Terms of Service
Last updated: October 5, 2026
1. Agreement
By using this website or asking Houston Apartment Locators to run an apartment search, you agree to these terms. We're licensed Texas real estate agents working under Spirit Real Estate Group, TREC License #562021, with Bryan Bjerke as Designated Broker.
2. What we do
We provide free apartment locating services across Houston and the Harris County metro:
- 2nd Chance Leasing
- Sight Unseen / Out of State Relocation
- Corporate Relocation
- Pet-Friendly Apartments
- Luxury & High-Rise Apartments
- Moving Concierge & Electricity Setup
- Lofts & Mid-Rise Apartments
Every search includes communities matched to your criteria, advice on specials, tour scheduling, and application support through to a decision.
3. Cost
Our service is free to you. There is no retainer, hourly rate, or markup. The apartment community pays us a referral fee after you sign a lease. Your rent is identical whether you use us or walk in on your own. To be paid we must be registered as your referral source with the community. That normally means naming us on the guest card or the application.
4. What we do not guarantee
- Availability. We talk with communities every day and keep notes on their specials and criteria. We don't check availability before a unit goes on your list. Confirm with the property when you call. If a unit is gone, tell us and we'll send replacements. We will never tell you a unit is guaranteed available.
- Approval. We do not guarantee that any property will approve you. We share what we've learned about a community's screening criteria before you spend an application fee. Approval decisions belong to the property.
- Pricing. Any rent, special, or fee figures we share are based on what the property advertised at the time. They are not price quotes. Communities set their own rates and can change them at any time.
5. Information you give us
Please give us accurate information about your budget, timeline, and any rental, credit, or background history relevant to screening. Inaccurate information leads to wasted application fees, which is the exact outcome the service exists to prevent.
6. Third-party programs and services
We explain guarantor products, deposit alternatives, insurance-backed programs, retail electricity plans, and renters insurance so you can compare them. We don't underwrite or administer any of them. Your agreement for any such product is with that provider, on their terms.
7. Fair Housing
We comply with the federal Fair Housing Act and Texas fair housing law. Price, commute, and inventory are what we present. We do not characterize any area's safety, demographics, or composition, and we will not steer you to or away from an area.
8. Website content
Market figures on this site carry a source and a date. Markets change; a figure that was accurate on its stated date may not be accurate later. Nothing here is legal, tax, or financial advice.
9. Intellectual property
Text, layout, and graphics on this site belong to Houston Apartment Locators and are protected by copyright.
10. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages from your use of the site or the service. Nothing in these terms limits any liability that can't be limited under Texas law, including under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
11. Changes
We may update these terms. Changes take effect when posted, and the date at the top will change.
