Application Requirements & Showing Policy: A $40 non-refundable application fee is required for each applicant 18 years of age or older. All applicants will be screened based on a combination of factors including credit history, income verification, rental history, and overall financial responsibility. Applicants should generally demonstrate:
• Verifiable income of approximately 2.5× the monthly rent
• Strong credit history (generally 700+ FICO)
• Ask me about Alternative Credit Qualifying, Now available in California
Applicants with lower credit scores may still be considered depending on compensating factors such as rental history, income strength, or the use of a qualified co-signer. If a co-signer is used, the co-signer should demonstrate excellent credit (720+) and verifiable income of ~ 5× the monthly rent. If you are unsure whether you meet these guidelines, please feel free to contact the listing agent prior to submitting an application to discuss your situation.
Showing Appointments; All showings are by appointment only and in multiple party showings. All showings must be confirmed directly with the listing agent. Please include your phone number when requesting an appointment. If you schedule through an online platform but have not received a confirmation, the appointment should not be considered confirmed.

Please Note: Most showings may include multiple parties viewing the unit at the same time. Masks are welcome but not required. We kindly ask that you maintain a respectful 6-foot distance from individuals outside of your party whenever possible. If you would prefer to tour the unit without other prospective renters present, please let us know in advance and we will do our best to schedule your showing at the end of the appointment window so you may view the unit privately.
