The five steps

1. Find a home. Open the Marketplace, search, and select Apply on a unit you like. See Marketplace.
2. Pre-qualify. Answer the property's questionnaire. Your answers help the owner see if you are a good match. See The Questionnaire.
3. Apply. Complete and send your application. See Your Application.
4. Get screened. Pass a background check — credit, criminal, eviction, and identity. A fee applies. See Background Check.
5. Track and pay. Follow your progress on the Dashboard, pay any fees under Payments, and talk to the team in Messages.

Where to see your progress

• Your Dashboard shows every application and questionnaire.
• Documents keeps your files, grouped by property.
• Messages is where the LeaseOps team reaches you.

You can pause at most steps and pick up later. Unfinished items show a Resume button on your Dashboard.
