APPLICATION GUIDE

Everything you need to know about applying and moving into your new home

Rental Application Criteria

Once you have a home picked out and are ready to apply, review our approval criteria below. The process usually takes 1-3 days on average, however, can take longer if we are unable to verify income or rental history.

Application Criteria and Considerations:

Net income should be greater than 3x rental amount (4x rental amount for group applications)

Income documents should be clear to read and understand

Credit score should be greater than 600 (average credit greater than 600 for group applications)

Bankruptcy within the past 5 years or unpaid judgements greater than $5k will be denied

Rental history should be verifiable; no outstanding balances or evictions in the last 5 years

All adult occupants must apply

Deceptive, missing, or unverifiable information are common reasons for denial or cancelation. Please use accurate and complete information.

Pre-Move-In Checklist

Congratulations, you've been approved! Here's what comes next before we can officially welcome you home. We encourage you to sign your lease as soon as possible and submit your security deposit so we can remove your new home from our available listings.

Security deposits must be paid via money order made out to SNSHN. Rent and other fees can be paid through the app. Pet deposits apply if you're bringing a furry friend.
