DIRECT ANSWER

For UT Austin faculty and staff, answer this with current asking rent and disclosed move-in fees, lease term, utilities, parking, pet and guarantor rules, and remote verification, tenant protections and the employee start date. CH2 uses current school-specific sources where available and flags missing employee-specific data instead of borrowing a rule, price or benefit from another university.

Verify current asking rent and disclosed move-in fees.
Verify lease term, utilities, parking, pet and guarantor rules.
Verify remote verification, tenant protections and the employee start date.

For UT Austin, the current verified source set is strongest on UT Austin — Off-Campus Housing Marketplace and UT Austin — Off-Campus Living Resources, but CH2 has not yet cleared a question-specific primary source for this answer.

Before acting, verify the exact appointment type, property or address, work site and date that apply to you. Student-market sources can support enrollment, rental-demand and lease-cycle questions, but they are not treated as proof of an employee benefit or rule. A source about another university or an older employee anecdote is never treated as proof for University of Texas at Austin.
