[Application & Leasing Process](https://help.nomadlease.com/shared-resources?hsLang=en#application-leasing-process) # What is Nomad's application process? ## Step by step breakdown of Nomad's application process and timeframes. ![Gemini\_Generated\_Image\_4ka1xc4ka1xc4ka1](https://help.nomadlease.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Gemini_Generated_Image_4ka1xc4ka1xc4ka1.png?width=670&height=370&name=Gemini_Generated_Image_4ka1xc4ka1xc4ka1.png) **Step 1.** Submit a rental application through Nomad's 3rd party provider, Boom. Find application links for all of our active properties [here](https://screen.boompay.app/units?token=PLqUbqPWKJ1rq2whvYD3). *Estimated completion time is 10-30 minutes per application.* **Step 2.** Once your application has been submitted in full, our team of experts will conduct a review to determine eligibility. We will work with you to collect supplemental information if needed and keep you up to date throughout the process. *Estimated completion time is 0-3 business days.* **Step 3.** If/when you are deemed eligible, our team will notify the homeowner of the good news. Owners are responsible for selecting their next tenant amongst all eligible applicants at their property. **Step 4.** Once the homeowner has made their selection, they will generate a lease directly through their Nomad portal, using a lawyer-vetted lease template. After signing said lease, the document will automatically be forwarded to all tenant(s) from the selected applicant group. *Estimated completion time may vary depending on owner timeline.* **Step 5.** Applicants review and sign the lease at their convenience. Lessors hold the right to cancel an unsigned lease after 24 hours, but most will provide extra time upon request. **Step 6.** Once a lease has been signed in full, the contract is considered fully executed. However, the security deposit must be paid by 11:59 PM on the second day after lease signing for the lease to remain valid. The property owner retains the right to void the agreement if funds are not received by that deadline. **Step 7.** Owner and tenant coordinate move-in details directly. Nomad does facilitate this part of the process.  **Step 8.** Ongoing maintenance requests are submitted through the Nomad portal and are surfaced to the owner for review/approval. While Nomad's portal serves as a platform for requests and repairs to be monitored, Nomad is not a property manager and therefore does not directly handle maintenance requests. - [Owners](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#main-content) - [My Account](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#my-account) - [About Nomad](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#about-nomad) - [Guaranteed Rent, Payments and Taxes](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#guaranteed-rent-payments-and-taxes) - [Marketing](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#marketing) - [Managing My Property](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#managing-my-property) - [Property Protection Plan](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#property-protection-plan) - [Rent Advance](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#rent-advance) - [Applications and Leases](https://help.nomadlease.com/owners?hsLang=en#applications-and-leases) - [Residents](https://help.nomadlease.com/residents?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Application](https://help.nomadlease.com/residents?hsLang=en#application) - [Resident FAQs](https://help.nomadlease.com/residents?hsLang=en#resident-faqs) - [Move In & During Your Lease](https://help.nomadlease.com/residents?hsLang=en#move-in-during-your-lease) - [Shared Resources](https://help.nomadlease.com/shared-resources?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Account Issues](https://help.nomadlease.com/shared-resources?hsLang=en#account-issues) - [Move-Ins](https://help.nomadlease.com/shared-resources?hsLang=en#move-ins) - [Move-Outs](https://help.nomadlease.com/shared-resources?hsLang=en#move-outs) - [During Your Lease](https://help.nomadlease.com/shared-resources?hsLang=en#during-your-lease) - [Application & Leasing Process](https://help.nomadlease.com/shared-resources?hsLang=en#application-leasing-process) - [Getting Started - Resident Led Showings](https://help.nomadlease.com/getting-started-resident-led-showings?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Getting Started](https://help.nomadlease.com/getting-started-resident-led-showings?hsLang=en#getting-started) - [Getting Started - Professional Tenant Placement - Resident Tours](https://help.nomadlease.com/getting-started-professional-tenant-placement-resident-tours?hsLang=en) [![Nomad\_logo\_dark\_green-1](https://help.nomadlease.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Nomad_logo_dark_green-1.png?width=140&height=70&name=Nomad_logo_dark_green-1.png "Nomad_logo_dark_green-1")](http://nomadlease.com?hsLang=en) Copyright © 2026, Nomad
