If you will be renewing your lease, please pay special attention to timelines. We will work with you to ensure we have your renewal ready prior to your current lease expiration date but you do need to respond in a timely manner.

If you have an existing ESA, you must renew your profile with Petscreening.com annually in order for your furry friend to remain an ESA.

If you get any correspondence from petscreening.com please make sure to follow through with it. If you are considering a new animal then you must go through the process before the animal can be brought into the home.

The decision to hire a property manager to oversee your real estate investment in the Austin, Texas area can make great difference in many ways over the duration of your ownership. 

Over time, a property manager will save owners time, money and can help prolong the life of their property. 

Below we highlight the benefits of using a property management company in Austin, Texas!

Accurately Pricing Your Rental Home

Everyone wants top dollar for their merchandise - landlords are no different. It’s typical for us to speak with owners who value their rental home immensely - as they should - but can also fail to see how a tenant won’t want to rent a 1 bedroom home for $3,000 a month.. 

Working with a property manager can get you off on the right foot from the beginning. Price your rent amount too high and your property could sit for months on the market, price it too low and you could miss out on serious money over the course of a year.

Service Dogs

We’re sure you’re wondering why this is a topic in our post.  This isn’t related to tenants having service or support animals, rather this is a mention for a local non-profit here in Austin that we really like!  They have an upcoming fundraising campaign that Stone Oak and our sister brokerage, Central Metro Realty, will be participating in through a matching fund.

Back to School Sales Tax Holiday

It’s almost time for schools to reopen for the fall semester. Texas offers a few sales tax holidays, and the next one is coming up August 5-7, 2022.  This can help you save money on things like school supplies and clothing.  View this link for details of the qualifying items and other info for the exemption available on purchases made during those days.  If you have any questions about this contact the Comptroller’s office directly.

Summer Heat

It’s hot out there as we all know, and we’re setting records.  Since mid-May we’ve had 45+ days of triple digit heat as of the writing of this post. That likely translates to AC issues when it comes to our role with you as a tenant.  ...

Here is a recent article in the context of home builders being unable to complete projects.
