Wrong Tenant. Real Damage.
One Bad Tenant Costs a San Antonio Landlord $5,000–$15,000.
A bad placement drains months of rent, legal fees, and repairs before it's resolved — and vacancy runs about $107 a day while you wait. The most reliable safeguard is screening the wrong tenant out before they ever get the keys. That's the entire point of the Perfect 10ant System™.
Stops paying
3-day notice, then weeks through the JP court — lost rent the whole way.
Trashes the property
Holes, ruined appliances, $5K–$15K in repairs. We call previous landlords, not just pull credit.
Breaks the lease
One missed Texas disclosure and you lose in court. Every lease we draft is Texas Property Code compliant.
Sits vacant
Every empty day costs you. Our 21-day placement guarantee keeps the meter from running.

Built for the San Antonio Tenant Market
We Know Where San Antonio's Best Tenants Come From
San Antonio's renter base is anchored by some of the most stable employers in the country — military, healthcare, and Fortune 500 headquarters. We match your property to the right tenant catchment when we list, which is how placements fill quickly and stay filled.
Employer anchors behind our applicant pool
San Antonio is "Military City USA," anchored by Joint Base San Antonio (Fort Sam Houston, Lackland, and Randolph) — one of the largest military concentrations in the country. Add the South Texas Medical Center, Fortune 500 headquarters like USAA and Valero, H-E-B, and Toyota's South Side manufacturing plant, and you have a deep, creditworthy renter base. We screen for military status and SCRA risk up front so PCS turnover doesn't catch you off guard.
Submarkets we price & place across
Rents in Boerne don't move like rents on the South Side. We price to the submarket, not a regional average.
Four counties: Bexar, Comal, Guadalupe, Kendall.
Market context sources: U.S. Census ACS, Joint Base San Antonio public information, employer public announcements, and Flat Fee Landlord internal placement data.
Tenant Placement in San Antonio
What San Antonio Landlords Should Know Before They List
San Antonio is one of the steadiest rental markets in the country — but for owners, the variable that matters most is who you put in the property. A military, healthcare, and Fortune 500 economy keeps a reliable stream of creditworthy renters moving through every submarket, from Joint Base San Antonio and the South Texas Medical Center to the USAA and Valero corridors and the growing I-35 suburbs. The job isn't finding applicants. It's separating the tenant who pays and stays from the one who quietly costs you $5,000–$15,000.
That separation is the entire value of placement done right — and it's why we lead with screening, not speed. Every applicant runs the full 10-point Perfect 10ant System™ before anyone is approved, which is how we hold an eviction rate under 1% across 2,000+ placements since 2012.
Military City means SCRA
Active-duty tenants can terminate a lease early under the federal Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) when they receive qualifying PCS or deployment orders. It's predictable, not catastrophic — we screen for military status up front, plan for turnover, and re-place under the tenant assurance if it happens to a tenant we placed.
Texas rules cut both ways
No rent control and a relatively fast eviction timeline are real advantages — but only if the lease is right. The Texas Property Code sets specific rules on deposit returns, required disclosures, and notice periods, and a single missed disclosure can lose a case you'd otherwise win. Every lease we prepare is built to the Code.
San Antonio isn't one market
A family near Randolph behaves nothing like a physician near the Medical Center or a Hill Country renter in Boerne. School districts, base proximity, commute corridors, and HOA rules all shape who applies and how long they stay — so we price, market, and screen to the specific submarket.
The Flat-Fee Philosophy
Your Rent Shouldn't Dictate Your Management Fee.
Percentage-based managers earn more every time your rent goes up. We don't.
A flat monthly fee keeps our incentives aligned with yours — we win by placing a tenant who stays and pays, not by taking a bigger slice as the market rises. Tenant placement is part of the offer, not a line we upsell.

San Antonio Tenant Placement FAQ
Questions San Antonio Landlords Ask Before They List
How does tenant placement work in San Antonio?
We price your home with local comps, market it on the SABOR MLS (San Antonio Board of REALTORS®) and 100+ rental sites, run every applicant through the Perfect 10ant System™ (10-point screening), prepare a Texas-compliant lease, and coordinate move-in. The placement fee is one month's rent plus a one-time listing & activation fee, billed once per placement — no percentage of rent. Placement is available standalone or paired with flat-fee management.
How do you handle military tenants and SCRA lease breaks?
San Antonio is Military City USA, so we screen for military status up front and account for the federal Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA), which lets active-duty members terminate a lease early on qualifying PCS or deployment orders. If a tenant we placed terminates under SCRA within the assurance window, we re-place a new tenant at no additional placement fee under the tenant assurance.
How fast will you place a tenant?
Most San Antonio-area properties lease in 7–21 days. The 21-day placement guarantee waives your first two months of management fees if there's no qualified application within 21 days of going live.
Can I hire you for placement only?
Yes. Tenant placement is available standalone. Many owners use placement only and self-manage afterward; others add flat-fee management later. If you've already found your own applicant, we also offer screening and Texas-compliant lease preparation on their own.
Why does screening matter so much in Texas?
Texas has no rent control and a relatively fast eviction timeline, but one bad tenant still costs $5,000–$15,000 once lost rent, legal fees, and repairs add up — and vacancy runs about $107 a day. Screening up front is the most reliable safeguard available.
What if the tenant you place leaves early?
Every placement is backed by a 9–12 month tenant assurance (bundle benefit). If the tenant we placed leaves within the window, we place a new tenant at no additional placement fee, and eviction coordination is included on Preferred + Concierge for tenants we placed (court costs billed at cost).
Which San Antonio-area cities do you place tenants in?
Across four counties: Bexar (San Antonio, Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, Helotes, Converse, Live Oak, Universal City), Comal (New Braunfels, Garden Ridge, Bulverde, Canyon Lake), Guadalupe (Schertz, Cibolo), and Kendall (Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch).
