We appreciate your interest in renting one of our properties!
Please reach out to us if you have any questions regarding the rental criteria.
This housing provider does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, marital status, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, familial status, disability or source of income. We comply with all federal, state and local laws concerning Fair Housing.
Up to three complete and properly submitted applications that meet the screening criteria will be offered the opportunity to enter a lease in the order in which their application was received.
When multiple applications are received for the rental of the same dwelling, we may submit those multiple applications to our tenant screening company simultaneously. Although screened simultaneously, such applications will retain their original order of submission in the application queue and thus applications that satisfy the screening criteria will be offered an opportunity to enter a lease in the same order in which they were received.
Upon being notified that the application satisfies the screening criteria, the applicant(s) will be offered the opportunity to enter a lease and pay a deposit to secure occupancy. Failure to promptly tender the deposit within the aforementioned time specified and/or execute the lease package, as offered, will result in the denial of said application and the next application satisfying the screening criteria in the queue will be given the opportunity to enter a lease.
Please note that if your application is screened simultaneously as part of a batch of applications submitted to our tenant screening company, an application ahead of yours in the queue may be offered the opportunity to enter the lease before you, even if your application also satisfies the screening criteria. If an application ahead of yours in the queue is offered a lease before you and executes the lease, then your application will be denied and your screening fee will not be refunded. All other applicants will be notified.

A complete and accurate application with phone numbers. Incomplete applications will be returned.
Each applicant will be required to qualify individually.
Applicants must be able to enter a legal and binding contract.

Mortgages currently reflecting a past due balance will require an additional security deposit equal to one month’s rent.

(Exception: A biological or legally dependent child of the approved applicant(s) who is between 18-21 years of age does not need to have rental history, i.e. a student still living at home.)
Applicants without verifiable written rental history can be approved for multi-family housing (i.e., duplexes, fourplexes, etcetera) with an additional 100% security deposit.

Upon receipt of the rental applications and screening fee, Landlord will conduct a search of public records to determine whether the applicant or any proposed tenant may be denied for the following:
A conviction, guilty plea or no-contest plea, to any misdemeanor charge where the date of disposition, release or parole, and no additional criminal charges, have occurred within the last seven (7) years.
A conviction, guilty plea or no-contest plea, to any felony charge where the date of disposition, release or parole, and no additional criminal charges, have occurred within the last ten (10) years.
Pending charges or outstanding warrants for any of the above will result in a suspension of the application process until the charges are resolved. Upon resolution, if an appropriate unit is still available, the application process will be completed. Units will not be held awaiting the resolution of pending charges.

If your application is denied due to negative and adverse information being reported you should:
Contact Screening Company
Request a correction if the information being reported is incorrect.
If credit-related, contact the credit reporting agency listed on the denial letter.
If your application has been denied and you feel you qualify as a resident under the criteria stated above, you should write to: rentals@harbick.co. Explain the reasons you believe your application should be reevaluated and request a review. Your application will be reviewed within (7) working days from the date your letter is received and you will be notified of the outcome.
An application may also be denied, for one or more of the following reasons: Applicant(s) make any derogatory or offensive comments, and/or act in a boisterous, threatening, combative, and intoxicated or disorderly manner, during any phase of the inspection, meeting, application or screening process. Landlord will not accept tenant-provided reusable screening reports (also referred to as “portable reports”). All applicants must meet the requirements per the Rental Criteria through screening that Landlord received directly through Screening Company. Resident Score is used when running credit reports.
Landlord allows existing premises to be modified at the full and complete expense of the disabled person. If the disabled person agrees to restore the premises (per fair housing guidelines) at their own expense to the pre-modified condition. We require:
The applicant seeks the landlord’s written approval before making the modifications.

Names of the qualified contractors that will be used.
Appropriate building permits and the required licenses must be made available for inspection by the landlord.

Most applications take between 24 and 48 business hours to screen. A professional screening company verifies applicant’s employment, income, rental history, credit, and checks national criminal background registries. Sometimes the information is difficult to obtain and the screening time may be extended.
We will let you know the outcome of your screening within 24 hours of obtaining the completed report. A Landlord representative will call or email you, if an email was provided, to let you know if you have been approved or denied. The Landlord will only call one member of the party to inform you of the results; we cannot call everyone in the party. We will attempt to reach you for 24 hours to notify you of your approval. If there is no response after this time-frame, we will move on to the next applicant.
