​

• an accurate, complete and legible application;

• documentation of all income and expenses;

• positive references from previous landlords;

• a written legal lease from the new landlord;

• a signed RDGP landlord form (stating that the new landlord understands the RDGP and is willing to participate in the program knowing that they will not receive cash upfront).

 

Applicants may be denied if:

• they do not submit an accurate, complete and legible application with the required supporting documentation;

• they do not meet the income eligibility guidelines;

• the Chaffee Housing Authority is unable to verify their employment or income;

• it is determined that they cannot afford the rental unit;

• they have a prior history of damaging rental housing;

• they have consistently failed to pay rent in the past;

• they have failed to pay and/or defaulted on a prior RDGP Repayment Agreement (“Payment Plan”).

 

The RDGP is not an emergency assistance program; the application process may require 10 or more business days to complete, beginning the date a completed application, with all supporting documentation, is received.

If you have any questions, please call the Rental Deposit Guarantee Program at ‪719-920-3497.
