The minimum credit score must be met by at one member of the household. The minimum credit score is 600. Credit decisions are received with “approved”, or “declined” decisions from our trusted third party vendor. A complete analysis of the credit report will be done to determine if further consideration is applicable. If your application is declined, we will issue a letter that will allow the household to contact the credit reporting agency to understand why a declined decision was reached. We encourage everyone to review our screening criteria prior to submitting an application.
