A West Virginia rental application is a document that is filled out by a possible tenant and provides the necessary information for a landlord to run a background check before signing a lease. To fill the form, the tenant has to enter their personal information including details about income and employment. Once they’ve viewed the tenant’s background, the landlord will make a decision on whether to approve or deny the rental application.
