Thank you for considering one of our exceptional Florida rental homes. As a management company we represent hundreds of property owners, most of who live out of state and have entrusted us to manage their property for them. As a potential customer, we would ask you to review the following information.

We invite you to view any of the homes we manage on our availability list at www.CentralFLRentals.com . We do not rent any unit we manage “SIGHT UNSEEN.” Some properties may be occupied or being worked on, so an appointment with an existing tenant may be required. Neither Legends Realty nor the owner of the property you’re interested in make any representation as to future repairs or redecorating prior to your moving in unless it is in writing. It will be your responsibility when you view the property to be sure that the property fits your needs as it is shown.

All information collected for the approval or denial of this application is considered confidential in nature and for company use only. The leasing agent is not authorized to negotiate on behalf of Legends Realty. Verbal representations are non-binding. Once your application is submitted to Legends Realty, the approval/denial and negotiation process (if any) will be handled by the property manager in charge of the property for which you are applying. In the event an applicant is denied an adverse action notice will be sent to the applicant. The applicant will then be able to contact the consumer credit reporting agency for additional details.
