Renters Frequently Asked Questions

21 united realty renters 2 How much do I need in order to lease a property? 

We require the first month’s rent plus a month and a half security deposit. If applicable, we do require a pet deposit, which is usually $200 per cat and $500 per dog.

Can I hold a property? 
Yes, if requesting a property be put on hold, you must pay a holding deposit equal to the first month’s rent. Property will be held for a maximum of 30 calendar days from date of non-refundable holding deposit. You must pay the remaining balance of the total move in costs prior to moving into the rental property.

Do we check credit?
