Common questions
What documents do I need to apply?
Most properties ask for a government-issued photo ID, proof of income covering recent pay periods, contact information for prior landlords, and the application fee. Self-employed applicants are often asked for tax returns or bank statements. Each property publishes its exact criteria.
What income do I need to qualify?
A common benchmark is gross monthly income at two and a half to three times the monthly rent, though every property sets its own published criteria. Co-signers or guarantors are sometimes allowed when income alone does not meet the threshold.
Are pets allowed?
Pet policy varies by community. Many allow common household pets with a deposit, monthly pet rent, and breed or weight limits. Federal Fair Housing rules require reasonable accommodation for assistance animals separate from a pet policy.
How are security deposits handled in Texas?
Texas Property Code Chapter 92 governs residential security deposits. After move-out and a written forwarding address from the resident, the landlord generally has 30 days to refund the deposit or provide an itemized list of deductions.
Can I break my lease if I get military orders?
Yes. Active-duty service members can terminate a residential lease under the federal Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) when receiving qualifying orders, with proper written notice and a copy of the orders or commanding officer's letter. State law adds further protections.
What is the application fee and is it refundable?
Application fees cover the cost of screening reports and processing time and are generally non-refundable, even if the application is denied. Holding or admin fees may be refundable depending on the property's written policy and timing.
Do you offer short-term or month-to-month leases?
Some properties offer short-term or month-to-month options at a premium over the standard 12-month rate. Availability varies by floor plan and season. Ask about current options when scheduling a tour.
What is the difference between a property manager and a leasing agent?
The property manager oversees the community and the budget, while a leasing professional handles tours, applications, lease signing, and resident inquiries. On large communities the roles are separate. On smaller properties they may overlap.
Is renters insurance required?
Many communities require renters insurance with a minimum liability limit and proof of coverage at move-in. The lease specifies exact requirements. Coverage protects personal belongings and provides liability protection.
How does Fair Housing apply when I tour or apply?
Federal and Texas Fair Housing laws prohibit discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin, sex, familial status, and disability. Leasing staff apply the same published criteria to every applicant. Reasonable accommodation requests for disability are reviewed under those laws.
