What are the requirements for a rental application?

We will need to check your credit, proof of employment or income and references. Applicants must provide a combined income of approximately 3x the rent. Credit scores are required of at least 600 with little to no collections, judgements, etc. on file. We will also need photo ID and your SIN number for the application as it is required for the finalization of the lease agreement. 

A pet photo is also required if applying with a pet.

For New to Canada renters that do not yet have established credit we require 6 months worth of rent and the deposit up front. 

How do I book a viewing?

Once you have explored our available rental properties, remember the address of the unit you want to book a viewing for. 

Visit our online booking site and find a time that works for you and confirm the address. Our leasing team will reach out to you to confirm your attendance before your viewing. You can also text or call us at 780-650-1111 to book a viewing or send us an email at rent@rentuptown.ca if you need more information. 

Do I have to take care of lawn maintenance and snow removal?

In order to keep our rental operational costs as low as possible we require tenants to care for the exterior lawn and walkway all year round. 
This includes weed removal, lawn mowing, snow shovelling and adding gravel or sand on icy walks to ensure safety and to avoid any additional charges.

More information can be found in the current lease agreement. 

Do you offer short term rentals?

Not at this time. We are currently only offering 12 month rental agreements. We want our tenants to feel like our properties are your home for the long term. 

How many people can live in a home or suite?

We follow all housing and healthing standards as set by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, Government of Alberta and City of Edmonton to ensure there is acceptable required sleeping space for all occupants. This unfortunately may not be a fit for multiple families or larger families for the size of our rental properties.

Under the Standard, suitable housing is based on the following criteria:

  • A maximum of 2 persons per bedroom.
  • Household members, of any age, living as part of a married or common-law couple share a bedroom with their spouse or common-law partner.
  • Lone parents, of any age, have a separate bedroom from their children.
  • Household members aged 18 or over have a separate bedroom, except those living as part of a married or common-law couple.
  • Household members under 18 years of age of the same sex may share a bedroom, except lone parents and those living as part of a married or common-law couple.
  • Household members under 5 years of age of the opposite sex may share a bedroom if doing so would reduce the number of required bedrooms. This situation would arise only in households with an odd number of males under 18, and odd number of females under 18 and at least one female and one male under the age of 5.

An exception to the above is a household consisting of 1 individual living alone who may live in a studio apartment with no separate bedroom.

Please check your lease agreement or leasing agent to confirm the acceptable number of people allowed in your rental home. 

Is parking included?

Parking is determined by the home that you are renting.

Upper townhome and duplex rental units have access to a double deatched garage. Some townhomes have an outdoor energized parking stall. 

Units without assigned parking will only have street parking available. Our rental locations are close to green space areas so there is always ample parking nearby. 

What is the security deposit?

Pets are negotiable and pet policies are dependent on the property. A pet photo and references may be requested at time of application.

  • Suites are limited to cats and dogs at this time 
  • Cats and dogs must be spayed or neutered and licensed with the city
  • A maximum of 2 pets may be accepted dependent on the size of the property 
  • Size restrictions are dependent on the size of the property for instance a basement suite will have a smaller pet size limit versus a 3 bedroom duplex 

There is a non-refundable pet deposit of $250 and a monthly pet fee of $35/month*

*Please note this is subject to change without notice, please refer to your lease agreement for current terms. 

How long does it take to get an application approval?

We always recommend applying as soon as possible to secure the unit. The security deposit (one month's rent) is due at application. You will be notified of your application approval or denial within 72 hours. If your application is denied your security deposit is returned. Once approved we ask that you review the lease agreement. If you choose not to go forward with the rental unit you will forfeit $500 from your deposit to re-lease the unit. 

What happens after I apply?

  1. You will then be asked to send the security deposit (one month's rent) via e-transfer to a specified email that will be sent to you, to secure the home. You'll be notified of approval within 72 hours. Once approved please review the lease agreement. If you are not approved your security deposit will be returned.
     
  2. You will be contacted to schedule your move in.
     
  3. On your scheduled move in date, please have prepared a Void Cheque or PAD form for rent payments. Rent payments are debited from the account on the 1st of each month.

*Please note if you are approved and decide to not move forward with the rental unit you will forfeit $500 of your deposit for re-leasing of the rental unit. 

How do I pay my rent?

Rent payment is accepted by EFT (electronic funds transfer) only. No cheques, cash or other forms of payment are accepted. Tenants will supply the landlord with a PAD form or VOID cheque for payments to be directly debited from the account on the 1st of each month.

Your completed PAD form can be emailed to ar@rentuptown.ca
