Screening Criteria and Disclosure

Real Property Management Qualified is committed to supporting the principles of Equal Housing Opportunity. We follow all federal, state, and local fair housing laws and provide housing without discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex (including gender identity and sexual orientation), familial status, disability, or any other protected class. We strive to ensure every applicant and resident is treated fairly and respectfully throughout the rental process.

All individuals age 18 and older who will be living in the home must complete and sign an application and pay the required application fee before processing can begin.

Most applications are processed within 2–3 business days after all required information is received. In some cases, approvals may take longer due to HOA or association requirements or other factors. We’ll keep you informed throughout the process.

Once your application is complete, you can expect to hear from us within 3 business days via email, text, or phone. If your application is denied, you will receive a written notification.

For homes that allow pets, we use this third-party screening service to:

• Clearly communicate our pet and animal-related policies.
• Ensure proper documentation for all animals.
• Maintain accurate records and policy acknowledgments.

Promote accountability and fairness across all households.

We review credit history for the past 7 years including payment history, collections, charge-offs, judgments, and prior landlord debt. Evictions within 7 years may result in denial.

Applicants must provide two most recent consecutive pay stubs (covering at least 30 days of income). Weekly pay may require four pay stubs. Self-employed applicants must provide two recent bank statements and the most recent tax return.

If you are self-employed, retired, or not employed, we can accept documents such as signed tax returns from the previous two (2) years, bank statements, etc., that prove the applicant’s ability to pay the rent.

If military, we need a current copy of your leave and earnings statement. If you are active-duty military, you must be on an assignment that, to the best of your knowledge, will allow you to complete an initial twelve (12) month lease.

We review rental history for the past 5–7 years. Prior evictions, outstanding landlord balances, or repeated lease violations may result in denial.

Criminal background screening is conducted in compliance with Florida law. Violent felonies, drug manufacturing, arson, burglary, or registered sex offender status within the past 7 years may result in denial.
