Screening Criteria

What We Look For

Our standards vary by jurisdiction. Here is how screening works and where to find the written criteria for your property.

Screening Criteria

Our screening standards vary by jurisdiction and we are currently updating them. Written criteria for the property you are applying to will be provided to you before you apply.

Vouchers and Subsidies

We accept Housing Choice Vouchers and other housing subsidies. We do not refuse to rent, or apply different terms, because an applicant uses a voucher or subsidy.

All Adults Must Apply

Everyone aged 18 and older who will be living in the home must submit a separate application and be approved.

Pets Case by Case

Pet policies are considered on a case-by-case basis and vary by property. Check each listing for specific pet policies.

What If I Do Not Meet All Criteria?

We evaluate applications holistically, not just numbers. If you have a unique situation or explanation (job transition, past credit issues, etc.), please note it in your application. We consider context and will work with you to understand your story.
