Our application process is done thru SmartMove a Service of  TransUnion Rental Screening Solutions.. SmartMove gives you the ability to apply for a lease while protecting your personal identifying information.

When you use SmartMove, you provide your Social Security number directly to TransUnion—not your landlord. SmartMove verifies your identity and provide us with a leasing recommendation, credit report and criminal history. We do not see personal identifying information such as Social Security number or bank account numbers. This way, your sensitive information remains safe with TransUnion, a secure, trusted credit reporting company that safely houses credit data for approximately 500 million people worldwide.


Plus, your credit score is not impacted when you use SmartMove. Unlike when a landlord or lender retrieves your credit report, SmartMove lets you be the one to initiate the request for your own file to be sent so it's a 'soft hit' on your history, which doesn't impact your credit.


How SmartMove works?
Unlike traditional screening methods, SmartMove is all online. You'll receive an email request from us the landlord with a link to MySmartMove.com. Simply create a secure account in seconds, review our request and grant our consent.  We will be receiveing notification instantly, helping to speed up the rental application process and keep your personal identifying information more secure.

The cost of your application is $30, non-refundable, payable to Smart Move.  To start the application process, please send e-mail to rent@bellavistacondo.bytes2help.com with subject "Bella Vista Condo #213" or call 773-290-3804.
