Application Process

Application Process

Wyman Property Management is an equal opportunity housing provider. We fully comply with the Federal Fair Housing Act. We do not discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. We also comply with all state and local fair housing laws.

What You Need to Know

Applicant(s) must be a minimum of 18 years of age. A complete and accurate application listing a current and at least one previous rental reference with phone numbers will be required. Each applicant 18 years of age and older must complete a separate application and pay the non-refundable application fee of $45. Upon receipt of the signed application and application fee, we will begin processing the application for approval. All information on the application is subject to verification.

  • We will verify employment and income, as well as current and previous residency with your landlords.
  • A credit report will be processed for all applicants.
  • Additional applications will continue to be accepted until the approved applicant has paid the security deposit.
As a representative of the property owner, we must act in their best interests and will choose the best application if more than one has applied.

Processing is normally completed within 24 hours, however it can take longer if a complication arises such as difficulties contacting your past landlords. Applications will be denied if falsified. Once approved, each applicant must sign the lease and will be fully responsible for the lease, rent or any fees due.
