Ross's picks: the best deals in Onion Creek & Southpark Meadows right now

The strongest value in each building class, ranked by what a home really costs per square foot each month. A firm special counts, divided across the lease it requires, or across a year when it names no lease. An "up to" offer doesn't, since not every home gets it. We check prices daily, so these picks move when the pricing does.

Program homes below: check the income caps first

The communities in these lists lease program homes by household income. Your gross household income must fall UNDER the cap for your household size and the home's tier (HUD 2025 limits). Most program homes use the 60 percent tier; a good number of communities offer homes at the 80 percent tier, with the higher caps:

60% tier1 person: under $56,220/yr2 people: under $64,260/yr3 people: under $72,300/yr4 people: under $80,280/yr
80% tier1 person: under $74,960/yr2 people: under $85,680/yr3 people: under $96,400/yr4 people: under $107,040/yr

Earn more than the 80 percent cap for your household size and the application is denied at every home here, the market picks above are yours. Earn between the two caps and the 80 percent tier homes are your fit. A few homes sit at lower tiers with lower caps. Each card below names the community's lowest tier, and every community verifies your exact tier at application.

Ross's picks: income restricted

Every home income capped. Our Class A luxury pick leads, then the best of each class by real monthly cost per square foot, refreshed with our daily price checks.
