📥 What is rental verification?
Rental verification is part of our screening process. Sagareus contacts your current/previous landlord(s) to confirm that:
-
Rent was paid on time
-
The lease terms were followed (no major violations)
-
Proper notice was given and the account is settled
Speed things up:
If available, upload a tenant ledger showing a $0 balance to your application or email it to leasing@sagareus.com

❓ I was declined and don’t understand why

📋 Can I run my business out of the property?
No. The lease does not allow residents to use the premises for any business purpose without prior written approval from the landlord. This applies even if your business qualifies as a legal home occupation under city or county rules. The property must be used solely as your primary full-time residence.
Examples of home businesses that require written approval include (but are not limited to):
-
Hair, nail, or beauty salons
-
Childcare or daycare services
-
Pet sitting, grooming, or boarding
-
Auto repair or detailing
-
Food preparation, catering, or baking businesses
-
In-home retail, product distribution, or storage for resale
-
Any business that increases traffic, deliveries, noise, or impact to neighbors
If you would like to request permission, please email leasing@sagareus.com with details about your business. Management will review your request and confirm whether it is permitted under your lease.
