or by phone at (239) 963-8450.
Application Processing and Time Frame:
Processing an application normally takes between 2-3 days. In some cases
approval of homeowner associations, condo associations, homeowners, or
unforeseen circumstances may require some applications to take longer.
You will be contacted immediately upon determination of approval or
denial. All adult applicants over the age of 18 must submit a fully
completed, dated and signed rental application and application fee.
No
rental property will be held vacant for more than two (2) weeks, unless
approved by Naples Property Manager.
Cost:
If you
decide to apply to rent one of our properties, there is a $40.00 per
single adult application fee and $60.00 joint application fee that is
“non-refundable”. This must accompany the completed application form
provided to you by our company. Incomplete applications or applications
submitted without the proper application fees will not be considered and
application fees will not be refunded for incomplete applications.
Some
Homeowner and Condominium Associations may require a separate
application and fees and if such is the case, you must also apply
separately to such homeowners or condominium association and remit
whatever other application fee may be required.
The Application:
Upon
receipt of your rental application and application fee, you can expect
and hereby authorize that we will: (1) check your credit report; (2)
check the public records for any past evictions, (3) verify your
employment; (4) verify your previous landlord references; and (5) do a
criminal background check. We would encourage you not to apply if you
have bad credit, bad references, have ever been evicted in the past or
have a criminal record. Cosigners or Co-Guarantors may be considered on
an individual basis.
Once
you have been notified of your approval, you must place (at a minimum) a
holding deposit (by cashier’s check or money order), equal to at least
one month’s rent within 48 hours of your approval notification. Once
approved and payment of the holding deposit is paid your holding deposit
is nonrefundable.
In the
event that you fail to enter into the lease agreement or refuse to take
possession of the property on or before the beginning rental date you
applied for, you shall forfeit these funds as liquidated damages. Due to
the high demand for rental homes, we will not hold the property you
applied for off the rental market for more than 48 hours unless you
provide the required holding deposit. If you do not comply with this
requirement, we may rent the home you applied for to someone else, and
your application fee is non-refundable.
All
applicants must see the interior of the property before an application
can be submitted. The property must be accepted in “AS IS” condition
before an application can be accepted, except where there is written
agreement for maintenance or repair items. Any such maintenance or
repair request (if any) must be written and included with your
application under “Other Items Requested”, in the contract to lease
portion of your application. If your maintenance and repair request are
acceptable to Naples Property Manager Co., then that agreement will be
written in the lease or lease addendum. Verbal representations are
non-binding. In the event that the manager receives two or more
unrelated applications for the same property, the applicant understands
the manager may select the applicant desiring the property in “AS IS”
condition, over another applicant requesting maintenance or repairs. In
all cases, the application fee is non-refundable.
All
initial funds, the holding deposit ― first month’s rent and security
deposit ― must be paid by cashiers check or money order payable to
“Amerivest Realty”. Subsequent months thereafter may be paid by check.
Resident Selection Criteria:
Applicants must have a combined gross income of at least three (3) times
the monthly rent. Incomes must be verified in writing, applicant may
provide recent pay stubs. A minimum of two years residential history is
required. Rental history must be rated satisfactory or better, with no
record of evictions. We reserve the right to require a cosigner and/or a
higher security deposit. Cosigners are accepted at the managers
discretion only, must meet all requirements, and must reside in the
State of Florida.
Self
employed applicants may be required to produce upon request two (2)
years of signed tax returns or IRS 1099 forms. Non-employed applicants
must provide proof of income.
Credit
history and/or Civil Court Records must not contain slow pays,
judgments, eviction filings, collections, liens or bankruptcy within the
past three (3) years. We will not provide you with the credit report or
tell you of its contents; however, we will provide you with the name of
the credit reporting agency so you may receive a copy from the credit
bureau. All information collected for the approval or denial of this
application is considered confidential in nature and for company use
only.
