Welcome home frequently asked questions

What are my move-in costs?

New residents’ move-in costs include a security deposit, administrative and move-in fees, and the rent for the current month of their lease start date. Learn more about our move-in fees on our Leasing fees guide. For residents moving in after the 19th of the month, their move-in fees will include payment of the next month’s rent.

How soon can I move in?

Your Invitation Homes leasing agent will guide you through the entire move-in process. We'll get you moved in right away once your application is approved, the home is ready, and your deposit and other move-in funds are received.

How do I pay my deposit and move-in fees?

Deposits (e.g., security and pet deposits) and move-in fees (e.g., rent and HOA fees) can be paid online in your application dashboard on your profile.

What if I can't pay my security deposit within 48 hours? Can I have an extension?

If you cannot pay your security deposit within 48 hours, we cannot offer an extension, and the house will be placed back on the market. However, as long as it is still on the market, your leasing professional can help you reapply for the home within 30 days. After 30 days, you must start a new application for the home.

Can I move into a home on the weekend?

You can move into your home anytime that works for you as long as your lease term has begun as written in your leasing agreement.

When will I receive the keys to the home?

New residents will get the keys to their homes before or during the Move-in orientation. Your leasing professional will tell you how to access your house without the keys on your lease start date.

What if I can't move in within 14 days of submitting my application?

You must sign a lease and take possession of the home within 14 days of submitting your application for an available home. Read more about our application process.

What is the move-in visit?

Your Move-In Orientation is a key part of ProCare, our proactive maintenance program. During the orientation we explain everything you need to know about living in your home, including ways to help maintain it. And remember: your home had to pass a rigorous inspection prior to move-in. Find out more about ProCare.

Do I need anything to participate in the move-in orientation?

No, you don’t need to bring anything to participate in a move-in orientation. Our maintenance pro just needs to meet a resident who is at least 18 years old before they can begin.

Can I request a later move-in date?

You move-in anytime after your lease start date. However, your lease must start within 14 days of submitting your application for an available home. Read more about our application process .
