A formula is used to determine whether the applicant has sufficient income to pay the rent for the property in question: Monthly payments plus proposed rent divided by monthly gross income must not exceed 40% to receive an acceptable rating for this category. This is an industry accepted ratio and may be adjusted on a case by case basis. Each property manager is an independent contractor with TRUE REALTY.

  2. Lease: When the security deposit is received, arrangements will be made to sign the lease documents within 7 days. If applicant fails to execute the lease, return the lease within 72 hours of receipt, honor the terms of the lease and/or occupy the property, this shall result in the forfeiture of the portion of security deposits and fees equal to
    Owner’s actual damages and expenses. Applicant(s) acknowledges that TRUE REALTY reserves the right to hold the security deposit until the lease is finalized and applicant(s) should be aware that the property may remain active on the rental market until the lease is finalized.
