Who we help

Built for the people other landlords turn away.

If your story does not fit on a checkbox, we want to hear it. We review every application individually.

1

Past eviction on record

An eviction does not mean you cannot rent again. We look at your situation now, not just your past.

2

Bad or no credit

Low score, medical debt, no credit history at all — we have placed people in every one of these situations.

3

Broken lease or felony record

A yes answer on a background question does not automatically disqualify you. Tell us the truth and let us work with you.

Real properties

Actual homes, not stock photos.

Every photo on this page is a real property we manage or have placed people in. What you see is what you get.

What we promise

Four things we will not do to you.

✓

We will not ghost you

You will hear back from us within 24 hours, every time. Approved or not, you get a real answer.

✓

We will not waste your time

If we cannot help you, we tell you on the first call so you can keep looking. No false hope.

✓

We will not surprise you with fees

The application fee covers your credit and background check only. That cost is passed straight through. Nothing hidden.

✓

We will not lock you into something shady

No long-term contracts before you have seen the place. Standard lease, normal terms.

“

We charge for the application because the credit and background check costs real money. We pass that cost straight through. No upcharge, no profit on the fee. If we can help you, you will know in 24 hours. If we cannot, you will know that in 24 hours too.

Frequently asked

Real questions, straight answers.

I have an eviction on my record. Can you really help me? +
Often, yes. An eviction does not automatically disqualify you. We look at when it happened, what caused it, and what your situation looks like now. Be honest in your application and we will work with you.
What credit score do I need? +
There is no hard cutoff. Low credit, no credit, medical debt — we have placed people in every one of these situations. Income, employment, and your honesty about your situation matter more than the number alone.
How much is the application fee? +
The fee covers your credit and background check only. We pass that cost straight through with no upcharge. We will tell you the exact amount and how to pay before any check is run. No surprises.
What if I get denied? +
We tell you why, in plain English, within 24 hours. Sometimes we can suggest a step that would change the outcome later. Sometimes we cannot help, and we tell you that too so you can keep looking.
Where are your properties? +
We operate in the Dallas, Texas area. The exact units we have available change month to month. Apply and we will match you to what fits.
How fast can I move in? +
Sometimes within a week, sometimes a few weeks. It depends on what is open and how fast you can complete your part. Tell us how soon you need a home in the application.
