Renter FAQs


How much is the deposit?

The application fee is $40 per adult. This can be paid via money order or cashier's check made payable to Stress Free Property Management.

Do you check our credit?

We not only pull your credit report but we check your criminal background as well. You cannot have any money owed to an electric company or landlord for any reason because it results in application being automatically denied. Beyond those two requirements, it just depends on the quality of the rental. If the home resides in an expensive neighborhood, you will need to have excellent credit. However, if the home sits in a blue-collar neighborhood we typically are more concerned about your rental history.
