What Are the Rental Criteria?

Age

Each person over the age of 18 who intends to reside in the home more than 50% of the time
MUST fill out a separate application.

Each applicant must have two years of clear rental/homeowner history.

Criminal Background

A criminal background check is also completed.
No felonies, violent crimes or drug convictions will be accepted.

Credit

  • No NSF – non-sufficient funds (bounced checks)
  • No late payments for two years after a bankruptcy or foreclosure
  • No past unpaid rents or evictions
  • No more than three collections; with the exception of medical

Employment / Income Verification
  • Each adult must individually qualify on his/her own. Each adult will be responsible for the lease should a roommate move out during the lease period.
  • To qualify your monthly income should be at least 3x the monthly rental rate.

Example: If the rent is $1000 per month your combined income should be no less than $3000 per month.

  • The combined income of the household will be considered for married couples, verifiable domestic partners, parent/non-adult child, guardian or ward.
  • Income Verification – One-month current pay stubs, direct deposit statement, child support,
    social security benefits or bank statements.
  • Current employment is verified and one year of stability is required. Exceptions being a job transfer, starting with a new career or retirement.


Identification

  • Please provide to your rental specialist or with your application a form of photo ID.

    Acceptable ID forms:

    Drivers License | Passport | Green Card | Military ID | State-issued ID


Application Fees

  • The application fee is $75 per person.

    When using the online application, you are NOT auto-charged. All payments are manually entered at our corporate office.

    If you would like to be “pre-approved”, just choose that option from the form of payment section on the application form.

    • An application is not considered complete and ready to process until ALL documentation
      and payment are provided. NOTE: If you do not supply all requested documentation,
      another applicant may jump ahead of you.
    • Be sure to fill the application out completely and as honestly as possible. It’s better to give
      us too much information, rather than have a surprise come up on your background check.
    • Unverifiable information will lead to your application not being approved
    • If your application should fall short of these standards, it may still be accepted with prepayment of rent,
      co-signing by another responsible adult (application required),
      or other methods that the property owner or manager agree upon.
    • Once your complete application is received by Rent Me Florida Customer Service, it will be
      processed. This usually takes between 24 – 48 hours. Your RMF Rental Specialist or a member
      of the Customer Service team will contact you with your approval and next steps.
