    Why TakeOver exists

    There had to be a better way.

    We spent five months on Facebook trying to hand off our son's lease. The system was luck. TakeOver is what we wished existed that first night.

    What we learned the hard way

    Two numbers and we will show you what TakeOver can save you.

    • Free
    • No card
    • Nothing posted yet

    Two questions. We work out what is still on your lease against what a TakeOver costs.

    Whichever side you are on, the lease stays official.

    TakeOver never touches the lease. Applications, credit checks and the final signature stay with the property, the way it already works. We never handle your rent or your deposit.

    Handing a lease off

    We surface verified students already searching for your dates and your budget. Your leasing office approves the takeover like any other application.

    Taking a lease over

    Every listing is a real lease another student needs to leave. You apply with the property and sign with them, never with a stranger.

    How approval works

    The exhale, in their words

    $8,400rent she stopped paying
    The leasing office told us to try Facebook. TakeOver had two verified students interested inside a week, and I could see every message.
    Denise R.Parent and cosigner, UNT
    11 daysfrom posting to approval
    I needed out by January and figured I would eat the rent. Posted on a Tuesday, matched by Friday, approved the next week.
    Marcus T.Junior, spring internship in Dallas
    $210under market, seven months
    Every complex wanted a full year lease starting in August. I needed January through July. TakeOver was the only place that inventory existed.
    Ana L.Transfer, arrived midyear
    $3,150of spring rent she never owed
    I finished my degree a semester early. My replacement moved in three weeks after I posted.
    Priya S.Senior, graduated in December
    6 daysfrom first message to signed
    We matched with a transfer student who toured on Saturday and applied Monday. The leasing office handled the rest.

    Posting was free, so I posted the same night we decided. I only paid once two verified students had already replied.