If you
have been convicted of a felony within the past seven (7) years, this is
cause for rejection. Applicant must not have a felony record that was
adjudicated guilty or had adjudication withheld for the past seven (7)
years, or any conviction of any length of time for any drug related,
sexual related, murder related or arson related crime.
Previous rental history reports from previous landlords must reflect
timely payment, sufficient notice of intent to vacate, no complaints
regarding noise, disturbances or illegal activities, no NSF checks, and
no damage to rental property or failure to leave the property clean and
without damage when you left the property.
Current
occupancy standards are a maximum of 2 persons per bedroom, except for
infants under 4 years of age. However, some city and county
municipalities and/or homeowners associations prohibit more than two (2)
unrelated adults to reside in a single family dwelling unit.
Consequently, Naples Property Manager also prohibits the rental of a
single family dwelling to more than two (2) unrelated adults.
No pets
(with the exception of medically necessary pets) of any kind are
permitted without the specific written permission of Naples Property
Manager in the lease document (a pet addendum to lease), and an
additional non-refundable pet application fee of $250.00 per pet. Some
properties may require higher pet fees or higher rent amounts. If a
higher pet fee or rent amount is required, you will be notified at the
time of the application.
The
following pets will not be accepted under any circumstances: GERMAN
SHEPHERDS, DOBERMANS, PIT BULLS, CHOWS, OR ROTTWEILERS.
Some
Homeowner and Condominium Associations may require a separate
application. If so, you must also apply separately to such association
and approval by the homeowners or condo association is a necessary
prerequisite to our approval of your application.
Security deposits are security for faithful performance by tenants of
all terms, covenants, and conditions of the lease agreement and tenants
may not dictate that the security deposit be used for any rent due.
Unless claimed due to a breach of lease or damages, the security deposit
is refundable when the tenants move out of the property at the
expiration of the lease term.
Any
exceptions to these criteria will need to be submitted in writing to
Naples Property Manager for consideration. If approval is then given for
such exceptions, an additional security deposit, cosigners and/or
additional “higher” rent may be required.
Other Issues:
Rents
quoted are the rental amounts due if paid on time (on or before the 1st
of each month by 5:00 PM) otherwise, the rent is at least $50.00more
that month and possibly higher if rents are severely delinquent.
Keys
will be released on the first (1st) day of occupancy as stated in the
lease agreement. Request for keys earlier must be accompanied with
additional pro-rated rent and must have Naples Property Manager’s prior
approval.
Maintenance and Repair ― When you rent a home from our company, we
strive to ensure that all items are in good working order. Please report
any maintenance or repair request during your first 5 days of
possession.
Multiple Applications ― It is entirely possible that Naples Property
Manager may receive multiple applications from unrelated individual
applicants on the same property at approximately the same time. If such
is the case, we will process all applications for consideration as to
what we (in our sole discretion) deem the best applicant, which may not
necessarily be the first application received. In such cases, more than
one applicant may be approvable, however only one will eventually be
approved. Because we represent the best interest of the rental property,
we will accept the best application, which may not necessarily the first
application received. In order to evaluate the various applications it
is necessary for Naples Property Manager to expend time and cost in
credit reports, criminal reports, and other administrative costs. Hence,
it is our policy that the application fee is nonrefundable.
If your
application is approvable, but 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.
Leasing
Consultants ― Naples Property Manager provides leasing consultants to
grant you access to preview our properties, to distribute rental
information, applications, rental process and application disclosures
and contracts to lease our properties. The leasing consultant will also
submit your application to Naples Property Manager for processing.
Verbal representations are non-binding.
Once
your application is submitted to Naples Property Manager, the
approval/denial and negotiation process (if any) will be handled by the
property manager in charge of the property for which you are applying.
This
“Rental Process and Application Disclosure” is hereby made an integral
part of my/our rental application. I/we do hereby acknowledge that I/we
understand and agree to the terms of application and rental process as
described herein. I/we further acknowledge that I/we have seen and
previewed the rental property (both inside and outside) for which we are
applying.
