Your income will be verified as part of property management's application process. Applicants may choose to have their income verified in one of two ways:

 . By connecting their bank account through their vendor, Plaid. Plaid will automatically check your account for recurring income streams.

 · By uploading supporting documents such as pay stubs, bank statements, deposit statements or award letters.

PMG aims to make booking easy, transparent, and affordable. There are three payments that are required in order to book a room:

• Membership  Application Fee: The Membership application fee covers the cost of your background check and employment verification. This fee varies based on current promotions. Please note, this fee is non-refundable.
• Move-In  Fee: The move-in fee covers the cost of cleaning and getting your room ready for move-in. The move-in fee varies per room but averages $100.
• Membership  Dues: Members with documented income (W-2, 1099, self-employed, SSI) will have to pay up to 2 weeks and prorated Membership dues before move-in.  Members on unemployment or between jobs must pay a larger portion of dues upfront.

• Your weekly payment covers utilities like electricity, water, heating, and waste management, and wireless internet at no cost to you. All property management homes come equipped with wireless internet at no extra cost to you. At many homes, there is free on-site parking available. As a Member, you’ll also have access to free 24/7 telemedicine services and credit reporting.

In most PMGs, the Members of the home are responsible for cleaning and purchasing cleaning supplies. Talk to your housemates about a cleaning schedule and how best to share this responsibility and cost. What does a clean home mean? Kitchen:Bathroom:Trash:

• The  sink is always empty and the stove is always spotless.
• Every  time you use a dish, pan or utensil, clean it, dry it and put it away.  Want to soak something? Heat it up and clean it instead.
• Clean  up any splatters on the stove immediately. Put away pots and pans that  aren’t in use.
• Shared  bathrooms must be kept clean at all times.
• No  foreign objects may be thrown in the toilets or sinks at any time. This  includes, but is not limited to, feminine products, Wet wipes, packaging,  dental floss and hair. Fixing clogged toilets and sinks can run to several  hundred dollars and these costs will be passed through directly to  members.
• All  trash must be thrown in the proper receptacle. Please take out trash  before the receptacle gets too full.
• All  trash must be placed in the proper outside trash bin. Outside trash bins  need to be pulled to the curb on trash day and pulled back to the home  after pickup.

Both PMG and their Hosts are committed to providing affordable housing for Members, however sometimes rate increases are necessary for a Host to continue operations. Hosts must adhere to the following set of rules when raising room rates:

• Hosts may only raise the room rate for Members who have resided in the room for  90 or more days costs  may not increase a Member's room rate more than once in 6 months costs  must give 30 days' notice of any room rate increase
• Hosts  must give 30 days notice of any room rate increase
• Hosts  may not increase the room rate by more than $10 in each of these periods
