  • A full application deposit may be submitted at the time of application. A receipt will be given recognizing the application deposit and the terms on which the rental will be held for the applicant.  Once application is approved, this application deposit is non-refundable, but will transfer to the security & cleaning deposit upon move in.  Ordinarily a residence will not be held without an application deposit. Application deposit will be refunded in its entirety if denied.
  • After approval, all lease documents should be signed on or before original date of move in with payment of first month’s rent, any balance owed (security deposit, pet deposit, etc.). We will make an appointment to sign lease and go over all information needed to move in.
