[Move In Benefits and Costs](https://know.movezen360.com/potential-residents?hsLang=en-us#move-in-benefits-and-costs) February 3, 2026 # What Application, Move-In, and Monthly Fees Should Residents Know About? ## These are standard fees within the industry and the issues are clear cut.  If it's not listed here, you are unlikely to see add-on fees at any point.  That doesn't mean that maintenance, deposits, and other issues won't also result in charges and deductions. ### 💲 Standard & Potential Resident Fees   Our goal is complete financial transparency. The items listed below represent our standard fees, which apply to approximately 90% of our move-ins. For all final terms and conditions, you must **always consult your lease**, as individual homeowner policies can sometimes interject.   [See:  What Should I Expect in Terms of Deposits for Move In?](https://know.movezen360.com/how-much-should-i-expect-to-pay-for-security-and-other-move-in-deposits?hsLang=en-us) ---   ### 1. Application & Move-In Fees   These are non-refundable fees required to process and secure your new home. | **Fee Name** | **Amount** | **Details & When Due** | | --- | --- | --- | | **Application Fee** | **$89 per Applicant** | Due at the time of application. All adult occupants and any cosigners must submit a full application and pay this fee. | | **Move-In Processing Fee** | **$175** | Only due if your application is fully approved, and you choose to secure and pay to move into the home. | | **Bank Login Income Verification Fee** | **$25 per Applicant** | This fee is only charged in approximately 30% of cases when we cannot reasonably verify income using traditional methods (common for self-employed applicants). You will be given the option to withdraw your application before this fee is charged. | ---   ### 2. Recurring & Contingent Charges   | **Fee Name** | **Details** | | --- | --- | | **Resident Benefits Package (RBP)** | **Average of ~$55 per month** (varies by home). This package includes valuable features such as rent payment credit reporting, air filter delivery, and annual home visits for minor common issues.  [Find details here.](https://know.movezen360.com/our-resident-benefits-package-a-to-z?hs_preview=OxUqXePL-211072560880&hsLang=en-us) | | **Late Fees** | Always apply and are detailed in your lease. Typically, this charge is **5% of the monthly rental rate** if rent is not received on time. | ---   ### 3. Pet Fees & Deposits When a property owner permits pets, bringing them almost always results in additional required payments. #### Understanding the Difference | **Charge Type** | **Definition** | | --- | --- | | **Fee** | A non-refundable, one-time or recurring charge (e.g., Pet Fee, Application Fee) that covers administrative or service costs. | | **Deposit** | A refundable charge (e.g., Security Deposit) held to cover potential damages and returned to the resident upon move-out, provided all lease terms are met. | The required fee or deposit amount for pets varies widely based on the specific property owner and the pet's size/type. Please confirm the exact pet terms for your desired home before applying. ---   ### 4. General Notes & Policy Context - **Utilities:** Utilities are not considered fees from our company. However, if you fail to properly convert utilities before move-in or turn them off before your lease ends, the homeowner may require us to charge you for the lapse, as authorized in your lease agreement. - **Added Costs:** Please be aware that some of the recent complications and requirements in our application process are due to a well-documented national rise in sophisticated application fraud. - **Other Charges:** While the list above covers standard fees, charges or deductions may still result from damages, maintenance issues, or security deposit deductions, as outlined in your lease agreement. -
