If not, consider printing off the application instructions and handing it to people that express interest during a showing.

as long as you go with a well known or local lender that is verified real you should have no problem.. try to find local company that knows your market well.be very cautious of the too good to be true send me 500.00 or 1000.00 commitment fee brokers.. some are real many are just what we call in the industry "advance fee scammers"  If your a fan of American Greed watch the episode on REmington financial on U tube and google Ingrid Robinson this will give a look at what I am talking about advance fee scammers.. you make a post like this and you might even hear from a few.

Express the size as a percentage, of the entire square footage of the apartment.
