Lange Property Management is an Equal Housing Opportunity provider. We will process all applications on a first-come, first-serve basis. Our decisions are based on standard criteria including; rental and credit history, ability to pay rent, and background check results. Reasons for declining an application will be communicated to all applicants.
Criteria for Approval
- Rental History – Proof that rent has been paid on time for the previous 3 months immediately prior to application.
- Income – Proof that applicant(s) gross monthly combined verifiable income is 2 times the monthly rent. For example, monthly rent is equal to or less than 33% of the gross monthly combined verifiable income of applicant(s).
