Rental Application Process and Requirements
Mark Andersen & Associates does not guarantee that any unit will be available upon submission of a rental application and its processing. Processing takes approximately 1-3 business days and if your application is incomplete, unsigned, or there are delays with verifications, the process will take longer.
To insure a timely processing cycle, the following requirements must be met:
- Each person 18 years or older (or an emancipated minor) must completely fill out, sign and date the application.
- All perspective individuals that will occupy the unit MUST be listed, including children and their date of birth. No Co-Signors will be accepted.
- Monthly gross income (before taxes) at least 3 times the monthly rent to qualify for approval. Note: All income must be taxable and verifiable.
- Provide proof of income – at least two (2) months of recent pay stubs. If self-employed, you must provide a copy of your most recent tax return or 1099s.
- A valid identification number to provide credit history and photo ID will need to be provide by each applicant.
- Pay an of application fee of $35.00 for each individual 18 years or older (cash, money order, or cashier check only). This fee does not guarantee that your application will be approved.
We are looking for resident-applicants who have:
- Sufficient income to meet the requirement above
- Good Credit. Open Bankruptcies, are cause for turn down.
- NO LANDLORD/TENANT LEGAL CASES, COLLECTIONS OR EVICTION-FOR-CAUSE.
Landlord will require payment of a fee, which is to be used to screen Applicant. The total amount of the fee is specified on the application itself. As required by California Civil Code Section 1950.6, Landlord’s screening process complies with the policy indicated below:
☑First Qualified, First Approved. Landlord’s written screening criteria are provided together with this Application. Completed applications are considered in the order received, and the first applicant who meets Landlord’s screening criteria will be made an offer to rent. Applicants are not charged a screening fee unless or until their application is actually considered. In the case of payment of a screening fee tendered by cash, check, or money order at the time the Application is submitted, such payment will not be deposited or cashed, as applicable, unless this Application is actually considered. In the case of payment of a screening fee tendered by credit or debit card, payment may be authorized and a hold placed at the time the Application is submitted but such payment will not be charged unless this Application is actually considered. In the event Landlord inadvertently charges screening fees to multiple applicants as the result of concurrent submissions, Landlord will refund the screening fee within 7 days to any applicant whose application is not considered, except as otherwise agreed by applicant. Landlord is not required to refund a screening fee to an applicant whose application is denied, after consideration, because the applicant does not meet the landlord’s established, written screening criteria.
