How do I find out more about the lease that Holleman By The Park uses?2026-02-25T14:18:17+00:00
We use a standard Texas Apartment Association (TAA) lease. Please see the TAA website for more information. They typically have a sample lease and a video that explains the parts of the lease. This is a good resource for prospective and current tenants.

Are the units furnished?2015-05-23T08:23:47+00:00

The kitchens include a refrigerator, oven/stove, and garbage disposal. Other than that they are not furnished.

How much does an average electricity bill cost each month? Do these units include washer and dryer?2021-08-27T17:25:29+00:00

Not sure. College Station Utilities does not make that public to us. The policy may have changed since writing this. You can reach them at:

Utility Customer Service
310 Krenek Tap Rd
PO Box 10230
College Station, TX 77840

979-764-3535 , 800-849-6623
979-764-ePAY , 979-764-3791 (fax)

There is a laundry facility right next door to the units. Walking distance.

What bills are covered?2026-02-13T03:31:23+00:00
We provide FREE water, regular pest control, lawn care, basic cable and internet service (equipment not included), and weekly porter service to keep the place looking nice. Residents pay individually metered electricity by the unit. There is no gas (utilities) connected to the units, so no bill there.
979RENT is excited to offer our new tenants cable and hardwired internet.
Please note the following:
You are not obligated to purchase additional “upgradable” services from Optimum.
If you decide to purchase additional services, it should be prorated as your unit includes free cable and hardwired internet (see below).
We recommend doing the installation yourself (follow the instructions below) to save money. Optimum will charge you a fee to come out and do the installation.
The Wifi Modem/Router will be included at no charge to the residents. For information on service and/or upgrades contact Optimum (www.optimum.com)
What type of lease lengths do you offer? 3 month. 6 month. 9 month. 12 month. etc.2026-02-13T03:35:18+00:00
3 month. 6 month. 9 month. 12 month. etc.
We typically offer only annual (12 month) or longer leases. This is especially true for leases beginning in late July or early August. It will be very rare for us to still have availability by that time. We typically only have availability in (late/early) Dec/Jan, May/Jun, and Jul/Aug.
In the rare occasion that we have a unit that is still available after August 1st, we will offer a shorter term lease on it. Preferring at lease a May ending, but going off of the waitlist at that point. So if you’re looking to lease for just the fall, or the fall and spring, you can check our availability then and contact us if there is an opening.
The other exceptions would be for the occasional December/January or May/June ending leases which is usually from a tenant that lived there long-term and was extended as a special case. Also in the case where someone were evicted for any reason. This type of unit availability and lease is rare and would be decided on a case-by-case basis.
We do offer longer than a one year lease for those who would like to lock their rental rate in at the current pricing. Our rents have never gone down from one year to the next, so it could be a good investment.
Do you have any photos/pictures of the units?2015-05-23T08:20:24+00:00

Yes, you can view photos/pictures online here:

https://hollemanbythepark.com/Leasing/Photos

PLEASE NOTE: The units have evolved over the years with slight variations in materials like vanities, tub surrounds, cabinets, counter tops, flooring, and closet doors. All units are painted with the same scheme which is tan walls with white trim/cabinets. There may be a few variations of stained wood, but it is rare. The flooring may vary between carpet in the living room with vinyl tile in the kitchen and bathroom or vinyl wood plank throughout the living room, kitchen, and bathroom. All bedrooms are carpeted. There may be other variations that are not listed here. We do not guarantee specific materials with our leases.

Is this too good to be true?2015-05-23T08:19:34+00:00

I’m addng this because it was a legitimate question that we received by email.

It’s not too good to be true. Yes it is a inexpensive place to live. Yes it’s that close to campus. Yes it’s convenient to just about everything that matters.

If there is a catch, I guess it’s just that it’s not a new property. Unless it was a teardown/rebuild, nothing in this part of town is new construction. Some people have to live in “the biggest, baddest, newest, most hip, all stainless steel appliance, cutting edge PC center, updated work out equipment, latest in tanning machines, largest pool on earth” type housing. So if that’s what you’re looking for, then this is not it.

But it is a nice, clean, safe, inexpensive little community tucked right off the road in the middle of town. So if you think we’re a fit for you, please schedule a viewing using the form below.

Q9. Do you allow pets?2023-03-22T17:12:11+00:00

Yes, we do allow pets.

We have a pet policy of no more than 2 pets and no more than 50 pounds combined weight. The fee is $500 per pet.

The following breeds are restricted: Pit Bull, Staffordshire Terriers, Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Akitas and all other aggressive breeds.

A pet agreement must be turned in to our office with any applicable fees BEFORE the pet(s) is brought on to the property.

Do we offer any specials?2015-05-23T08:18:14+00:00

Our properties are usually 100% occupied, so we rarely run any kind of move-in specials. If we have any, we will be sure to post them across the top of the front page of the site. You won’t have to wonder if we have one or not, if we do, you’ll definitely notice it.

