Frequently Ask Question
Below are the steps involved to secure the property:
1. Each tenant will need to submit an online application via the link on the main page of this website and Venmo their $50 application fee to @rentmaroon or drop off a $50 money order payable to Maroon and White Mgmt at our office. Application fees are non-refundable.
2. Each tenant will need to obtain the name and email address of their guarantor.
3. Tenants will need to find a time that they can bring the security deposit to the Maroon and White Management office. We accept checks or money orders. At this meeting we will write the lease and the tenants will submit their deposit and guarantor information and sign paperwork that will hold the unit for 24 hours while the tenants review and sign the lease and the guarantors submit the guarantor form online electronically. If you change your mind within the 24 hours, the lease will be cancelled and the deposit will be refunded. A sample lease is located on the front page of this website for your review.
We base our rental qualifications strictly on credit history. We do not use income or rental history as a qualification, but we reserve the right to get a rental verification from your current landlord. We require above average credit history for the tenant which we define as at least 3 lines of active credit dating back at least 5 years (student loans excluded), nothing in collections and no negative credit in the last 3 years. We do not take applicants with a repossession, charge off or bankruptcy in the last 7 years. We do not have a credit score minimum. If the tenant has poor credit history which includes but not limited to accounts in collections, past due accounts, money owed to other complexes, etc. then that tenant would not qualify. We will allow a guarantor with above average credit history ONLY if tenant does not have any credit history, a guarantor will not be accepted for prospective tenants with poor credit, as stated above. We allow 1 person per bedroom for all of our units.

It is the policy of Maroon and White Property Management to provide reasonable accommodations for emotional support animals with appropriate documentation of the need for the accommodation.
We will be happy to review your request for an emotional support animal. In order to be considered, the following procedures must be met:
– Resident must make a written request for said ESA.
– Resident shall provide documentation from a health care provider within the state of Texas stating the need for the assistance animal if the need is not apparent. The documentation must have the contact information, license number and a wet signature from the health care provider. Such documentation should confirm that the resident meets the definition of disabled and that there is a nexus between the disability and the need for the animal. Per HUD guidance, Internet certificates are no longer sufficient. Written proof must come from legitimate, licensed healthcare providers who have personal knowledge of the tenant’s medical condition
– Resident will provide all information on the animal including vet records and photograph.
– No fees or deposits will be charged with regard to the assistance animal.
– Resident requesting ESA must get approval from all roommates and guarantors on the lease. Each tenant and guarantor must email our office with their approval of the animal and agreement that they will sign paperwork being financially responsible for any damage the animal causes
– Resident will be required to comply with all animal rules of the community/unit.
– All information provided will be verified when reviewing the request for reasonable accommodation. Failure to provide sufficient information may be grounds for denial.
– All requests will be reviewed in accordance with state and federal fair housing laws.
