Individual leasing means peace of mind for you. An individual lease is a per-bed lease. You sign a lease for a bed space in the apartment and share common areas with roommates. This means you are only responsible for your own installments. If a roommate transfers to another school or moves out of Replay for any reason, you do not have to worry about having to cover their portion of rent.
A guarantor is a co-signer for your lease agreement. Because students often don’t have an income, having a guarantor allows us to qualify you for a lease based on your guarantor’s income.
You will list the name and email of your guarantor during the application process, and your guarantor will receive an email to fill out their portion of the application.
We require all residents at Replay to have a guarantor or enroll in our Guarantor Waiver Program.
The Guarantor Waiver Program is hosted through our Third-Party Lease Insurance Program which fills in for a personal guarantor or parent cosigner, allowing you to sign a lease where you otherwise would not qualify and allows you to self-qualify as a student. At the time of signing, every resident agrees to the auto enrollment of the guarantor waiver program if a personal guarantor is not approved within 7 days of signing. This program includes a monthly fee for the term of the lease in order to cosign your lease, which is an additional cost per month.
For applicants who do not have a credit history in the US and/or a guarantor, you will automatically be enrolled into the Guarantor Waiver program.
We need your Social Security number to run the criminal background checks on primary residents and a SSN for all guarantors to complete the credit screening.
Replay is using software from Entrata to keep your personal information secure. All of your data, including your name, email, birth date, and Social Security number, are secured using encryption techniques that banks use to keep your financial information private. Data is transferred via an SSL/TLS connection using 2048-bit encryption between your computer and Entrata’s servers.
