Can I have a pet in my condo, apartment or rental home?

San Antonio is a very pet friendly city, with the majority of renters being pet owners. Most apartments and rental homes allow pets, however there may be restrictions on breed and size, as well as additional fees or deposits. Service animals are often exempt from many of these rules, as they are not considered pets.

Many of these rental properties will also have microwaves, washing machines and dryers. Most San Antonio apartment rentals will have electric appliances, while some homes and condos offer electric and gas.

Who covers the cost of damages or stolen items in a rental home or apartment?

Many apartments and rental homes will require you to have renter’s insurance before moving in to your new residence. Renters are generally responsible to pay for damages or stolen items.

Can I break my apartment or rental lease?

Most rental and lease agreements will require some type of penalty for breaking a lease early. Sometimes this can be a flat fee or they may require you to keep paying rent until they find a new tenant. Be sure to understand the terms of your lease before signing and making a commitment.

Can I sublet my apartment, condo or rental home?

Subletting your San Antonio rental home or apartment can be a good way to avoid breaking your lease. There are a lot of legal pitfalls that come along with subletting and many lease agreements forbid subletting. In Texas, you must obtain written permission from your landlord to sublet. If you are looking to sublet, be sure to consult an expert , to ensure that you are following the law and your lease agreement.
