Wolfnest Property Management

Thanks for asking your question. In the interest of full transparency, the rental price is not an all-inclusive price. Residents can expect additional charges for things like utilities, lawn care, renters insurance, move out cleaning, etc.

Hi Brianna. It's for security reasons. If you think about the showing process, we are essentially granting access to an asset worth hundreds of thousands of dollars to a complete stranger on trust. In order to build this trust, we ask that you provide identification, and verify that identification with a vaild credit or debit card. You aren't charged of course. This is simply a way of ensuring that you will conduct your showing in accordance with our procedures and return the key upon completion. This "skin in the game" so to speak, disincentivizes bad actors who might look to take advantage.

You can apply online for any of our properties. Point your browser to wolfnest.com and click on "search SLC rentals" in the upper right hand corner. That page will list all of our available rentals, and each property has an "apply" button in the lower right hand corner of the listing. **Please note: Be sure to review our rental application criteria and confirm listing availability before you apply**

Hi Lisa. Great question. The problem with using a government ID is that it could be lost or stolen, and unlike a credit card, you can't simply deactivate it to prevent others from using it. The authorization should only be for $1, just to confirm the card is valid and not expired. While I can certainly appreciate the fact that it may sound a bit "scammy" to ask for a credit card, please understand that we are granting you access to an asset worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and need some assurances in return. Please let us know if you have any additional questions or concerns!
