FAQ > Is there an Application Fee? > How Long Does It Take To Process My Application?
It generally takes 24-48 hours to process an application.
HOMES labeled as "READY NOW"
- take priority over "expected available" soon.
- We try to complete your application within 24-48 hours on business days.
- Sometimes processing takes longer due to items beyond our control.
- Such things as verifying your rental history sometimes requires written or faxed requests and former Landlords do not always make You their top priority; however, we are successful at processing your application within 24-48hrs in most cases.
IMPORTANT: Once approved, You have 24hrs to properly complete your rental agreement or Oaktown may move to the next application for this property. We apologize for this 24 hour rule; but, this prevents more problems than it causes.
For example, imagine you want the home on 123 Main Street and you learned an approved applicant is in front of you. You know they have 24 hours from the time they are approved before they disqualify their own application for not showing up, and now you can rent the home you wanted.
