Rental Process

APPLICATION PROCESSING: Processing an application normally takes between 1-3 business days. In some cases, approval of Homeowner associations, condo associations, homeowners or unforeseen circumstances may require some applications to take longer. You will be notified immediately upon determination of approval or denial. All adult applicants, over the age of 18, must submit a fully completed, dated and signed rental application, along with the appropriate application fee.

COST: If you decide to apply for one of our properties, there is a $50 per adult (anyone above the age of 18) application fee that is non-refundable. This fee must accompany the completed appropriate forms provided to you by our company, which can be completed online, including credit card or PayPal payment for application fee. Incomplete applications or applications submitted without the proper fees will not be considered. Application fees will not be refunded for incomplete applications and forms.

APPLICATION SCREENING: Upon receipt of your application and application fee, you can expect and hereby authorize that we will (1) check your credit report; (2) check for any past evictions; (3) verify your employment, if applicable; (4) verify that you have income or assets sufficient to pay the rent; (5) verify your previous landlord references; and (6) perform a criminal background screening. We encourage you not to apply if you have bad credit references, have ever been evicted, have bad rental references or a criminal record. If you have bad credit references co-signers may be considered along with additional security deposit.

Credit history and/or court records must not contain judgments, collections, liens or bankruptcy within the past three (3) years. Court Records must not contain eviction filings within the past seven (7) years. We will not provide you with your credit report or tell you of it’s contents; however, we will provide you with the name of the credit reporting agency so you may obtain a copy from the credit bureau. All information collected for the approval or denial of the application is considered confidential in nature and for company use only.

Self-employed applicants may be required to produce upon request two (2) years of signed tax returns or IRS 1099 forms. Non-employed applicants must provide proof of income or assets.

Previous rental history reports from prior landlords must reflect timely payment, sufficient notice of intent to vacate, no complaints regarding noise disturbances or illegal activities, no NSF checks, and no damage to rental property or failure to leave the property clean and without damage when you left the property. We reserve the right to require a co-signer and/or a higher security deposit. Co-signers are accepted at our discretion and must meet all requirements.

If you have been convicted of a felony within the past seven (7) years, this is cause for rejection. Applicant must not have a felony record that was adjudicated guilty or had adjudication withheld for the past seven (7) years, or any conviction of any length of time for any crimes related to drugs, violence, sex, murder and arson.
Any exceptions to these criteria will need to be submitted in writing to Lisa Hall Realty, Inc. for consideration. If approval is then given for such exceptions, additional security deposit, co-signers and/or additional “higher” rent may be required.

MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS: It is possible that Lisa Hall Realty, Inc. may receive multiple applications from unrelated individual applicants on the same property at approximately the same time. If such is the case, we will process all applications for consideration as to what we and/or the owner (at our sole discretion) deem the best applications, which may not necessarily be the first application received. In such cases, more than one applicant may be approvable, however only one will eventually be approved. Because we represent the best interest of the rental property, we will accept the best application, which may not necessarily be the first application received. In order to evaluate the various applications, it is necessary for Lisa Hall Realty, Inc. to expend time and cost in credit reports, criminal reports, and other administrative costs, hence, our policy that the application fee is non-refundable. If your application is approvable, but not the approved one for the property for which you are applying, you may consider applying for other available properties that we may have, without payment of an additional application fee.

PHOTO IDENTIFICATION: We require a valid and current government-issued photo ID (driver’s license, passport, military ID, or State ID).

PETS: No pets (with the exception of medically necessary pets) of any kind are permitted without the specific written permission of Lisa Hall Realty, Inc.  There is a $250 non-refundable pet fee, per animal. Some properties may require higher fees. If a higher fee or rent amount is required, you will be notified at the time of the application. The following pets will only be accepted at the owner’s discretion and may require higher fees: German Shepherds, Dobermans, Pit Bulls, Chows, Rottweiler’s, or any pet containing part of these breeds.

HOMEOWNER AND CONDOMINIUM ASSOCIATIONS: Some Homeowner and Condominium Associations require a separate application and application fees. If this is the case, you must also apply separately to such homeowners or condominium association and remit whatever other application and application fees that may be required. Approval by the homeowners or condominium association is a necessary prerequisite to our approval of your application.

APPLICATION APPROVAL: Once you have been notified of the approval of your application, you must place the holding deposit (cashier’s check or money order only). Even if you have been approved, the property is available for rent until the holding deposit has been received. In the event that you fail to enter into the lease agreement or refuse to take possession of the property on or before your applied for beginning rental date, you shall forfeit these funds as liquidated damages.
Applicant understands that no rental property will be held vacant for more than 15 days, unless approved by Lisa Hall Realty Inc.

PAYMENT OF FUNDS: All initial funds, which include the holding deposit, first month’s rent and pet fee, must be made by cashier’s check or money order. In special circumstances we can also make arrangements for you to pay these funds by wire transfer. Subsequent to these initial funds the monthly rent may be paid with a personal check.  If a tenant moves in after the 15th of the month, they will be required to pay the prorated rent for the current month plus the full second month.

PROPERTY ACCEPTED “AS IS”: All applicants must view the interior of the property before an application can be submitted. The property must be accepted in “as-is” condition before an application can be accepted, except where there is written agreement for maintenance or repair. Verbal representations are non-binding.

OTHER ISSUES: Rents quoted are the rental amounts due if timely received (usually on or before the 1st of each month by 5:00 pm). If the 1st falls on a Saturday, Sunday or Legal Holiday, rent is due the previous business day by 5:00 pm otherwise, the rent may be considered late. If the rent is late, refer to your specific lease agreement for late fees charged.

All properties are non-smoking, meaning smoking is not allowed inside the building. Smoking outside and on porches and lanais is allowed unless in conflict with community rules and regulations.

KEYS: will be released on the first (1st) day of occupancy as stated in the lease agreement. Request for keys earlier must be accompanied with additional pro-rated rent and must have Lisa Hall Realty’s prior approval.

SECURITY DEPOSITS: Security Deposits are security for faithful performance by tenants of all terms covenants and conditions of the lease agreement. Tenants may not dictate that the security deposit be used for any rent due. Unless claimed due to a breach of lease or property damage, the security deposit is refundable to the tenants within 15 days after they move out of the property at the expiration of the lease term and return all keys to our offices.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR: When you rent a home from our company, we strive to ensure that all items are in good working order. Please report any maintenance or repair request during your first 7 days of possession, at which time you will be required to turn in a signed, move-in inspection form.

LEASING AGENTS: Leasing agents provide you access to preview our properties, to distribute rental information, applications, rental process and application disclosures. The rental agent will also submit your application to Lisa Hall Realty, Inc. for processing. The rental agent is not authorized to negotiate on behalf of Lisa Hall Realty, Inc. or the owner. Verbal representations are non-binding. Once your application is submitted to Lisa Hall Realty, Inc., the approval/denial and negotiation process (if any) will be handled by the Property Manager.

EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY: We are pledged to the letter and spirit of United States policy for the achievement of equal housing opportunity throughout the Nation. We encourage and support a program in which there are no barriers to obtaining housing because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. Lisa Hall Realty, Inc. also does not discriminate based on age, parental status, sexual orientation and political ideology. All properties through Lisa Hall Realty Inc. are available on an equal opportunity basis.
