Resident FAQs

WMG rents properties in most areas of Orange and Seminole Counties, and a limited presence in parts of Lake and Volusia Counties.

We specialize in unfurnished, privately-owned properties. We do not manage large apartment complexes, and we do not rent out single rooms.

Our standard lease term is one year. However, if a resident is in the military, WMG will always accommodate a military transfer or change of orders which results in the need to terminate the Lease Agreement early. Proper documentation is required in accordance with Florida Statutes. Under certain circumstances, with written owner approval, WMG may agree to a lease term shorter than one year. However, WMG will not consider any Lease term shorter than seven months.

WMG cannot hold properties. Applications for rental consideration are received and processed on a first come basis. Rental Applications from other applicants are accepted until a Rental Application is approved. WMG cannot guarantee that any unit viewed will still be available by the time the Rental Application is processed. Because of the fiduciary relationship WMG has with Property Owners, if more than one Rental Application is submitted before approval can be achieved, then the first qualified applicant will be approved for placement. Remaining qualified applicants may consider other properties available from WMG's rental list.

The application fee is $80.00 per applicant. A separate rental application is required for each adult, eighteen years of age or older, intending to occupy the Premises. Application fees are non-refundable.

Processing a rental application usually takes between two and three business days. Sometimes approval of Homeowner or Condominium Associations, Property Owners, or unavoidable circumstances may cause processing to take longer. Processing of rental applications includes verification of information in multiple categories including but not limited to:

• rental history
• credit history
• eviction history
• criminal background
• employment and income history

Each application must be filled out COMPLETELY and signed by the applicant. Incomplete applications will not be processed. Applications will not be processed if the application fee is not paid.

Applicants must be 18 years of age or older.

Upon approval, it is the resident’s responsibility to provide the following - in certified funds, i.e. cashier's check or money order (no personal checks accepted) - at time of lease:

1. Rent
2. Security Deposit
3. Transaction Fee
4. Resident Benefit Package Fee
5. 动物的费用(如适用)

The minimum security deposit required is equal to one month's rent. Under certain circumstances, additional security deposit may be required as a condition of approval, per our written resident-qualification criteria.

For most of our rental properties, the Resident is responsible for all utilities associated with the property. If any utilities are to be included in the rental price, this will usually be indicated in the advertising and is always included in the Lease Agreement.

A separate Rental Application is required for each adult, eighteen years of age or older, intending to occupy the Premises. A clear and readable photo identification (driver's license, military ID, State ID, passport ID) must be presented with each Rental Application. Each Rental Application must be filled out completely and signed by the applicant. Complete Rental Applications include: "Rental Application Policies and Resident Qualification Criteria," "Rental Application Disclosure and Authorization," "Rental Application," and "clear and readable photo identification."

A processing fee of $70.00 must accompany each Rental Application. The processing fee is non-refundable. No Rental Application will be processed without a processing fee. Rental Payments, deposits or other fees are not accepted without an approved Rental Application.

Rent is due on the 1st of the month. Residents are encouraged to use our Appfolio online payment system for ease and convenience. Residents can also make electronic cash payments at participating 7-Eleven, CVS, Casey's General Stores and Ace Cash Express locations. Otherwise, payments can be made via personal check, money order or cashier’s check.

Yes. There are two options for paying rent through Rentvine, which have different associated technology fees:

1. eCheck (ACH) FREE!
2. Credit Cards and Debit Cards for rent and other charges - 4.0% convenience fee (based on the charge amount)

Note: This is an optional payment method. All fees associated with use of the Rentvine resident portal for payment processing are established and received by Rentvine, not WMG. Our Dropbox at the rear of our building is always available should you prefer to pay your rent via check, money order, or cashier's check in order to avoid a convenience fee.

However, repairs required because of abuse, misuse, neglect, or damage caused by the Resident, occupants, pets, guests, family members, or any other persons related to or affiliated in any way with Resident, shall be the responsibility of the Resident.

Also, additional non-refundable animal fees or additional security deposits may be required at the sole discretion of the Property Owner.
