Hello and Welcome to Mountain Sky Realty,
As you start your rental search questions may arise. Please take a moment to read through our FAQ.
Do you offer seasonal or short-term rentals?
Our advertised prices are for a 12 month lease terms. Sorry, we currently DO NOT provide Monthly nor Short-Term (weekly/nightly) rentals. Any seasonal rentals will indicate the shorter lease term.
Do any of your rentals allow pets?
Unless noted otherwise, PETS ARE NOT ALLOWED. The following properties will allow pets on a case by case basis subject to an additional refundable $500/pet Pet Deposit and, if applicable, any Home Owners Association restrictions and/or monthly pet fees.
Do you offer furnished rentals?
Unless noted otherwise ALL our properties are offered UNFURNISHED and are equipped with built-in kitchen appliances, washer and dryer. If the property is furnished it will indicate so in the listing remarks.
Are utilities included?
Unless noted otherwise, our advertised rates DO NOT include utilities (Gas, Electricity, Water). However, for most Condominiums and Town Homes, water, sewer, trash and snowplowing services are usually included. Tenant shall place the required utilities into their name prior to move in. Please note: TV, cable/satellite, internet, phone are not considered utilities. Tenant shall arrange and pay for those services separately if needed.
What will utilities normally cost each month?
Because utility costs are based on actual usage, we are unable to accurately predict your cost. HOWEVER, DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF THE HOME, NUMBER OF OCCUPANTS, YOUR LIFESTYLE AND HABITS, UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES ELECTRIC AND GAS WILL LIKELY AVERAGE BETWEEN $200-$500/month over the course of 12 months.
What is the application process?
All adults over 18 yrs of age who wish to become our tenant will be named on the lease AND are required to submit an online application from which a credit and background report will be pulled at a cost of $30.00 per person. PLEASE NOTE: THERE IS NO APPLICATION FEE. ONCE WE'VE HAD A CHANCE TO REVIEW THE APPLICATION, YOU SHOULD RECEIVE A DIRECT EMAIL FROM TransUnion REQUESTING YOUR PERMISSION AND PAYMENT (credit/debit card) IN ORDER FOR US TO RECEIVE YOUR REPORTS. UNTIL, or UNLESS, YOU APPROVE THAT EMAIL AND PROVIDE THEM WITH A PAYMENT, NOTHING HAPPENS.
Are all rentals available to move in immediately?
Unless specified otherwise, all properties are available for immediate occupancy, pending approval of your application, reports and references which usually takes about 2 to 4 business days from the time we receive all applicants' credit/background reports.
What funds are required at move-in?
In order to better protect our client's investments, we require AT A MINIMUM, the 1st month, Last Month, 1 month Security Deposit and, where applicable a $500/pet Pet Deposit at lease signing or prior to move in.
For your convenience, we provide the physical address so that you can determine if the curb appeal, location, proximity to public transportation and/or schools falls within your needs.
Please plan ahead as due to the high volume of calls we receive and the fact that some properties are currently tenant/owner-occupied, same-day and weekend showings are rare.
You are now ready to search our available rentals.
We look forward to earning and retaining your business. Happy House Hunting!
The Team at Mountain Sky Realty.
