Lease terms

Dear Applicant, Thank you for considering renting my place. An application to rent is available upon request or the Zillow application can be provided. My current tenant screening criteria are as follows: Rental History Each applicant must demonstrate a history of meeting all prior lease or mortgage obligations and leaving any prior rented properties in good order. Significant adverse rental history will disqualify an applicant. Income History Wages, assets, or subsidy assistance are accepted as evidence of ability to pay rent. If household income does not equal at least three times (3x) the monthly payment for which they are responsible, a co-signer, guarantor, or additional security deposit is required. Applicants must include two (2) pay stubs and/or bank statements from the past ninety (90) days with their application. Wages, assets, and/or subsidy assistance are accepted as evidence of ability to pay rent. If household income excluding subsidies does not equal at least three times (3x) the monthly payment after subsidy assistance, a co-signer, guarantor, or additional security deposit is required. Applicants must include two (2) pay stubs and/or bank statements from the past ninety (90) days with their application. Credit History TransUnion's ResidentScore is used to evaluate the applicant's credit history and ability to pay rent when due. A nonrefundable fee equal to the cost is charged to each applicant. A co-signer, guarantor, or additional security deposit is required where the applicant's credit history falls in the 'medium risk' range. An applicant will be declined if their credit history indicates high risk. To avoid a credit history fee, applicants can provide a reusable tenant screening report with the following characteristics, information, and statement: 1. must be in writing; 2. prepared by a consumer credit reporting agency; 3. prominently states the date through which the information contained in the report is current; 4. the name of the applicant; 5. the contact information for the applicant; 6. a verification of source of income of the applicant; 7. the last known address of the applicant; 8. the results of an eviction history check of the applicant in a manner and for a period of time consistent with applicable law related to the consideration of eviction history in housing; 9. the report was prepared within the previous 30 days by a consumer credit reporting agency at the request and expense of a prospective tenant; 10. the report is made directly available to a landlord for use in the rental application process or is provided through a third-party website that regularly engages in the business of providing a reusable tenant screening report and complies with all State and federal laws pertaining to use and disclosure of information contained in a consumer report by a consumer credit reporting agency; 11. the report is available to the landlord at no cost to access or use; 12. the report includes all of the criteria consistently being used by the landlord in the screening of prospective tenants; and 13. applicant must also state there has not been a material change to the information in the reusable tenant screening report. Criminal History A criminal background check is needed of all applicants. A nonrefundable fee equal to the cost is charged to the applicant. If criminal history is found, an individualized assessment of the applicant's criminal history will be conducted. An applicant has the right to dispute inaccuracies relevant to criminal history and to provide evidence of rehabilitation or other mitigating factors related to their criminal background.
