Be at Peace in Your new Home

Some landlords do next to no maintenance on their properties because they just don’t want to spend the money.  They aren’t concerned about their residents, they are only concerned about money.  Look, we don’t waste money on needless maintenance.  But when something need to be fixed, we don’t hesitate to get it fixed.  In fact, we just won’t work for owners who are slum lords. 

We understand that sometimes bad things happen to good people.  You may have hospital bill you haven’t been about to pay back.  Or other bills that have built up, and you’ve gotten behind.  Just because you don’t have perfect credit doesn’t mean you won’t pay your rent.  We understand that.  We will take your situation into consideration. 

Sometimes, good people make mistakes when they are young.  They may regret those mistakes.  They may be living good lives, and have not had any of those types of issues for years.  Just because you’ve had some of these challenges in your past doesn’t mean we won’t work with you.  We can’t promise to approve you, but we will do everything we can to work with you as long as you do your part. 

If you’ve had an eviction within the last year, or you are being evicted from where you are currently living, we probably can’t do anything for you unless there are extenuating circumstances.  What I mean by that is a landlord unlawfully evicting you or something similar.  We look at every situation individually.  We may be able to approve you if you’ve had an eviction on your record.  You’ll just have to make application. 

YES!  We participate in the Oklahoma City Housing Authority (OCHA) and Oklahoma Housing Finance (OHFA) programs.  We’ve done so for a long time, so we are very familiar with the housing inspections and the paperwork.  If you have a housing voucher, we will walk you through the whole process, and get you into the unit that makes sense for you. 

Yes!  We have an inspection process to catch problems before people move in.  We’ve learned over time that easy to overlook small details.  And, we can’t also see or be aware of many problems before you move in.  However, if there are items that need to be repaired after you move in, we will take care of those items as long as those are necessary repairs. 

1. Your monthly take-home pay must be at least 3 times the amount of the rent. The quickest way to get verification of income is to bring use your most recent 2 pay stubs.
2. You’ll need to pay your application fee for us to process the application.
3. We’ll check your rental reference. Include the contact information for your last two landlords. Having an eviction will not automatically result in denial of your application. We will take into consideration how long it has been since the eviction occurred, and your rental record since the eviction.
4. We’ll check your background. If you have a felony, it doesn’t automatically disqualify you. People make mistakes. They shouldn’t have to pay for them the rest of their lives. Sorry, no drug nor violent felony convictions in the past year.
5. We take section 8, but not on every property. There is a button on the property listing page for section 8 properties. Click on it to find out what we have available. If you are receiving housing assistance, include that with your application.

Not all of our properties are pet friendly, but most are.  You’ll know if it doesn’t because the advertisement will state that it does not allow pets.  The weight limit is generally 25 pounds per pet.  We limit the number of pets per unit to two, but may be restricted to one.  No aggressive breeds / dogs are permitted. 

The pet fee is usually $250 per pet, but may be more depending upon the specific requirements of the property owner.  Please refer to the advertisement for specifics or ask. 

The application fee is $35 per adult.  You must pay that online with your application in order for us to process your application.  If you are having issues paying the application fee, call our office and we will provide instructions on how it can be paid. 

If you want to make sure no one else beats you to the punch, just put down the whole security deposit.  If we have that, we will move your application to the top of the stack.  We will screen your application before any others are even considered.  If your application is denied, all of your money is refunded.
