Application Steps
- Complete the following:
- Fill out the application form below
- Pay a non-refundable $20/person application fee
- Send pictures of the 3 IDs below to: 858-598-3830 or sdsurent@gmail.com
- your student ID (previous one if you graduated recently)
- your driver’s license (or passport if no driver’s license) — can be together with student ID
- guarantor’s driver’s license (unless you do step 5 below)
- Pay the initial security deposit to hold the house. This deposit will be credited towards the total security deposit which equals to 1-month of rent. (This step may be done in parallel as step 1.)
- You will receive an email containing the Background Check Authorization and Security Deposit Agreement. Open and follow the instruction to e-sign. (If not found, check the spam box first.)
- After (or while waiting for) positive background check feedback, you and your guarantors will receive the Lease (template) for e-sign.
- For page 6 of the lease, where guarantors are required to sign, each tenant and his/her guarantor will sign their own copy of that page — i.e. each guarantor only guarantees the rental payments of his/her own child/principal.
- Financial document required if a) you do NOT want any co-signer to sign the lease; or b) you are an international student. Please still fill the Parent/Guarantor info in the form below for emergency contact purpose.
- two most recent pay stubs + last year’s W-2
- two most recent months’ bank statements (full pdf) showing sufficient savings
- other relevant financial document: student loan, parents’ bank statements/letter-of-support
- Note:
- Rent for each person shall be decided by the group (based on room size, bathroom, etc)
- Security deposit shall be split evenly among the group
