WHAT IS AN EVICTION?

An eviction is a heartbreaking consequence of a leaseholder breaking one or more of the leasing terms and not correcting the situation. Ultimately, an eviction means to legally remove a tenant from the apartment or rental property. The most common eviction is initiated when a leaseholder does not pay their rent on time. When a renter is late with their rent payment, they will be given an eviction notice. The eviction notice states when the rent owed must be paid to avoid an official eviction. Additionally, an eviction can be initiated if a renter has violated another leasing term and fails to rectify the situation. If you are given an eviction notice, you can also consult with an eviction lawyer to make sure your rights will not be violated. A landlord cannot force you out of the apartment or change the locks. An eviction must be handled by a Texas Justice of Peace.

HOW DO EVICTIONS EFFECT YOU?

Evictions can have lasting effects on you including emotional and financial. Evictions can leave you feeling down and hopeless. Evictions will have horrendous effects on your credit and make it difficult to find new housing. Evictions are public records they stay on your credit for up to 7 years. After an eviction, you may have to move with family, friends or a shelter. ​

HOW CAN SECOND CHANCE APARTMENTS HELP WITH EVICTIONS?

Second Chance Apartment, helps individuals with Bad Credit, Bankruptcy, Broken leases, Evictions, and felonies locate quality housing. We even assist first-time renters as well.

  • Telephone Scripts for calling apartments
  • Advice on getting the best deal and approval

THE PROCESS

When there is an apartment you are interested in on our free pre-screened apartment list, the property management company will have you fill out a rental application. Once you fill out the application, your credit will be checked. Also, the rental history will be checked to see if there is an eviction.

When there is unsatisfactory credit or rental history like an eviction found, the landlord may decline the application to rent an apartment. However, with our relationships and resources, we may be able to get you approved for an eviction friendly apartment. Once approved for an apartment, most apartments will require a signed lease. It is important the lease is read fully and understood before signing it. When you sign a lease agreement, make sure you fully understand the lease before signing it. If there is something you are worried about, it is best to communicate with the property management company before signing the lease.
