One bad chapter is not a permanent verdict

Why we exist

Fort Worth landlords filed just under 46,000 eviction notices in 2023. Texas filings are public from the day they hit the docket and they do not expire, so a case that was dismissed still shows up in a screening file years later. Meanwhile roughly 43% of Fort Worth households rent, occupancy runs 93 to 95%, and the average apartment goes for $1,438 a month.

Put those together and you get the problem we solve. A renter with something on their record applies blind, gets denied, pays another $50 to $100, and repeats. Four denials later they are out $400 and no closer to an address.

We research what each community’s criteria actually say and which third-party programs it accepts, then match renters only where approval is realistic. It costs the renter nothing. Communities pay a referral fee at lease signing, and rent is not increased to cover it.

How we work

Criteria are confirmed with the property or the management company, logged with the date they were confirmed, and re-verified quarterly. That date matters more than most people expect: criteria tighten as a property stabilizes and loosen when occupancy pressure builds, so an answer from six months ago is a guess wearing a suit.

We also work every price tier. A record does not limit a renter to older or cheaper inventory. Approval depends on criteria and accepted programs, not the age or finish of the building. New lease-ups frequently carry the softest criteria in the market, and Class A properties that accept a guarantor will approve applicants an older property declines. Presenting only budget product would misrepresent what is available to you.

Who we serve

Renters across Fort Worth and Tarrant County carrying an eviction filing, a broken lease, rental debt, credit under 580 to 620, a bankruptcy, or a misdemeanor or felony record. Also households that need a 2x or 2.5x income requirement instead of 3x, voucher holders through Fort Worth Housing Solutions, Tarrant County Housing Assistance, or the Arlington Housing Authority, renters on a court deadline, and military and veteran renters at NAS Fort Worth JRB.
