Sandpoint Rentals - R&L Property Management

Tenant Application Procedure

The first step in applying for a rental is completing a rental application. An application must be turned in prior to an appointment to view rentals. Applications can be dowloaded and printed here, picked up at our office, faxed or mailed to you. Each adult who will be occupying the rental property will need to be included on an application. Spouses can fill out one application, with one spouse listed under first applicant and the other listed under second applicant. Roommates will need to fill out separate applications.

We have a $10.00 application fee.

Please take the time to fill out the application completely and sign and date on the second page. The application process includes a credit check, rental reference check and verification of employment and usually takes 1-2 business days.

Upon approval of your application, a rental agreement must be signed and a security deposit paid to hold the rental property to the agreed upon move-in date. All remaining deposits and rent must be paid in full prior to move-in. Payment can be made with cash, check, money order or cashiers check. Pet policy is dependent upon each homeowner’s preference. If allowed, the individual homeowner determines the number and types of pets allowed. If the rental property you are applying for accepts pets, you must provide a reference that can verify the condition of your previous home where the pet lived. An additional pet deposit may be required.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions about our application process or any other rental needs.

Tenant Maintenance Request Procedure

Maintenance and repair requests can be made by phone, e-mail, or at our office. We will need your name, address and telephone number and a description of what needs to be repaired. A maintenance man from our office, or from an appropriate company that we subcontract work to, will contact you regarding maintenance or repair.

Tenant Move Out Procedure

When you are ready to move out of your rental property, a minimum 30-day written notice must be given. During the 30 days prior to your move out, we will advertise the property for rent and schedule appointments to show the property.

Please be sure to provide our office with current home, work and/or cell telephone numbers so that we can contact you in advance for appointments.

All keys and garage door openers must be returned to our office before final inspection for the return of your security deposit.

City utilities must be paid in full before we process your deposit refund. Be sure to contact utility companies for final bills. Transfer utilities to R&L Property Management. Please do not have utilities disconnected.

Security deposits will be returned within 30 days of your move out. Be sure to provide our office with your forwarding address and telephone number.

For your convenience, a cleaning checklist can be downloaded and printed here or picked up at our office. It is a basic guideline of the things we will be checking for during final inspection. Please keep in mind, some things on the list may not apply to the home you are renting and there may be other things that need to be addressed that are not on the list.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions regarding your move out or other rental needs.
