What is the Tenant Application Process?

Prospective tenants who have viewed a property and wish to rent it can apply online through our website. When you visit the Platinum Property Management Services, Inc. website, click on the ad or listing of the desired home. You’ll find a button that invites you to ‘Apply Online.’ Click on it, and you’ll be taken to the application form, which can be completed digitally. Your application will be received in the leasing office, and our goal is to approve it as quickly as possible. You can expect to hear from us within two to four business days.

Online Rental Applications

Through our website, prospective tenants who have seen a property and know they want to rent it can apply online. On the Platinum Property Management Services, Inc. website, click on the ad or listing for the home you’re interested in. You will see a button that invites you to ‘Apply Online.’ Click on it, and you’ll be directed to the application form, which you can fill out and submit digitally.

Your application will arrive in the leasing office, and it’s always our goal to have you approved as quickly as possible. You should expect to hear from us in between two to four business days. There are a few things you can do to help us screen your application quickly and then call you with the good news that you are approved to rent a home.

Prepare Your Income Verification Documentation

When applying for a rental property, it’s essential to have the proper income documentation. These documents should be uploaded or emailed to our team. By providing this information upfront, we can verify your earnings and ensure that you meet the income requirements to afford the monthly rent for the home you’re interested in. Avoid delays by submitting the necessary income details promptly. Waiting or multiple requests may slow down the process, and another applicant could be approved for the property you’ve chosen.

Provide Accurate Landlord Contact Information

When it comes to providing accurate landlord contact information, there are some important considerations. Let’s break it down: 

Notify Landlords: Inform your landlords that you’ll be contacting them as part of the application process. 

Reference Checks: Mention that reference checks with current and former landlords are standard procedure.

Accurate Information: Ensure you provide accurate contact details for your landlords.

Expectation Setting: Let your landlords know that they should expect to hear from the application team.

Preparation: Advise landlords to be prepared when contacted. Remember to communicate clearly and professionally with your landlords to facilitate a smooth process!  

Additional Rental Application Considerations

Please be aware of the competitive nature of the Atlanta rental market. When applying for a rental home, keep in mind that multiple applications may be submitted for the same property. To get ahead of the game, ensure that your documentation is submitted and make sure your landlords are expecting our call.

When there are two or more adults living in the home, each adult needs to submit a separate application. Each individual can submit an application online, and we’ll cross-reference them to make a decision on everyone who is moving in together.

Our application packet is comprehensive. We recommend reviewing it before applying to familiarize yourself with our tenant screening process.
