Rental History 

Applicant rental history shall be evaluated for an approval determination, subject to all state and local laws. 

Applicant(s) that reflect rental housing related Civil Judgements and/ or Forcible Entry Detainer Judgements (evictions) may be declined. (the original paperwork said automatically but we discussed that and decided not to say automatically - is this still correct for you?) 

Criminal History

• Any felony conviction/ record within the past seven years

• All forcible sexual crimes and sex offender registrants will be declined regardless of time. 
• An OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) search report will be completed for each application. Any applicant that appears on an OFAC list is subject to automatic denial. 

These requirements do not constitute a guarantee or representation that residents or occupants currently residing in our homes have not been convicted of or are subject to deferred adjudication for a felony, certain misdemeanors, or sex offense requiring registration under applicable law. There may be residents or occupants that have resided in one of our homes before the implementation of this policy. Landlord ability to verify this information is limited to the information made available by the applicant and third-party credit reporting services utilized. Applicants and/or residents who are convicted of any of the above listed offenses after lease application may be subject to forfeiture of all fees paid to reserve the home or eviction if the conviction/ record occurs after occupancy.
