Long Term Rental - Applicant FAQ

  • You have a property I want to rent. How do I apply?

    Find the property you're interested in on our 'Find a Home' page under 'Long Term Rentals' and simply click the 'Apply Now' button.

  • Can you hold a place before I apply?

    Unfortunately, we're unable to reserve the property until the application process is completed, qualifications are met, and approval is obtained. Once approved, the applicant(s) must sign the lease within 24 hours upon receiving it. The property will be temporarily reserved until that period. However, until the lease is signed and executed, the property will continue to be available on the market.

  • What funds are due prior to moving in?

    If approved for the property, the applicant(s) are to pay the security deposit within 48 hours of receiving access to the tenant portal. Additionally, a non-refundable administrative fee of $250 is required on the lease commencement date, along with any relevant charges for pets as specified in the lease agreement.

  • What is the minimum age requirement for applying?

    Fox Property Management requires every occupant, age 18+, to complete an individual application.

  • How are applications processed?

    Multiple applicant groups may apply for the same property. We will process all applications and approve the most qualified applicant. Applications are assessed on the following criteria: rental history, income, credit score, eviction history, and criminal record.

  • I’ve applied for a property. How long until I know if I’ve been approved?

    The application screening process takes approximately 3 business days, primarily contingent upon the completeness of applications, the duration for rental history retrieval, and pet screening (if relevant). Obtaining rental history usually consumes the most time.

  • Another applicant was chosen for the property I applied for? Can I transfer my application?

    If you qualify, but another applicant is approved over you, we can move your application over to another one of our available properties within 60 days at no additional cost. Your application can only be used for one home at a time.

  • Are pets permitted?

    Every property has its own pet policy dependent on the criteria set by the owner of the property, governing HOA and/or City and county ordinances. Please verify the pet policy for the specific property prior to applying. You can do so by reviewing the marketing ad.


    If a property accepts pets, the following conditions may apply:


    • Pet deposit -$300 per pet max
    • Pet rent - $35 or 1.5% is standard
    • Non-refundable pet fees might also be applicable.
    • Properties usually have limits on the number of pets allowed.
    • Some properties may only allow cats, while others may only allow dogs.
  • How do I pay rent?

    Rent payments are made via your Resident Portal. Once you have a signed lease you will be given a Resident Portal login. The Resident Portal allows you to pay rent online, submit work order requests and send messages online.

  • I am self-employed, so I don’t get a pay stub. What should I do?

    You can provide your most recent tax returns or bank statements showing the recurring income.

  • Can I get a refund if I don’t get the house?

    Application fees are non-refundable, even if your application is not approved.
