A landlord leasing residential property requires a duly filled Texas Rental Application Form for verification of credibility and eligibility. This four-page form consists of two parts. The first part of the form requires various inputs from the applicant about the personal, financial, employment, and residential information. The second part of the form is an authorization released by the applicant to the landlord. The applicant must complete both parts of the application form. In addition, the landlord requires that each proposed occupant and/or co-applicant of age 18 years or more fill a separate application form. The applicant requires remitting non-refundable application processing fee to the landlord. This application form is suitable for applying for a lease of an apartment or similar residential property in Texas State.
