There are two required steps in the application process:
1. Screening Application
Includes a credit, criminal, and rental history check. A $40 non-refundable screening fee is due for each household member age 18 or older. Please review our screening criteria before applying.
2. Income & Asset Verification
Once screening is passed, applicants must complete a REA questionnaire and submit supporting documents, including:
Government-issued ID
Birth certificates for minors
Proof of income, assets, and student status (if applicable)
Most full-time student households do not qualify, though some exceptions may apply. Please ask us for details.
Our compliance team will review and certify eligibility in accordance with housing program rules. Households must qualify at move-in and complete annual re-certifications thereafter.
* Income limits are based on HUD's MTSP guidelines for Snohomish County as of April 1, 2025.
** Rental rates and availability are subject to change until a lease is signed.
