Common questions

What renters ask us.

Why don't you pull credit?

We've found that direct verification of income, identity, and prior rental history is a more accurate predictor of payment success than a single credit score. It also opens housing access for people whose financial life doesn't fit a credit bureau's model — first-time renters, recent grads, self-employed workers, and anyone rebuilding after a setback.

Who qualifies?

Anyone meeting our income, identity, and prior rental verification standards. We look at the full picture: documented income (typically 2.5x the monthly rent), a valid government-issued ID, and a positive reference from a recent landlord. Court records are reviewed individually per HUD guidance.

How long does a decision take?

Most decisions are returned within 2–3 business days after we receive all your documents. Slower if we're waiting on a landlord reference to come back to us.

Is there an application fee?

No. Applying with the OKCREAL App is free. No card needed at submission, no hidden charges. We've removed the application fee so cost doesn't stand between you and a home.

What if I'm denied?

You'll receive a written adverse action notice explaining the reasons. You can apply again after 90 days, or transfer to a different OKCREAL property — sometimes a different unit is a better fit. Talk to our leasing team at 405-256-2614.

Will my information be safe?

All submissions are encrypted in transit and stored securely. Your data is used only for tenant screening and never sold. Documents are retained per Oklahoma fair-housing record-keeping rules.
