I thought that everything was done randomly. I have a log number of 44, *** but I have been assuming that the log numbers are picked out in a batch, so it won't go from 1,2,3... etc however but 3**, 45,***, 1,***... etc. starting from 3** then going up to the next number randomly picked. Is that not correct or how does it really work. I have worked with Iafford before and they are great but again my log number was high so even though I was contacted twice to submit paperwork, the project ran out of units. I was hoping for this one!! I really want to move! And I qualify for 2 bedroom and 1 bedroom. I wish everyone luck! and thank you Brittany for everything, you are the only marketing agent that communicates with us! @brittanyv616

Hi friends!

I was also asked to submit the 1st set of docs on 12/22 and haven't heard back yet. I am CB and my log number is 12XXX so hoping to hear soon! Has anyone who was asked to submit docs on 12/22 gotten a tour yet?

Praying for this apartment- it's my dream. Good luck to us all!

Hi all! Just wanted to share my journey here in case anyone is interested. I am CB and my log number is 2XXX. I submitted my application on 9/25 and was initially contacted on 12/13 to submit the first set of documents. Then I was contacted on 1/2 for some additional documents. The day after (1/3) they reached out to me to have my employer fill out a form since they noticed a bonus check I had received and wanted to verify my total income. I was contacted that same day to schedule a viewing for the next day (1/4), which I attended.

I can confirm that the building was a dream. So spacious, beautiful, thoughtfully designed, and feels so luxurious. I was very impressed. I qualified for a studio as well as a 1BR.

Good luck, everyone!!!

Hey there,

You should be fine.

I got an apartment through Housing Connect a year ago and before that I was also subletting a room. This didn't disqualify me - I submitted my landlord's proof of ownership of the apartment and proof of rent payments. I consented to a credit check in the end since I wasn't on a lease. Also, don't be afraid to let them know your situation, I was very transparent with my agent at the time and it worked out.

I'm here if you want to dm me any more questions.

Submit a letter stating that you live where you live and pay x amount. Have it signed and notarized should be good to go with that! Good luck!

For anyone who has chosen a credit check instead, do you know what credit companies they use to get your credit report?
