Applicants may be declined based on vendor risk sources that do not meet the scoring policy of 650 or higher.

The absence of a credit file shall not adversely affect any applicant; however, the applicant maybe required to either pay a higher security deposit and/or be asked to provide a qualified lease guarantor. A lease guarantor must exhibit credit worthiness and the ability to satisfy the rental obligation in the event of default.

Negative rental history is described as including, but not limited to any one of the following:
If you are related by blood or marriage to one of the previous landlords listed or your rental history does not include a minimum of two (2) previous years, we will require a qualified Lease Guarantor for your rental agreement.
