State and local housing laws are strictly followed by our brokerage. We do not refund application fees after it is run through our website. If your application is approved, you will have 24 hours to pay your Earnest Money Deposit: Earnest Money Deposit equals to one month's rent plus $195 lease administration fee. Upon approval and receipt of your Earnest Money Deposit, we will prepare your lease which you will be required to sign within 3 business days from receipt. Once your application is approved and the Earnest Money Deposit is paid, your Earnest Money Deposit becomes non-refundable.

The Earnest Money Deposit will not be refunded to applicant and will be forfeited if Applicant:

  • Fails to provide additional funds required;

3. RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA

  • To qualify for the advertised security deposit amount you must meet the following criteria. If your credit, work history, or income does not qualify, you may still be approved but at a higher security deposit amount plus increased Risk Mitigation Admin charge:

4. CONTINGENT APPROVAL CHARGES-CREDIT SCORE BASED

  • All lease transactions involve risk. To mitigate this risk for both landlord and tenant, PROEX REALTY MANAGEMENT routinely video tapes the condition of properties before and after each tenancy, ending most security deposit claim disputes before they begin. 

  • Credit history should show that the applicant has paid bills on time and does not have a history of write-offs or collections. 

  • Offering an approval to a prospective tenant based upon total credit score below a 600 involves a higher inherent risk to the landlord and to the property manager. PROEX REALTY MANAGEMENT can offer applicants with lower that 600 credit score an opportunity to rent from us by offsetting the monetary risk for owner and management company. As long as applicant can and does pay the additional fee associated with their credit scores a lease can be offered.

5. Risk Mitigation Admin charge for Applicants

  • Credit score: 600-850 - Risk Mitigation Fee: None - Refundable security deposit: 1x monthly rent

  • Credit score: 550-599 - Risk Mitigation Fee: 10% (not to exceed $150) - Refundable security deposit: 1.25x monthly rent

  • Credit score: 500-549 - Risk Mitigation Fee: 20% (not to exceed $300) - Refundable security deposit: 1.5x monthly rent

  • Credit score: 300-499 - Denied. Any applicant with a credit score under 499 must be declined due to an unacceptably high credit risk. Ask to see if you can qualify with a cosigner. Co-signers are accepted at the manager's discretion only. They must complete an application, provide all documentation required of applicants, must meet all requirements and must sign the lease agreement.

  • Dealing with Multiple Applicants: A risk mitigation charge will be assessed based on the AVERAGE FICO score of all adults. No FICO Score: Applicants who do not have a FICO score may be assigned a score of 500 for the purpose of determining their risk mitigation fee and refundable security deposit.

  • Because PROEX REALTY MANAGEMENT represents the best interest of the rental property, applicant accepts and understands the necessity for PROEX REALTY MANAGEMENT to expend time and cost in obtaining credit reports, criminal reports, and other administrative costs. Hence, our policy that the application fee is non-refundable.

  • If your application met our criteria but was 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.
