New Generation Homes will assist all applicants without regard to race, color, creed, sex, religion, national origin, familial status, marital status, handicap, or ancestry.
A separate application is required for each applicant over the age of eighteen (excluding dependent children) Who intends to reside in the property. This guarantees our compliance with Federal, state, and local Fair Housing laws.
The information requested on our application provides the basis for the selection of the best neighbors for all of our residents. Please fill in all spaces and answer all questions as fully as possible (more information is better than less). Incomplete applications will not be processed.
Applicants MUST view the inside of the property (either in person or by a video walk-thru) before the application will be processed. We are not responsible for making sure you get a video walk-through. IF the house is vacant, you must have someone you know walk you through it. We are not trying to be difficult. We need to make sure you like the property and it's location.
Every application must be accompanied by a $35.00 non-refundable processing fee, a signed Rental Transaction Disclosure, and Applicant’s Acknowledgement & Hold Harmless Agreement form, and the Lead Paint Disclosure (if applicable). You will receive an email that you need to take action on for a credit pull within 24 hours of submitting your application. We cannot move forward until you have gone through that email.
A lead-based paint disclosure is included with this packet if the housing was built prior to 1978. This disclosure must be signed by all applicants and returned with your rental applications. The EPA also requires that the pamphlet “Protect Your Family From Lead in Your Home” be made available when renting or selling houses constructed before 1978. This pamphlet is either included or may be read or downloaded on-line at:http://www2.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2014-02/documents/lead_in_your_home_brochure_land_b_w_508_easy_print_0.pdf

c. Applicants requesting a special accommodation for an assistance animal will be asked to substantiate their need for the animal. We do not accept documentation from online companies that simply charge a fee to issue paperwork, but do not actually evaluate the need for an emotional support animal.

New Generation Homes believes that our tenants are our greatest assets. We have rented to many tenants since 2004. We offer well-maintained houses for long-term occupancy to people who wish to take our houses and make them their homes. Our typical tenants rent for multiple years (our longest tenancy is 12 years and going) and we have never had a tenant forced to move because of a foreclosure. We offer discounted rent to tenants who are willing to take on the responsibility for the minor maintenance that comes from living in a home. If what we offer appeals to you and you meet our qualifying criteria (listed below) we invite you to apply to rent this property.
