[Back to the top] - Can renttexashillcountry.com help in
negotiating the lease?
No. We are a marketing service. We are neither a Realtor® nor an attorney. If you have found a property you like, and are unsure about the proposed lease agreement, we recommend that you seek the assistance of an attorney.
[Back to the top] - I have a property outside the Hill Country. May I post it?
No - sorry. renttexashillcountry.com is specifically designed for residential rentals and commercial rentals in the Texas Hill Country. By limiting the area (if you can call the Hill Country area "limited"), prospective tenants have a much easier time searching for just what they want.
[Back to the top] - What is the cost of posting my rental property?
Posting your rental property costs just $19.60 per month. There's an additional charge if you want us to come out and take the photos (please visit Post My Property for additional information). Compare that to advertising in a local paper: $30.00 or more per month for 25 words or less - and no photos at that price! This is a great alternative - or addition - to the usual local advertising.
[Back to the top] - Is there a minimum length of time my post has to be active?
Unfortunately, yes - two weeks after the first week, which is FREE - a minimum cost of $9.80. That just helps cover the time involved preparing the post and getting it online. And you actually get 21 days for that $9.80, because the first week is on us. We charge by a 28-day month to keep bookkeeping simpler. After the first paid two weeks (three weeks total), once your property has been rented - or if you just want to stop the post - we'll refund you for all other unused days at the rate of 70¢ per day.
[Back to the top] - Why should I post here, rather than the free listing site?
"Rather than" is up to you. Our thought is that our marketing site is a great, inexpensive primary method to market your rental property. On the most popular free listing site, you may post your information only once every 30 days, and in only one regional/local area, unless you take the time to reword the post so it doesn't appear to be the same. In addition, unless you post it every day - reworded, of course - the listing ages, and unless a prospective tenant keeps scrolling back, your property may not be seen - it's buried below all the text listings from apartment finder services! Plus...check the available "areas" and cities on the free listing site - most of the small towns in the Texas Hill Country aren't even listed! renttexashillcountry.com is "live" 24/7, and can be viewed from anywhere in the world. And once your property is posted, it keeps its position on that page (with only 6 postings per page). And the postings are city/area specific - not posted based on a single word, such as a street name that matches a city or county name!
[Back to the top] - I don't see a payment page. How do I pay for my posting?
We don't require pre-payment*. Once we have posted your property, we will send you an email informing you that the post is active. A link to our payment page will be included in the email. Simply click on that link and your payment will be processed through PayPal in a safe, secure process. *If you have requested that we take the photos, you will receive an email confirming that request. In this case, prepayment of the photo charge is required.
[Back to the top] - I'd rather just send a check. Is that possible?
Absolutely! PayPal is safe and quick, so that's our preferred method of payment. But we'll accept personal checks, cashier's checks, and money orders. That option will be included in the confirmation email, with information (which can also be found here) on where to send the check. Keep in mind that the posting will be removed after the first week if payment isn't received during that time, but we'll put it back once the check is received and clears - usually 4-5 days - if that happens.
