However, a FE&D due to property damage by the resident will not be accepted under any circumstances. No history of any damage to the residence, or an outstanding balance due to a previous landlord. If you have no prior rental history then you must have a qualified cosigner - the cosigner must be a resident of Texas, have a good credit history and be willing to sign the lease.

The Evans Group offers an excellent program to build your credit by doing something that you already do, paying your rent on time.  

You will be required to sign a Mutual Non-Disparagement Clause with your lease.  This Clause protects yourself and The Evans Group from disparaging comments, verbally or in writing that could be injurious to business, reputation, property or disparaging comments which are false.  

Once you have been notified of your approval you will receive an email notifying you of approval. The lease will start within 10 days of lease application.  A lease will be sent out for the agreed-upon move-in date through Docusign for you to review and sign online. You will have 24 hours to sign the lease once it has been typed. After the lease has been signed we will take your property off the market. Once all fees and prorated rent have been paid we will give you the lockbox combination on the morning of your move-in for the property to obtain your keys. 

The applicant is strongly encouraged to view the property prior to signing any lease. Landlord makes no express or implied warranties as to the Property's condition. Should the Applicant and Landlord enter into a lease, the Applicant can request repairs or treatments 
 

If any leaseholders have not physically seen the property prior to a lease being signed, a “Sight Unseen Addendum” will be required to be signed by all leaseholders.
