About 1879 Portland Ave
ZERO ADMIN FEES! And our application is FREE! Applications are processed the same day and an agent will be reaching out to you immediately upon approval. This home is currently under renovation so it's not quite ready for showings, but we are accepting deposits from approved applicants. Our homes rent on a 'first come, first served' basis, and they rent fast! So if the home you want is no longer available, the good news is we're always adding new properties to our list. You'll need to have an approved application & all supporting documents on file before we can accept a deposit on a property, so we recommend you also go ahead and start our application process if you haven't already. Check out our website for app link & listings!
