What if I am asked for a cosigner?
This does not mean that your application is approved or denied. This only means that that there wasn't enough information in your application upon which we can make a decision. For example, your credit report may show that you are responsible, but if you are young enough, there might not be enough history there. Alternately, you may have never rented an apartment before. Cosigners are often parents, and cosigner applications are reviewed according to the same standards as resident applications. If you need a cosigner, they must fill out and an application along with copy of a photo ID. Keep in mind that a co-signer must have good credit history (no past dues or collections), employed or retried, owns a home or has good rental history. If a co-signer is denied, applicant must pay additional $25 fee for another co-signer. Fee must be paid before processing cosigner’s application.
