What You Get
- ✓Which properties review violent records
- ✓How offense age changes your options
- ✓Honest hard-stop disclosure up front
- ✓Application fee rebated on approval
Violent offenses face the narrowest set of reviewing properties, and recency is the key variable — older records open more options than recent ones. We are honest about hard stops: pending violent felony charges and registry status are near-universal declines, and we say so immediately rather than collecting an application fee. For older offenses, we know which communities run genuine individualized review.
What the honest picture looks like
- Older simple-assault or misdemeanor assault. Often clears vacancy-motivated properties in every metro, especially with any documented intervention.
- Older felony assault (third-degree, aggravated with intervening years). Narrower, but a real set of Class B and vacancy-motivated properties will review case-by-case.
- Recent violent felony conviction. Very narrow. Some properties still review, but expect a small shortlist.
- Pending violent felony charges. Near-universal decline. We say so up front.
- Registry status. Near-universal decline in Texas.
Related record types
- Felony convictions — the general felony framework.
- Weapons offenses — often paired with violent charges.
- Domestic violence convictions — family-violence findings screen differently.
- Pending charges — how an open case reports.

Why Us for This Record
Honest hard-stop disclosure
Pending violent felony charges and registry status are near-universal declines. We say so before you spend on any application.
Deep read on older records
Offense age is the key variable. An older simple-assault conviction with completed intervention opens many properties an automated screener would flag.

- !Active pending violent felony charges (near-universal decline)

TESTIMONIALS
What Renters Say
Real feedback from Texas renters we've helped. First-initial only to protect privacy.
"I had a felony from seven years ago and every application came back denied. They sent me a shortlist of four properties that actually review case-by-case. I got approved at the second one."
"They were honest with me about which properties would even look at my record. No false hope, no runaround. That saved me from wasting more application fees."
"I was on a parole deadline and didn't know where to start. They moved fast and found a place my officer approved before the deadline. The fee rebate on approval was real."
"I didn't realize my deferred adjudication still showed on screening reports. They explained it plainly and matched me to a community that treated it correctly."

Questions About This Record Type
Can anyone with a violent felony rent in Texas?
Yes, but the set of properties that will review is narrower than for nonviolent felonies. Recency is the key variable. Older offenses open more properties than recent ones. Some situations — active pending violent felony charges, registry status — are near-universal declines.
Does completing a batterer intervention program or anger management help?
At properties that run individualized review, yes. Documented completion signals a closed chapter to a human reviewer. Automated screening does not read it.
What about a Class A misdemeanor assault?
Misdemeanor assault clears more properties than felony assault, especially with age. See [misdemeanor history](/misdemeanor-history/) for the general misdemeanor screening pattern.
What about family-violence findings?
An 'affirmative finding of family violence' under Texas Family Code screens as a distinct category — see [domestic violence convictions](/domestic-violence-convictions/) for that pathway.
