How can I submit an application to rent one of your properties?
You must be at least 18 years old to submit an application. A fee of sixty-one dollars is also necessary to submit your application as well. A packet will be given to you that goes over the rental criteria, the cost of rent, and what is needed from you once you become a tenant.
Is it possible to apply for a property that I haven't viewed?
No, you need to send an application for a viewed property. Otherwise, we will deny your application while retaining the application fee. We understand that you may not have time to view the property. In this case, you could arrange for a friend or family member to view the property on your behalf.
It's important to see the property instead of only looking at the photos. The photos serve as an approximate representation. Applicants should check whether the property matches their expectations and needs.
How can I visit a property?
Call the number 360-898-7368 or send an email to elitepmsllc@gmail.com to schedule a viewing. After receiving a request, we'll quickly organize a property viewing. Our goal is to make sure you'll find your dream home.
