Common Questions

No matter your stay type, these questions are here to put your mind at ease.

What happens after I submit my application?

You’ll receive a conditional lease right after applying, which you can share with any third party (such as an insurance company or employer) if needed. No worries—you won’t be charged until your booking is officially confirmed.

Our team reviews applications within 1–2 business days, and once approved, your lease becomes active then.

Is my personal data (SSN, ID, etc.) safe with Month2Month?

Yes. We take data security seriously and conduct identity verification through Persona, a trusted third-party platform used by leading financial institutions. Background checks are processed securely through TransUnion, one of the major U.S. credit bureaus.

All information is protected with bank-level encryption and handled in compliance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act, meaning it can only be accessed with your consent and solely for approving your rental application.

Will the background check affect my credit?

Relax! We only conduct a soft background check through TransUnion, so your credit score is safe and won’t be impacted.

Is the application fee refundable?

No worries—an application fee only applies under our Silver Plan, and we charge it after your booking is approved and confirmed. With the Gold and Diamond Plans, there’s no application fee at all.

Can I save my application and return to it later?

Absolutely! We’ve designed the process to be simple and flexible. By signing up and logging in, you can save your progress at any time and return later to complete your application. If you need help along the way, our housing specialists are just a phone call or email away.

What are the differences between individual, insurance, and corporate application routes?
