It’s your property, and yes you can restrict pets, however, nationwide the percentage of residents with pets is very high, and in “pet-friendly” Central Texas, it can run as high as 80% of all residents. Being open to pets does make your property available to more potential renters. Statistics have shown residents with pets have a longer residency than those that do not have pets. Additional deposits, weight and breed restrictions do apply. To protect your asset and to enlarge the pool of prospective residents which directly benefits you, PURE will guarantee that any damage caused by a pet we approve will be covered up to $1,000. However, if you feel very strongly about this issue, we will agree not to advertise or show your property to anyone with a pet. Please be aware that it is not reasonable or possible to monitor resident pet restrictions on a daily basis. Additionally, pet restrictions per Fair Housing Guidelines do not apply with ESA or Support animals.
