Mistakes agents make here

  • Send the published screening criteria, do not summarize or guess them.
  • Ask only what the card asks for. Questions about who the household is are not yours to ask.

Businesses publish

Services and prices, service area, hours, policies, and application fee, screening criteria link, pet policy, security deposit.
