Detailed Information
-
Eden Housing does not rent from a central location. Each community has its own leasing office. Our properties have waiting lists which vary in length. In order to obtain an application for housing, we request that you call each property directly. The manager can answer questions regarding apartment availability, rent, income requirements or restrictions, and how to obtain an application for housing. The list of properties which are accepting applications is updated on a monthly basis on our website.
All applicants for housing will be screened according to the criteria set forth in this Resident Selection Policy. Management will hire a contractor to run a credit check and criminal background check and register sex offender report on all applicants and it will check court records for evictions or judgements against the applicant. The purpose of these checks is to obtain information on the applicant’s past history of meeting financial obligations and future ability to make timely rent payments and to determine if the applicant has a criminal history which makes him/her unacceptable to live at an Eden Housing Property. The Resident Selection Policy is established to comply with the Federal and State Laws and/or Eden Housing Management, Inc Policy.
The following information will render the application unacceptable:
- Household annual income must not exceed the program income limits of the property the household is applying for;
- In accordance with the following guideline, the household composition must be appropriate for the apartment size in which the household is applying:
BEDROOM SIZE MINIMUM PERSONS MAXIMUM PERSONS
Studio. 1 2
1 – Bedroom 1 3
2 – Bedroom 2 5
3 – Bedroom 3 7
4 – Bedroom 4 9
- Program eligibility determines whether applicants are eligible to reside in the specific property to which they have applied;
- Past performance in meeting financial obligations, especially rent paying: An applicant receives monthly income less than the amount equal to two and one-half times the rent of the apartment he/she is interested in renting. (While some exclusions apply, this does not apply to HUD/ or HA Vouchers Subsidized Properties);

- The Property Manager will double check the Credit History with the landlord references and application to ensure that the applicant reported all addresses where he/she has lived and any other information that should be the same. If the information is not the same, the Property Manager will ask the applicant about the discrepancies. If there is no acceptable explanation and it is clear that the applicant falsified information on the application, the applicant will be rejected/crossed out from the Waiting List and a denial letter will be sent to the applicant;
