Allterra Property Solutions keeps a wait list of eligible pre-applicants for their housing. Interested pre-applicants may mail, fax or email their pre-application to the Allterra Property Solutions main office. The receptionist will date stamp and review each pre-application to determine if applicant meets the basic eligibility requirements of income, rental and unit size. Each pre-application (along with $25 per application) received from fax, online, mail, or email will be sent a letter indicating whether they are eligible and placed on the wait list, or ineligible and reason for denial. The receptionist will review eligibility with walk-ins to initially determine eligibility. Each eligible pre-applicant may be placed on both the apartment and duplex wait list for the appropriate size unit for which they are eligible. Eligible pre-applicants will be called when the appropriate size unit is available. Pre-applicants will be given one opportunity to choose an available unit. If they do not follow through, they will be removed from the Wait List and will not be able to reapply for three months from the last time they were offered housing.
