- Rental Application – Allows a tenant to be able to see if he or she is financially qualified to rent property from a landlord or manager. There may be a fee assessed and the process takes approximately 48 to 72 hours. If the tenant is approved, a lease along with any further negotiations shall be completed.
- Residential Lease Agreement – Create an agreement between a landlord and tenant over the use of livable property. It is recommended for a landlord to check the potential lessee’s credit before authorizing a lease in order to make sure that payment will be made on time. The standard length of an agreement is one (1) year but may be any term as decided by the parties.
- Sublease – Gives the right of a tenant that is under a current agreement to rent a portion or the entire property to someone else (“sublessee”). It must be allowed in the original lease or the tenant will have to notify the landlord in writing of his or her intentions. It is recommended that the sublessee be screened through a rental application to make sure that he or she is able to pay the monthly amount on time. It is known that the original tenant is still legally responsible for all rental payments as stated in the master lease as well as damage to the property and vacating the sublessee at the end of the term.
