Meet a Texas-licensed mental health professional by phone or video. If you're approved, your signed ESA letter arrives in 10-15 minutes.
Corpus Christi is home to Naval Air Station Corpus Christi and Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, and its human relations department is a HUD-certified fair housing agency.
For Corpus Christi renters, the key document is a letter from a mental health professional licensed in Texas. It supports a reasonable accommodation request so a no-pet policy, pet rent or a pet deposit can be waived.
With roughly 317,000 residents, Corpus Christi in Nueces County is Texas’s eighth-largest city. Renters across Downtown Corpus Christi, North Beach, Padre Island, Flour Bluff, Calallen and Southside rely on the same fair housing protections, whatever the building or landlord.
Texas has no ESA-specific housing statute, so the federal Fair Housing Act and Texas’s own fair housing law set the rules. Housing discrimination complaints can be filed with the Texas Workforce Commission, Civil Rights Division or with HUD. For the details, read our Texas ESA law guide.
