Rental Season Updates

Hello! 

 

And thanks for considering Buckeye Real Estate for your housing needs in the 2026-2027 lease term. Fall rents will be set and updated on our website beginning Monday, September 8th. Our current residents lease agreements are just starting in August and they will be given a renewal period before we begin renting. We can begin showing our units on Wednesday, October 8th via walk in showings ONLY.  We can begin scheduling tours for October 9th two days before.  This letter is designed to answer the most asked questions that we hear before rental season begins… 



How can I sign a lease without waiting until October 8th ?


Our office offers an alternative to waiting until rental season; and that is the Renewal Waiver Form. Basically, if you view a Buckeye Real Estate home on your own with the current residents, and they don’t plan to renew, they are able to ‘waive’ their renewal rights and allow you to sign a lease earlier than October 8th . 

 

Renewal Waiver Forms will be available in our office on September 12th and will explain further how the rental would work. This is a NEW lease that you would sign, the form simply tells us that the current residents don’t wish to renew and it’s okay with them if we sign their unit to someone else. You should be prepared to pay the first month’s rent and sign a lease with all your fall roommates when you bring the completed form back to our office. See our full leasing procedure on our website: The Lease Procedure.

 


What is the first day of rental season like at Buckeye Real Estate?


Our FIRST OFFICIAL DAY of rental season begins Tuesday, October 8th . Many prospective residents have started looking for apartment-homes by now and are shopping on our website to narrow down their housing options and/or walking around the campus area checking out places on their own. The first day of rental season is always busy! 

 

There are prospective residents who opt not to use a Renewal Waiver Form and instead choose to wait in line on the first day of rental season in order to rent their desired apartment. While it’s true that we begin showing on October 8th, keep in mind that there are only so many tours we are able to take and our showings have a tendency to book up early. So, many residents will view a unit on their own (or use available Matterport 3D tours) to rent it the first week of rental season, rather than waiting for an appointment to tour with us. Keep in mind that all units are rented on a first come, first serve basis. It is not necessary to make an appointment to rent the unit, you can rent any unit that you have viewed, whether through us or on your own.

 

At this time, the easiest thing to do would be to search online to narrow down properties that might interest you. Our website is updated DAILY, so if a unit is on the site, it has not yet been signed for fall of 2026 yet. Feel free to stop by our office with your list of properties during normal business hours. That way, a leasing staff member can discuss your housing options in person and explain the rental procedure to you.



No waiting on these great properties for 2026!!
