The next step is to view properties that fit your search criteria. The purpose of this is two-fold:

• Get familiar with the current rental market

• Find the property that best suits your needs

It is recommended that the tenant(s) always enter the selection process with some form of payment ready to secure a home. The rental market is highly competitive and a day, even hours, can determine whether or not a property will remain available. In the case that the tenant come across a desired property, the Rental Agent's job is to ensure that the tenant will be able to secure it. To begin this process the tenant(s) will need to complete an RHA rental application(s) and remit a deposit. Acceptable forms of payment are check, money order, cash (or debit card or credit card, possibly in the future, if demand is there).
