Golfview Village offers future residents the convenience of filling out their application and submitting their application fee online.
Step One
In order to satisfy the demand for quality, affordable rental homes and to maintain high standards of appearance, maintenance and security, we have adopted the following procedures for processing your application and lease at Golfview Village. Please take a moment to read our rental procedures.
Golfview Village Rental Procedure
- You fill out and submit a rental application to the Golfview Village rental office.
- Every adult (other than a spouse) age 18 and above who will be living in the townhome must fill out a rental application.
- Every adult, age 18 and above who will be living in the townhome must present two pieces of identification (one being a photo ID) at the time the application is submitted.
- Every adult, age 18 and above who will be living in the townhome must submit a "Permission and Waiver for Information Release" which allows Golfview Village management to obtain any available information regarding criminal or quasi-criminal violations from the Rantoul Police Department or other Police Departments as needed.
- Every adult, age 18 and above who will be living in the townhome must submit a "Permission and Waiver for Employment & Landlord Information Release" which allows Golfview Village management to obtain information regarding past and present employment and landlord history.
- A $30.00 non-refundable Application Fee is charged to help defray the costs of performing a credit check and verifying your references. Only one application fee is required, regardless of the number of additional co-applicants. If your rental application is approved, the application fee will be credited toward your first month's rent.
- The Golfview Village business office will verify your credit and personal references, generally within 1-3 business days.
- We will notify you when your application is approved and invite you to make an appointment to select a townhome from the available inventory. Together, we will set a tentative move-in date, based upon your desires and the availability of townhomes.
- If your application is not approved, we will notify you by phone or email and include the reason why it was not approved.
- When you select your townhome, a $99.00 security deposit, or other amount specified by the business office, $15.00 fire extinguisher fee, plus any necessary pet or waterbed deposits will be required at this time. Because of this moderate amount, your security deposit may not cover additional cleaning charges at move-out, if the condition of the townhome is not up to our standards. Your deposit will hold your townhome until your scheduled move-in date. Pets are allowed at the sole discretion of Triple R Development, LLC. No pets are allowed without prior written permission from us. We require a pet deposit of $50.00 per pet. No more than two (2) pets may be kept in the premises. Guard dogs (such as Pit Bulls, Rottweilers and Dobermans), poisonous snakes, and any other pets which might be considered dangerous to other tenants are not permitted at Golfview Village. Pets are allowed in townhomes carpeted by Golfview Village, only at the sole discretion of Triple R Development LLC. If this exception is made, the pet deposit increases to $100.00 per pet. You are free to install your own area rugs or carpet at your expense, but you may not use carpet glue, tacking strips or carpet tacks or nails. If you want to use a waterbed, we require an additional $50.00 deposit per waterbed.
- The first month's rent, plus charges for trash pick-up, are due when you move in. If you move in on a day other than the first day of the month, your rent and trash charges for the remaining portion of the month will be pro-rated based upon a 30-day month. If you move in after the 21st of the month, you will be required to pay for the remaining days of the current month, plus the rent for the first full month.
- You will need to set-up electric, water, sewer, and gas service through the Village of Rantoul, 333 South Tanner Street, (217) 893-1661 ext #1. The Village of Rantoul requires a $230.00 deposit from you to set-up these services. You will need to show that you have done this before you move in.
- Trash pick-up is normally scheduled for Wednesdays. The charge for trash collection is $23.00 per month and is collected with your monthly rent.
- Cable television and telephone service are available from Mediacom, 1-800-874-2924.
- Mail service is provided to individual locked mailboxes conveniently located near your townhome. To obtain a key, you simply show a copy of your lease to the postal clerk at the Rantoul Post Office, 401 North Maplewood Drive and they will deliver the key to the Golfview Village office for you to pick up. The mailboxes next to your front door are no longer used for U.S. mail. They are now used for newspaper delivery and Golfview Village notices and newsletters.
- Your lease will require you to obtain a renters' insurance policy to cover possible damage or loss to your own possessions and any losses which may result from your negligence. You can obtain this insurance coverage from the company of your choice. You must present a copy of the policy or a temporary insurance "binder" before you move in. Triple R Development, LLC. should be named as an additional interested party on your policy.
- Your monthly rent is due on the first day of each month in the form of a personal check, a cashier's check, cash in the exact amount or money order. Cash payments are not accepted in the mail slot they should be receipted in the office. You may also pay online using your credit card. Payments other than by credit card should be mailed or delivered to the Golfview Village leasing office as follows: Golfview Village,
