Home to Rent
It's a little premature for me and my husband, but our lease is up on our apartment in Dallas in September and we want to rent a house out of the city. We have 3 dogs and 1 child so an apartment is proving to be more of a hassel than a help. I've had terrible luck finding a home we can afford to rent and don't really know where to look...other than Craigslist which I don't like using. We aren't approved for any kind of purchases because both of our credit scores are too low. As far as a price range we'd like to keep as close to $700/ month as possible. Does anyone know where I could look to find a good neighborhood to rent a home? We are thinking Garland/ Rockwall/ Richardson area. TIA!

Hi there!
In this market you may want to consider a purchase. We have a home for sale in Grand Prairie. Check out the link here for pictures and pricing:

(you may have to copy and paste it in your browser). You will get $8000 cash tax credit if you have contract by April 30. Worth considering! Good luck to you!

There are a few listed on ebby.com under "leasing" at the top. Another idea would be to contact a realtor. My only other suggestion would be to just go out driving around and check out the neighborhoods.

try looking on realtor.com and hotpads.com- they both have area searches and max amounts for rent- craigslist is okay but also crowded with bad info... so you really have to search.
As far as nieghborhoods- not sure what your budget is, but farmers branch/north dallas, carrollton, irving, lewisville... if you need any help just send me a message with your max and where you are looking and how many bedrooms- we are moving the end of this month and i just had to do all of this so i understand the hassle :)
good luck !

Good morning, I'm a realtor and would be happy to assist you in finding a home to rent. Anything that would be available in September is not on the market now, but later into the year, I'd be happy to email you what is available,
and take you to see anything which interests you.

It would help if we knew what your rent budget was. We could steer you to many nice neighborhoods, but it's pointless if you can't afford them.
