If the pet becomes a nuisance, causes damages, or otherwise breaches lease terms, monies for damages become immediately due and the Pet Approval shall be immediately revoked.

We require the make, model, color, year, and license plate identification of all vehicles that will be parked on the property. Tenant is responsible to maintain registered vehicles, and to register vehicles directly with any governing Homeowner Association. Homeowner Associations may have additional parking restrictions.

Questionnaire & Other

A quick Questionnaire is placed on the Application, clarifying some Application and Lease Requirements, including the following: Subleasing is prohibited. Smoke and Smoking indoors is prohibited. Operating any business from the property is prohibited. Parking any commercial vehicles on or nearby the property is prohibited.

The Applicant is asked to acknowledge the Agreement to terms and conditions, submit payment for the Application Fee, and submit the Application. Co-Applicants submit their applications the same way.

Applicant References are requested in case of emergency, and the Applicant can provide additional notes and documents for consideration. Exceptions are considered on a case-by-case basis upon review of a complete application.
