Secondary Applications

If an application has already been submitted, the Property Management Company will accept one back-up application per property, but WILL NOT PROCESS the application, until the first position application has been officially denied. Your application still must include all of the necessary documents and funds to be placed in second position for the property. If the first application is approved, then all your funds will be refunded.
