  • How long does it take for my application to be processed?

    Maximum of 5-7 business days.

  • I haven't physically seen the property, but I want to apply anyway. Should I?

    If you're familiar with the area, love the pictures, and the price is right, we encourage you to apply. The rental market is competitive and by getting your application in as soon as possible, you might get ahead of competing renters who are waiting to apply after they have seen the unit. However, we never sign a lease without the future tenant seeing the unit first, so be sure to schedule a showing online in addition to filling out an application. 

  • I filled out an application a few days ago and haven't heard anything. What should I do?

    If you have been in contact with an agent, send them a text or an email asking about the status of your application or if you need to provide anything that might help speed things along (additional information regarding employment, previous living arrangements, proof of payments, etc.). If you applied without seeing the property or have not been in contact with an agent, send an email to leasing@jaquarealtors.com inquiring about the status of your application. Keep in mind that applications typically take about a week to process.

  • What are the move in costs?

    Application fee(s), security deposit, cleaning fee and first month's rent. 

  • What are the move in costs if I have a pet?

    Application fee(s), security deposit, first month's rent, cleaning fee, one-time non-refundable pet fee, and first month's pet rent. See our pet policy for more details.

  • How much is security deposit?
