What is an individual lease?

An individual lease is a per-bed lease. You sign a lease for a bed space in the apartment and share common areas with roommates. This means you are only responsible for your own installments. This allows you to live with roommates without having to worry about whether they’re going to pay on time.

What is a guarantor? Is a guarantor required?

A guarantor is a co-signer for your lease agreement. Because students often don’t have an income, having a guarantor allows them to qualify you for a lease based on your guarantor’s income.

You will list the name and email of your guarantor during the application process, and your guarantor will receive an email to fill out their portion of the application. Contact the Rambler team for more information on whether or not you will need a guarantor.

In order for a guarantor to qualify, they must meet the following qualifications:

Must earn 3x the monthly installment 

Must not have filed for bankruptcy in the past seven years

Must have a credit score of 600 

They require all residents at Rambler to guarantee their lease in one of the following three ways:

Sign with a guarantor that meets the qualifications above

Prepay two rent installments, which are applied to the last two months of your lease term

Utilize the LEAP program offered by Rambler

If you do not provide someone to act as a guarantor on your behalf, or you cannot prepay two installments, you will be enrolled into the LEAP program by our leasing team. LEAP acts as your guarantor for a monthly fee of $70, which is added to your rent payment. Contact the Rambler team for additional information.

If I'm an international student, do I need a guarantor? What documentation do I need to provide?

For applicants who do not have a credit history in the US and/or a guarantor, Rambler will accept a prepayment of two installments in lieu of credit/guarantor requirements. Prepaid installments are applied to the last two months of your lease term. Additionally, applicants who are citizens of another country must provide at least two of the following: 1) a passport; 2) the INS document that entitles the applicant to be in the United States; 3) proof of employment in the United States; 4) an I-20 verifying student status; and/or 5) proof of enrollment.

Why do you need my Social Security number?

They need your Social Security number in order to run standard credit and criminal background checks. Rambler is using software from Entrata to keep your personal information secure. All of your data, including your name, email, birth date, and Social Security number, are secured using encryption techniques that banks use to keep your financial information private. Data is transferred via an SSL/TLS connection using 2048-bit encryption between your computer and Entrata’s servers.

Is renter’s insurance required? Do you provide renter’s insurance?

You will be automatically enrolled in Rambler’s liability waiver program and charged a fee of $15/month, which only protects Rambler’s property. To protect your personal property, you can opt out by providing proof of third-party renter’s insurance with a minimum of $100,000 of liability coverage.

What is the average monthly cost of utilities?

At Rambler, utilities are projected to range from around $15 to $40 per person, per month on average. This will vary depending on floorplan type, usage and other factors. This range is an estimate – costs may fall outside of this range.

What happens on a tour?

Tours start in the Rambler leasing office, located on the first floor of the property. You’ll enter Rambler through the main doors on Nueces Street, and be greeted by one of their leasing team members who will take you through the building, discuss your housing needs and floorplan options, and answer any questions! How do I sign a lease at Rambler if I’m under 18? If you’re under 18, you can still live at Rambler Austin! You will need to have a parent or guarantor who is over 18 go through the application and leasing process with you. You will not be able to apply using the Apply Now link on their website, but your parent or guarantor can start the application as they will be the primary applicant on the lease agreement. Please contact our leasing office for more information and to get started with the leasing process.

Is on-site parking available? How much is parking?

Rambler offers access to their on-site parking garage at an additional monthly cost. They offer both standard and tandem parking. Contact them for more info.

What is the difference between standard and tandem parking?

Standard parking consists of individual parking spaces arranged side by side, allowing each vehicle to enter and exit its spot independently. Tandem parking refers to spaces where two vehicles park in a single file, one behind the other, requiring the car in the front to move out for the others behind it to leave. While more cost-effective, it requires some coordination. With tandem parking, you can choose who you share the space with if you have someone in mind, like a roommate, to make for easier coordination!

Is guest parking available?

There is not parking available onsite for guests or visitors. Guests can park on the street nearby or in the San Antonio Garage.

Does Rambler have electric vehicle chargers?

Rambler does not have any electric vehicle chargers.

What is S.M.A.R.T. Housing?

S.M.A.R.T. Housing, a program created by the City of Austin, aims to aid students who are receiving need-based financial aid, paying for school via student loans, or working to pay for school and living expenses independently.

Does Rambler offer S.M.A.R.T. Housing?

Yes, Rambler does offer SMART Housing by the bed in our unit, The Marfa. This unit has four bedrooms and two bathrooms and will be offered at a rate in line with city guidelines.

Do you offer roommate matching if I don’t have enough people to fill my apartment?

Additionally, each unit has electronic key access to all front doors and traditional key access to individual bedroom doors.
