​​

Program subject to change. Fort Knox Property Management and Second Nature reserve the right to modify, add, or discontinue any benefit, provider, or feature of the Resident Benefits Package at any time without prior notice. Benefit availability may vary by property and by your lease terms. Some benefits depend on property features, for example, homes without an HVAC system do not receive air filters. The price of the package does not change if a benefit is unavailable. Your signed lease and RBP Addendum govern in the event of any conflict with this summary.

​

Holding Deposit Terms: 

Once your rental application is approved, a $300 holding deposit is required to reserve the property and remove it from the market.

​

This holding deposit is credited in full toward your security deposit at lease signing.

If you sign the lease and move forward as scheduled, the entire $300 is applied to your security deposit balance.

​

If you cancel, withdraw, or fail to sign the lease by the agreed deadline after approval, the $300 holding deposit is forfeited and non-refundable. This amount compensates Fort Knox Property Management for taking the property off the market and turning away other qualified applicants during the hold period.

The holding deposit must be paid by the deadline stated in your approval notice. If it is not received by that deadline, the approval may be withdrawn and the property offered to other applicants.

The holding deposit is not rent and does not grant any right of occupancy. No keys, access, or possession are provided until the lease is signed and all required move-in funds are paid in full.
