Rental Criteria

Uniform Property Management does business in accordance with the Federal, State, and Local Fair Housing laws. Protected categories under Federal and/or State Fair Housing Laws are race, color, age, national origin, religion, sex, disability, families with children, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, military or veteran status, ancestry, public assistance, housing subsidies or rental assistance and genetic information. We select the best-qualified tenant based on the highest scoring application. We do not accept comprehensive reusable tenant screening reports.

Each application requires that we verify credit history, leasing history, income, and criminal reports. Factors such as your move-in date, pets, and your behavior and cooperation with our staff may also be considered in the application decision.

IN ORDER TO PROCESS YOUR APPLICATION, WE NEED YOU TO PROVIDE US WITH THE FOLLOWING

Completed Application: We must have a separate completed application for anyone 18+ years old that will be living at the property. Please make sure to complete all fields as we only process fully completed applications.

A copy of a state issued photo ID: e.g. driver’s license, passport, military ID

Proof of income for all applicants: Applicants must provide verification of legal income sufficient to meet the rent to income ratio. Examples of verification include, but are not limited to, last two paycheck stubs, payroll report from employer for at least the two most recent pay periods, current proof of government income (such as Social Security, disability, welfare, etc.), proof of retirement income, liquid assets (e.g. savings/bank account, stocks), or any other legal verifiable income. Verification of more than two pay periods may be required if the income is not consistent. If the applicant is hired but has not received a pay stub yet, a written letter of hire from employer detailing wage/salary, position and start date is required. Self-employed applicants must provide a copy of the previous year’s tax return in in Q1 or Q2 of the year. In Q3 and Q4, applicant must also provide documentation of the current

year’s financial performance in addition to last year’s tax return. Gross income is calculated as total income before taxes less child/spousal support, debt service, payroll garnishments for loans, taxes, child/spousal support, etc. Tax free income is divided by .85 to account for the difference in taxed and non-taxed income such as social security, disability, or state support.
