- Applications are reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis.

HB 19-1106 Compliance: For our company, the hard costs associated with running an application include but are not limited to: paying our third-party software provider for credit/eviction/criminal background records, paying our staff member(s) hourly to process the application, and paying to provide our application processor with a physical desk space along with software to effectively perform all associated job duties. The labor/time associated with running an application typically includes working with the applicant to ensure the application is completed, communicating with the prospective tenant throughout the application processes, and working to obtain past rental housing references, proof of income, picture identification, photos of pets, etcetera. Upon quantifying all costs and calculating the out-of-pocket expenses for running applications, we have determined that it costs us around $200 per application for processing. However, for the sake of “fairness” and market competition, we have lowered the rate charged to a flat $70 per adult applying for residence.