Is there a laundry facility nearby?2015-05-23T08:17:40+00:00

Yes, there is a laundry facility right next door to the units. Walking distance.

Are parking fees included in my rent?2015-05-23T08:16:55+00:00

Yes. There are no additional parking fees.

When is my rent due and where do I pay it?2026-02-19T17:56:01+00:00

Please review your lease or see Payments.

Do you do standard or individual (by the room) leases?2015-05-23T08:15:49+00:00

We do one lease per unit. So if the unit has multiple people living in it, they would be signing the same lease.

Do we have assigned parking spots?2015-05-23T08:15:14+00:00

No, you can park anywhere. The closer to your unit the better. We have over 70 parking spots for 40 units (64 bedrooms), so there is plenty of parking. many of the units only have one resident for two bedrooms, so there are a lot of available spots. The neighbors even use a few of our spots, but we don’t mind as long as our tenants have plenty.

Can you tell me more about the application and leasing process?2026-02-13T03:45:44+00:00
If you are interested in a unit, we can schedule a time for you to view it. If you decide to move forward with leasing, we will need the first and last name, phone number, and email address for each tenant over 18 years old, along with the same information for any co-signers.
You will receive an email and text message with a link to complete the application. Once submitted, you will be able to pay the $35 application fee directly through the AppFolio online portal. As part of the application process, we conduct a credit check, background screening, rental history review, and employment verification. The application will be processed by property management, and you will be notified once screening is completed and approved.
After approval, the lease will be sent to you for electronic signature, and the security deposit will be due at that time. Your prorated first month’s rent and any applicable animal deposits may be paid anytime prior to your move-in date.
Is this a whole apartment or is this more than one room with roommates?2020-03-13T00:19:35+00:00

The pricing is listed as per unit, not per bedroom. We do not lease per bedroom and just stick you pot-luck with a roommate. Our units are only leased whole. If you want a roommate, then you choose that person. Otherwise, you can probably afford the rent on your own anyway so why bother.

Is the monthly rental rate per person or per unit?2015-05-23T08:28:11+00:00

The rate shown is per unit, not per bedroom. Yes, it’s that affordable. Lucky for you we got a good deal on the place.

Is this on a TAMU Shuttle Bus route?2015-05-23T08:10:31+00:00

Yes, the closest location is less than a block away, close to the corner of Holleman and Anderson. It’s on the Anderson St. side of Anderson Park. As of this update, it’s TAMU Shuttle Route 28 – Rudder.

For more information see: http://transport.tamu.edu > Transit > Off-Campus Routes > Route Maps

I preleased earlier, how do I get my key at move-in time?2026-02-13T03:46:50+00:00

You will receive an email with move-in instructions prior to your move-in date. Please contact us if you have not received it.

Are the Tennis Courts at Bee Creek Park free?2015-05-23T08:08:28+00:00

Yes, I believe they are free. For more information please visit the City of College Station website at www.cstx.gov.

When is my rent due?2015-05-23T08:07:57+00:00

Your rent is due on or before the 1st of the month. This is true even when the 1st falls on a Sunday or holiday, so please plan in advance.

Can I have someone else sign the lease for me?2015-05-23T08:07:28+00:00

Sorry, no. The prospective tenant must sign the lease themselves to be a legally binding TAA lease contract. This is a requirement for our leases.

I have rented a unit, what is my new mailing address?2015-05-23T08:06:47+00:00

Your mailing address would be:

<your name>
1402 Holleman Dr. #<unit number>
College Station, TX 77840

How do I request general maintenance and repairs?2026-02-19T17:57:57+00:00

Please use our portal to request and track your maintenance items.

Do you rent the 2 bedroom units by the bedroom?2020-03-13T00:19:36+00:00

In short, no. We don’t lease these by the room. Many of our 2 bedroom units are leased by a single person who just wants an extra bedroom to use as an office.

The more important question may be, do you want to rent by the bedroom? Many prospective resident like the idea of renting by the bedroom until they fully consider the ramifications. If you rent by the bedroom, then you are handing over responsibility of that room, for better and worse. This means that it’s not your money, but it’s also not your decision. So instead of finding a roommate and going in together with someone you mutually agree on, you would be stuck with whoever we decide to put in there. So with lack of responsibility also comes lack of choice. Something to think about before you jump off into that kind of living arrangement.

If you decide that’s the only way to go for you, then we’re not your place. Good luck!

What if I have a question that is not already answered here?2015-05-23T07:59:01+00:00

If you have a question that is not currently answered on our website, please use the contact us area of the website to request more information. We look forward to helping you.

How do I request EMERGENCY maintenance?2026-02-13T03:50:07+00:00

For EMERGENCY items (like security issues or running water), please call (979) 333-7368 and follow the instructions.
