Most condominiums allow leases shorter than 12 months, offering flexibility for those who need a shorter stay, while houses and townhomes, typically owned by individual landlords, favor more stable agreements of at least 12 months to avoid frequent tenant turnover. Furthermore, all promotions and incentives are tied to the lease term, so shorter contracts may not qualify for benefits such as waived fees or rent discounts.

It is a common question and the answer is simple: it depends mostly on you. Before you apply we recommend reviewing the property’s prerequisites to avoid denials and delays. In general the approval process takes between five and ten business days and there is nothing you can do to speed it up. We suggest applying well in advance to prevent any issues or setbacks if your application is not approved.
