Qualification Criteria

Know where you stand
before you apply.

01 — Income

2.5× the monthly rent

Combined gross household income of at least 2.5× the rent, from lawful, verifiable sources. Housing-voucher holders: the 2.5× applies to your portion of the rent only.

02 — Credit

FICO 650 or above

650+ qualifies. 600–649 may qualify with a co-signer. Medical and student-loan debt are not counted against you. Voucher holders may provide alternative evidence of ability to pay.

03 — Rental History

Two verifiable years

Two years of verifiable rental history, no eviction judgment in the last seven years, and no unpaid balance owed to a prior landlord. First-time renters are welcome with a qualified co-signer.

04 — Employment

Six months on the job

Six months in your current position, or a verified offer letter for a new one. Self-employed applicants: your last two years of tax returns.

05 — Identification

No SSN required

Any government-issued photo ID works — including a passport or foreign ID. An ITIN is fine, a Social Security number is not required, and we never ask about immigration status.

06 — Background

Reviewed individually

Criminal history is reviewed case-by-case through an individualized assessment — never a blanket ban. Arrests without a conviction are not considered.

07 — Occupancy

Two per bedroom, plus one

Maximum occupancy is two occupants per bedroom, plus one additional occupant per home.

08 — Pets

Considered case-by-case

Pets are considered per property, with pet rent of $50/month per pet. Service and assistance animals are always welcome — no pet rent, ever.

09 — Co-signers

4× income, FICO 700+

Where a co-signer is used: income of at least 4× the rent, FICO 700+, and they sign the lease as a guarantor.

10 — Move-in Terms

One month's deposit

Security deposit is capped at one month's rent. renter’s insurance with $300k liability is required, and all homes are non-smoking.

These criteria are applied uniformly to every applicant. Complete applications are screened one at a time, in the order received, as required by California law. Housing vouchers and all lawful sources of income are welcome. Avenor Property Management complies with all federal, state, and local fair-housing laws. Equal Housing Opportunity.
