Our Application Process

Athens’ Best Properties takes great care when it comes to qualifying prospective tenants and gathering additional information for our properties. We run a complete credit check, a criminal background check, income verification, and communicate with past landlords to verify good payment history and property maintenance on each tenant applicant 18 years of age and older.

Step 1: Confirm property availability

Call or email our offices to determine if the property you are interested in is still available

Step 3: Visit the property  

Visit the property on your own or utilize Google maps to be sure the neighborhood meets your needs-is it close to your school, job, etc.  

Step 1: Schedule a showing 

Contact us via email or telephone and request an appointment to view the property.  Please note-if a property is occupied, we are required to give 24 hours notice to the current tenants.

Step 4: Complete an credit application and submit all necessary documentation. 

 Complete  a credit application through our secured website. Submit the application and all supporting documentation required, pay the required application fees.  NOTE: Each prospective tenant over the age of 18 will need to submit a separate application and fees.  Our current application fee is $45. 

Step 5: Approved! 

When your application is approved, submit any additional funds due (security deposit, first month’s rent, pet fees if applicable), and schedule your move-in!  If your application was not approved you will receive notice by email within 5 business days.
