Updated: October 4, 2023

Thank you so much for your interest in Beyond Homes! We look forward to assisting you.

Please review the application requirements below to ensure a swift processing time!

A completed application consists of:

• Completion of application for all individuals 18 years or older who will be living in the home, even if they will not be financially responsible.

• Clear, legible, and up-to-date Government issued photo ID.

• Three (3) clear, recent \"Selfie\" photos to verify identity with the following perspectives: left profile, right profile, and front facing profile. This is required to proceed with the application

• Payment of all necessary fees. ($50 application fee per applicant, non-refundable)

• Completion and passing of criminal, rental, and credit background checks.

• For approval, we require a credit score of 670 or higher (or conditionally approve 600 to 669). Conditional approval does not mean the applicant has been fully approved to move into the home.

• Conditional approval in all cases will require one or more of the following:

  • Additional security deposit beyond 1x rent

  • A co-signer with a credit score of 700 or higher

  • Additional lease addendums

  • A combination of any of the above or more

• Co-signer is required to submit an application and pass the same screening process with a credit score of 700 or higher.

• Rental History - You must be prepared to provide 3 years of residential history as well as contact information for your rental references. If a first time renter or no rental history can be obtained from prior landlord, then conditional approval requirements may be requested.

• History of accounts in collections or bankruptcies will be denied. In case of credit disqualifications, we do encourage applicants to add a co-signer to the application who does meet our credit requirements.

• Additional information may be requested. If the information requested is not received within 72 hours from request, the application may be denied.

• While we do our best to review and process applications the same day, please allow up to 24-72 hours for us to go through the proper steps.
