The answer is… kind of…
Rent DOES include:
- Expanded Cable with ShowTime
- High-speed internet
- Interior and exterior maintenance
- Full Service lawn care
Here’s what you and your roommates will be responsible for on your own:
- Electricity
- Water
- Trash services
Rent is due on the 1st of each month, with a grace period of 2 days. So let’s say you decide to pay on the 4th of the month–a late fee of $50 will be charged to your account. After that, it’s an additional $10 fee for each day that the balance remains on your account until the outstanding balance (including fees) is paid in full.
Rent can be paid:
-
ONLINE via electronic check, credit card, or debit card: Your tenant portal will allow you to make rent payments with an e-check (ACH) for free, or with a credit/debit card for an additional convenience fee. It’s a great idea for everyone (including yourself) to go ahead and set up auto-payments to avoid any late fees. (Life hack: Pay this way!)
-
In person: You are more than welcome to drop off a check or money order made out to “The Barracks” or “The Barracks Management” at the front desk in our leasing office. For drop offs after normal hours, feel free to use the drop box located at the front door. We do NOT accept cash because we are not a flea market.
You have two options when it comes to security deposits at The Barracks. You can either pay a security deposit of 1.5x your rent OR register with Obligo as a security deposit alternative.
Obligo charges a service fee of 12.5% of your security deposit annually. When you move out, you are responsible for returning the unit to the same condition you received it. If any painting, cleaning, or repair outside of normal wear and tear is still necessary after you move out, Obligo will pay these charges on your behalf to The Barracks and then collect the balance from you.
It operates EXACTLY how a security deposit would… you just don’t have to put all the cash down up front.
We love animals! Here’s a video of a bulldog puppy rolling down a hill to prove it.
Since animals can sometimes be, well, animals, we require you to create a PetScreening account and pay monthly pet rent.
Want to leave us so soon? Traditionally, we exclusively offer 12-month leases that run from August 1st through July 19th of the following year. However, there are some rare circumstances where 6-month leases come available. Feel free to contact our leasing office to see what might currently be available.
The lovely United States Postal Service owns and maintains all mailboxes located here at The Barracks. In order to get your mailbox key, take a copy of your lease to the Bryan Post Office (located at 2121 E William J Bryan Pkwy in Bryan) and a set of keys will be issued to you for a fee. Much like everywhere else, FedEx and UPS packages will be shipped straight to your front door.
You don’t! We’ve already taken care of it. We manage utilities in-house, so you will not be responsible for paying any fees associated with setting up utilities. Instead, we will receive all your utility bills and charge your resident portal with an equal share of your home’s monthly utility usage.
We’ve got you! We’ve mapped out the dimensions for the following floor plans:
Yes! We use roommate matching to match groups and individuals so everyone can live in their desired floor plan.
If needed, we will send you a roommate matching form so we can learn what you’re looking for in a roommate. We’ll use these preferences to match you with the best person we can find.
It is our goal that everyone feels comfortable in their home. If you think you will feel uncomfortable living with someone new, we advise you to not utilize this service, as there is no guarantee that your new roommate(s) will meet all of your preferences.
Please keep your pets inside and make sure your yard is accessible until 4pm on the day it is being mowed.
