It is Asset Plus Companies’ Policy to actively pursue and offer equal housing for all persons regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, handicap, or familial status.

 

Policies:

  1.       Identification: All applicants must have a Government Issued photo ID.

 

  1.       Non-citizens: Applicants who are citizens of another country must provide (1)a passport.

(2) the INS document that entitles the applicant to be in the United States; and (3) proof of employment in this country. This community may ask to make a photocopy of any of the applicant’s INS documents, passport, and Visa. In addition, for applicants who do not have credit history in this country and/or guarantor, this community will accept in lieu of the credit/guarantor requirements an additional deposit equal one month’s market rent, unless otherwise expressed in writing by management.

 

  1.       Legal Age: All applicants leasing an apartment must be of legal age to sign a contract. Applicants must be 18 years or older or an emancipated minor. An emancipated minor is a person less than 18 years of age who is or has been married, or on active military duty, or has an emancipation order.

 

  1.       Criminal History: It is the policy of Asset Plus Companies to review an applicant’s past criminal history as there is a legitimate concern about the health, safety, and/or comfort of other residents and employees, as well as a legitimate concern regarding the potential risk for property damage. Criminal history only refers to criminal convictions, which includes deferred adjudication and/or pretrial diversion. Generally, factors including, but not limited to the following, will be considered when reviewing the applicant’s criminal conviction(s): nature and severity of crime; when the crime was committed; and whether the type of criminal conduct is a concern to the legitimate interests of the property or owner of the property undermanagement.

 

Generally, applicants with the following criminal convictions will be excluded from residency at this apartment community: (1) murder; (2) arson; (3) any felony relating to the manufacture or sale of illegal drugs, including controlled substances; and (4) any sex-related crime requiring applicant’s present registry as a sex offender under the State’s Sex Offender programs. Notwithstanding the above, it is the policy of Asset Plus Companies to review the foregoing factors regarding Applicant’s criminal conviction(s), as well as consider any evidence of mitigation provided by Applicant.

 

Applicant shall not be rejected solely based upon an arrest or charge that is not, yet a criminal conviction as defined above. Applicants with pending criminal litigation who are subsequently convicted, given deferred adjudication, or given pretrial diversion, for any of the crimes including,

but not limited to, those provided above, during the term of any prospective lease, may be in default of their rental agreement and may be required to vacate the premises.

 

When applicants have not lived in this state for at least 12 months prior to application date, we will endeavor to check criminal history for the previous states of residence over the past 7 years. Please note that this requirement does not constitute a guarantee that residents or occupants currently residing in our community have not been charged with or convicted of a felony or deferred adjudication for a felony or misdemeanor crime against a person or property. There may be residents or occupants that have resided in our community prior to this requirement going into effect. Additionally, our ability to verify this information is limited to the information made available to us by the resident credit reporting services and other third-party resources.
