Apartment Locating FAQs
Our focus is on saving you time and money while finding you the best apartment in town. We don't just "send a list" - you can find that online on your own! Our team connects with you to learn what you're looking for, and does the heavy lifting to save you a ton of time calling properties to confirm availability, pricing, and scheduling your tours.
Apartment communities utilize their marketing budget to reward your locator for bringing them a new resident once you move in - similar to a referral fee. You get a great apartment, they get a great new resident, and your locator gets rewarded for supporting your search. Everybody wins!
We find and review the best properties within your criteria, and confirm immediate availability and pricing. Then, we look over the best options together to make sure you know the ins-and-outs of each property - adjusting along the way, if needed! Availability and pricing can all change daily, so it's important that we review your top options, and help you schedule tours so you don't miss out! This helps you avoid driving all over town to learn more about each property on your own - we're the apartment experts...we're here to save you time!
You can reach out at any point to connect with a locator from our team! 30 to 60 days before your "Move-in Date" is ideal, though, since this is when most properties will have their best availability.
Typically no sooner than 60 days before your "Move-in Date", but more specifically, once you're ready to apply. Pricing and Move-in Specials can change daily, and Availability can change by the hour. It's best to tour when you're ready to make a decision to apply!
We work specifically with properties run by property management companies, which includes Apartments, Townhomes, Duplexes, and even Homes! We do not work with privately owned rentals.
Most properties require proof of gross income that is 3 times the monthly rent (the total before taxes are taken out). For instance, if the rent is $1,200 per month, you'll need to provide proof of income of at least $3,600 per month before taxes. This can include any and all provable income combined by all tenants 18+, and from Wages, Government Assistance, Child Support/Alimony, Retirement Income, etc...
You'll need to communicate the extent of your circumstances with your locator. Our team is well versed in helping customers overcome credit and rental history challenges, but only if they are aware of the details!
Unfortunately, most properties that work with us do not accept applicants with a misdemeanor or felony on their record.
