current arrest or warrant as part of their rental application, the Applicant may submit that information to management with their application, and Management will review it on a case-by-case basis.

If an applicant fails to meet any one of the four (4) criteria above (income, credit, rental history and criminal history), he/she may be asked to pay an additional security deposit up to, but not exceeding, 1½ times the rent, or be given the option of obtaining a co-signer (who must also meet the above criteria).

If the applicant fails to meet two of the four criteria, the applicant will be required to pay the full 1½ times the month’s rent in security deposit AND have a co-signer.

Every applicant, including applicants who don’t have animals, must complete this process. All animals, including assistive animals, must be disclosed.

You must first fill out a separate PetScreening.com application for each animal. This applies to any animal that will occupy the home, including service animals, therapy animals, emotional support animals, etc.

The first animal is $25 to register, and each additional animal is $25 (these fees are non-refundable). No fee applies for applicants with NO animals or with service animals. PetScreening.com is an independent third-party animal screening service.

Tenants shall ensure that all animals are well behaved and shall not allow the animals to disturb any other residents or neighbors. Tenant shall ensure the animals cause no damage to the property. Tenant agrees the animals shall only be walked on a leash and only in areas so designated by the Owner/Landlord and the Homeowners’ Association.

Tenant will be responsible for any and all damages caused by the animals on the property or in the community and will indemnify and hold harmless Owner/Landlord/Management for, from and against any and all claims arising because of the animals. Tenant agrees that the animals will be licensed in accordance with all applicable governmental provisions. Owner/Landlord and/or Management reserve the right to require Tenant to immediately remove the animals at any time upon any violation by Tenant of these rules.

The landlord will require an executed lease, payment of all move-in funds, and possession of the home taken within seven days of the first date the home will be available for occupancy. If you desire a later move-in date, you may be required to pay a non-refundable holding fee equal to the amount of rent lost by your delay. Landlord has sole discretion whether to accept your request and may deny your application solely based on your inability to perform all required terms timely.
