Fill out an online board application

Yes. An application can have multiple parties associated with it. However, every application must have an applicant and at least one unit owner. Each party has specific forms they must complete. If there is more than one applicant or unit owner (i.e., husband and wife), enter one person as the primary applicant or unit owner and set up the others as co-applicants or additional unit owners later.

Please note that the person initiating the application must enter the first name, last name, and email address of all other parties involved (e.g., applicant(s), unit owner(s), broker(s), etc.) to set them up in the application. Once all parties are correctly set up, each will receive a welcome email from eApply inviting them to the application.

Yes, however, applicants must log in to their account to grant brokers access to help review or complete their forms. In eApply, no one has access to another person’s forms unless that individual grants proxy access.

Once an application is set up, the main applicant’s name and email address are locked for editing. You will need to contact eApply support at 844.612.4956 or send an e-mail to [email protected] for assistance in making any changes.

If you receive an error message, please refer to the user guide for steps to fix the PDF. Ensure there are no punctuation or special characters in the file name and that it is in PDF format. You can always reach out to eApply support for assistance.

Yes. If both the husband and wife are named on the contract or sale/lease agreement and need to sign, they must each have their own account on the application.

No. Do not duplicate information in eApply. Joint accounts should be listed under one spouse, and the other can request exemptions for those requirements.

Account balances in the financial section should reflect the closing balance on the most recently uploaded statement.

A professional reference letter should provide information about you in a professional setting and is typically written by a former manager, supervisor or colleague who has worked with you and can speak directly about your work performance or how you contributed to a professional environment.

Retired applicants are not exempt from this requirement. Instead, retired applicants must obtain and upload a professional reference letter(s) from anyone with whom they had a professional relationship (i.e., former colleague or supervisor, attorney, broker, etc.).

Personal reference letters written by a family member are not acceptable.
