FAQ

Two ways to get started:

• Schedule a conversation via our booking page
• Complete our interest form at pineridgeliving.com/pineridge-intake-form

We start with a phone screening, then a fit conversation or tour, then background screening before approving membership.

Our process is designed to protect the peace and safety of the home:

• Phone screening — a friendly conversation about your lifestyle, goals, and housing needs
• Fit conversation or tour — we confirm mutual compatibility and walk through expectations
• Background screening — every member completes screening before approval

Screening focuses on behavioral compatibility and ability to live independently — not on any protected class. This is also your chance to decide whether Pineridge is right for you.

It depends on room availability and how quickly screening is completed. Once your membership is approved and a room is confirmed, we move quickly.

If you have a tight deadline — relocation, housing transition, or referral timeline — let us know upfront.

NO — submitting a form or scheduling a conversation does not guarantee approval, placement, or membership.

Membership decisions are based on availability, overall fit, and alignment with our community expectations, safety standards, and independent-living model.

Fit decisions are behavior-based and safety-based only — never based on any protected class. Disqualifying factors may include:

• History of violent behavior
• Repeated removal from prior housing for conduct issues
• Documented property destruction
• Inability to comply with independent living standards
• Active substance use that would compromise community safety
• Need for medical care, supervision, or personal assistance services

Getting started is straightforward.

• $75 Application & Screening Fee
• $250 First Week Membership Payment

After move-in, members transition to their regular weekly membership rate.

Pineridge uses a weekly membership model. Membership fees are paid weekly, in advance of each membership week.

• 12-week minimum commitment
• Members may pay up to 4 weeks in advance
• Utilities, WiFi, and furnishings are included
• No traditional apartment lease required

Membership renewal is contingent upon compliance with house standards and membership terms.

Pineridge is a professionally managed co-living community, not a traditional apartment complex.

Pineridge is designed for independent adults who value peace, responsibility, privacy, and a respectful shared home environment.

• Working adults seeking affordable, stable housing
• Adults relocating to DFW or entering a new season of life
• People who value a smoke-free, drug-free, peaceful environment without clinical oversight
• Individuals who want a ready-made community from day one
• Community-minded people who value respect over drama

Most members are simply looking for a peaceful, respectful place to live while focusing on work, personal growth, and their next chapter.

Quiet, predictable, and respectful. Most members work, keep regular schedules, and value rest, privacy, cleanliness, and shared responsibility.

Think peaceful evenings, conversations in the sunroom, cooking in the shared kitchen, or unwinding in the garden — not parties, chaos, or constant disruption.

Pineridge is operated by Larry Crawford and Natalia Crawford with a focus on structure, hospitality, and a peaceful member experience.
