## Background

List what a renter must supply for approval. (Renter on parole wants a checklist for officer approval.)

## What matters most

-   **Address verification and lease details.** Understanding this piece typically has the largest single effect on approval odds.
-   **Supervisor approval and documentation.** Two identical applicants can get different answers at different properties for this reason.
-   **What documentation strengthens an application.** Preparation cuts down on repeated applications and burned fees.

## Honest expectations

We are direct with renters about what this record type does and does not open. Where a situation is a near-universal hard stop, we say so up front rather than collect an application fee. Where a property will genuinely review, we identify it so you spend your one application well.

## What to do next

1.  Pull your own screening report so you know what a landlord will see. See 
    
    how to check your own background before you apply
    
    [/guide/how-to-check-your-own-background-before-you-apply/ →](/guide/how-to-check-your-own-background-before-you-apply/)
    
    .
2.  Line up certified dispositions from the county clerk and any completion documentation.
3.  Have income verification ready — most Texas apartments want gross monthly income at 3x rent.
4.  Get a pre-screened shortlist before you apply blind.
