Applying for our properties

We require that prospective tenants see the available property before they may apply for it. If you are out of town you may have a trusted friend/relative/real estate agent view the property for you. We also offer video tours.  After you have seen the property you may submit your applications, app fees & deposit. Please call 970-528-5132 with the address of the property you wish to see & schedule a showing.

Showings are offered from 10am-6:45pm Monday – Saturday (March through mid-October). 10am-5:30pm (mid-October through March).

While we would love to be able to do that, keeping track of everyone’s number, housing requirements, and who found a place already would be a full-time job & would be difficult to be fair about. It’s much more beneficial for everyone if you check the website frequently. Often prospective tenants will know of new listings simultaneously as our showing staff as we update the website as soon as we know when someone is going to vacate. You can also view our newly listed properties.

$50 non-refundable. Fees are comprised of: $18 Credit/Background Report, $32 for Rental Reference Verification, Income Verification and processing. 

Properties are first come first serve, we must have the application, app fees, and the security deposit completed for all applicants, in the office, for us to take it off the market. First one to fulfill this criteria gets first consideration for property. 

We only accept certified funds (cashier's check or money order) for security deposits. No credit cards or cash. Please write the property address in the memo and make sure you mail your payments from a secure mailbox. Tenants can pay via the online portal once they are approved tenants.

We verify:

  • Employment & income. Household income must meet or exceed 2x the rent
  • Credit and Background History
  • Previous rental history

It depends on a lot of different factors. We review it on a case by case basis.

  • It depends on the time of year & how much of the application is completed.
  • Provide a copy of your driver’s license
  • If you are moving here for a job, provide a letter from your employer w/ job offer/salary info, etc
  • Contact your previous landlord & let them know All Property Services, Inc. will contact them
  • Make sure we can contact you. Provide accurate phone numbers, activate voicemail & empty voice mailbox & provide accurate email address.
  • Provide most recent pay stub, W-2, etc
  • Be available to take calls or return calls/emails promptly. Refrain from calling to check your applications status as it interrupts the actual work being done on it.

No. Because our properties are owned by individuals we can’t hold a property without a lease/rent.

Fill in your ideal move in date. While it is not guaranteed it will help our Property Managers schedule maintenance and cleaning and they will try to work with that date.

Our property info pages show what is included and excluded in the rent. Often tenants pay gas, electricity, cable, internet, etc. Typically water/sewer/trash is included for townhomes, condo’s & apartments as well as snow removal. In single family homes all utilities, lawn care & snow removal is almost always the tenant responsibility.

Because tenants pay their own utilities, we do not have record of what the utility costs are for individual properties. It also varies widely based on behavior i.e. do you turn the furnace on when the temperature drops below 65 degrees? Or run the a/c non-stop?

As soon as the current tenant moves out there is a transition period where All Property Services, Inc. performs a final walk-through to ensure the carpets have been cleaned, the property is clean and creates a list of maintenance repairs if needed. The property manager can be more specific about move in dates.

Often it’s tempting to save a few dollars by turning your heat off when you will be leaving town for holidays or vacations. While we encourage energy savings we ask that you don’t turn the heat below 60 degrees and leave your sink cabinet doors open to prevent frozen pipes during the cold months.

Per the 2006 International Fire Code, charcoal and propane grills with a capacity larger than 2.5 gallons cannot be located within 10’ of a building. Electric grills & camping grills with bottles smaller than 2.5 gallons are acceptable.

Depends on the circumstances. Call your property manager to discuss details. If they agree to a sublease there are additional costs associated with moving out early.

Because anyone over the age of 18 yrs old must be on the lease, if you add/change roommates you must submit a Roommate Change Request. The new roommate must sign an application. The new roommate assumes all of the responsibilities listed on the lease.
