and occupancy standards will apply. We
will conduct a background check for all drug-related or violent criminal
activity. |

our appointment, we will review rules, polices and procedures, along with
current payment standards. You
will receive all of the necessary paperwork to find a unit. |

allow 3
to 4 weeks for the portability
process to be complete. This
