Applicants must first request an application and complete the Waiting List Elegibility Screening through ACRES. When a home becomes available, ACRES will review your submission and contact eligible applicants with instructions to begin the next steps in the leasing and screening process.

If ACRES determines your household may be eligible, you will be contacted to begin the screening process. At that time, you may be asked to provide current income documentation, such as recent pay stubs, benefit letters, gross income statements, liquid funds, or other proof of household income. All required documents must be authenticated.

During the full application review, applicants may be asked to provide additional records that support household eligibility, such as W-2 forms, federal tax returns with schedules and attachments, Rent Share Letters if applicable, or other documents requested by ACRES.

If requested during the screening process, applicants must provide documentation for applicable assets including checking, savings, trust accounts, Venmo/PayPal/Cash App statements, CDs, savings bonds, 401(k), IRA, mutual funds, stocks, and investment land.

Additional documentation, proof of income, credit screening, or criminal screening may be required based on your household’s specific situation during the full application review process.
