Guidelines:

Due to our management agreements JPM will follow these guidelines:

• A property needs to be viewed in person, or via a 3d Virtual Tour (if available) before submitting an application.
• Felonies, violent or sex crimes/charges are handled on a case by case basis, which may result in a denial.
• No applicant may have unpaid accounts to prior property management companies (in any condition: bankruptcy, etc).
• No applicant may have a prior eviction or unfulfilled terms on their record.
• No properties are taken off the market without receipt of an approved application and a money order deposit.
• We are unable to hold properties rent free. Rent starts within a few days after the receipt of the deposit.
• We cannot guarantee your place in line. We do multiple property showings daily and property owners sometimes do independent showings.
• Johnson Property Management must be made aware of any initial accommodation request at time of application submission. Proper documentation may also be required.

Requirements:

 JPM requires the following for an application to be approved:

• All applicants may require criminal background checks (see above) and credit history checks (see below).
• Employment may need to be verified and be established for more than three months.
• All parties on the rental agreement must have current employment resulting in a combined gross monthly income of three times the monthly rental payment for the property.
• The primary wage earner must have good established (six months of paid history) credit. Qualified credit will have 60% of listed accounts in current standing with a minimum of 4 current (non-deferred, non-delinquent, non-collection) open accounts. There cannot be unpaid liens or judgments on record.
• Debt to income ratio that is less than 40%.
• Johnson Property Management follows HUD guidelines. For more information please visit hud.gov.
• Published HUD guidelines are senior to all JPM procedures.
• Rental requirements are subject to change based on specific property owners requirements.

Co-signer:

If the above requirements are not met, JPM will require a qualified co-signer:

• The co-signer may not be a current Johnson Property Management tenant.
• The co-signers must be part of the agreement until the property is vacated in full.
• The co-signer must have a minimum of 6 current credit accounts with good payment history.
• If the co-signer has a felony on record, this will be handled on a case to case basis.
• The co-signers must have enough income to support the rent rate, along with their personal expenses.
• The co-signer must be a resident of the United States, but preferably living in Idaho.
• The co-signers will need to be able to complete a rental agreement signing via e-signing.
• The co-signer will maintain current auto-payment information on file with JPM, and authorize JPM to pay the account balance in full with that payment method on the 15th day of the month, if the rental account has a balance owing as of that date.

Procedures:

Each new agreement has a one time administrative Initial Leasing Service Charge of $100.00, which is non-refundable.

Regarding JPM application services:

• We do not currently charge for processing applications, however that does not mean we run all applications.
• Applications are processed first-come-first-serve.
• We will call you and will need to verify information before we will run the application.
• If you do not receive a prompt phone call after you submit an application, it may be because there are already pending applications on the property, or if the property has already rented, or if the application requirements/instructions were not followed.

Applications are processed “first come, first served”:

To be considered “in-line” an applicant must:

• See the property of interest, via a 3D tour or in person, before submitting an application.
• Submit a fully and properly completed application.
• Submit the deposit in full via money order or bank cashiers check.
• Be available and willing to start renting the property immediately upon the property being ready for occupancy.

Zero deposit program:

As an alternative to paying a traditional security deposit, we are pleased to offer this program allowing residents to lease properties with zero security deposit. Instead, residents will pay $45 monthly, in addition to rent and amenity services, to replace traditional security deposits. Tenants will still be responsible for returning properties in move-in condition, and a $100 initial leasing service applies to each rental. If the resident chooses to make a traditional security deposit, the deposit amount on apartments and all non-free standing properties is $1500. The deposit amount on all freestanding houses and townhomes is $2500.

If you have a pet or animal JPM requires the following:

Johnson Property Management LLC follows HUD guidelines regarding (assistance, companion, therapy, service, etc) animals. For more information please visit hud.gov

• We encourage applicants with a pet or animal to complete a profile with petscreening.com prior to submitting an application.
• There is a space for the petscreening profile link for the pet or animal on the rental application.
• If you have an animal be sure to select that option on the petscreening website. There is no charge for submitting a reasonable accommodation request for an animal.
• Additional pet rent may apply to pets.
• If you are unable to use petscreening please communicate to JPM an accommodation request and one of our managers will present you with an alternative.

• Not all property owners offer the option to change a rental agreement, therefore roommate add-ons are handled case by case.
• The additional tenant would need to fill out a new application with their information.
• A roommate service adjustment of $75 per account signer change needs to be paid before we process an application.
• No additional tenant applicant may be a registered sex offender.
• Felonies, violent or sex crimes/charges are handled on a case by case basis, which may result in a denial.
• No additional tenant applicant may have unpaid accounts to prior property management companies (in any condition: bankruptcy, etc).
• No additional tenant applicant may have a prior eviction on record.
• If approved we will need you and the additional tenant to sign a roommate addendum adding them onto your agreement.

Thank you for choosing us.
