About Nomad

Nomad makes it easy to rent your Houston long-term property and provides financial certainty with guaranteed rent and $500k in property protection. With flexible marketing services, you can choose how involved you want to be in marketing the property and finding tenants. Plus, all owners get access to the owner’s portal where you can track earnings, manage maintenance requests and more!

Renting in Houston

Houston has more renters than owners. About 58% of occupied homes are rented, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's 2020–2024 American Community Survey, spread across more than a million housing units. A rental competes with a lot of inventory here, which is why pricing and the quality of the listing carry so much weight. The city paperwork is light for a house. Houston doesn't require a single-family rental to be registered, licensed or inspected; its registration and inspection rules start at buildings with three or more units. Texas state rules on deposits and late fees still apply.

“As a first-time landlord, I'm so grateful that a friend of mine (who manages multiple properties with Nomad) referred me to Nomad. The Nomad team has done an absolutely outstanding job guiding me through the entire process. … They also proactively informed me about the upcoming steps, so oftentimes I didn't even have to ask questions. Thanks to the Nomad team's guidance, my property got rented out 18 days faster than the average comparable home!”
