It’s the same math we send for every building on a shortlist of new apartments in Fort Worth [/ →](/) , and it’s the example behind our Fort Worth apartment specials [/fort-worth-apartment-specials/ →](/fort-worth-apartment-specials/) page. It’s an illustration with dated values, not a client story, and we don’t imply the special is still active. Live pages use the feed. ## What was the offer? Domain Benbrook is a ground-up community in Benbrook, on the southwest side of the Fort Worth area. On Oct 25, 2026, its one-bedroom was listed at $1,320 base rent with a special described as “6 Week Base Rent Free” on a 12-month lease. The minimum term for that special was still being confirmed. ## What does 6 weeks free work out to? We use two formulas. Free rent is base × 12 ÷ 52 × weeks. Net effective is base × months, minus free rent, divided by months. ![Ledger-style breakdown: base, special, fees, true monthly, year two](/images/content/ledger-style-breakdown-graphic-of-base-rent-specia.webp) | Line | Math | Result | | --- | --- | --- | | Base rent | | $1,320.00 a month | | Free rent | $1,320 × 12 ÷ 52 × 6 | $1,827.69 | | Year-one rent before the special | $1,320 × 12 | $15,840.00 | | Net effective | ($15,840 − $1,827.69) ÷ 12 | $1,167.69 a month | So the special brought the average monthly rent down to about $1,168. ## What did the fees add? The Greystar fee calculator for the building listed three required monthly fees: internet at $70, trash at $30, and pest at $6. That’s $106 a month. **True monthly = $1,167.69 + $106 = $1,273.69** That’s the number we’d compare with other buildings. It’s about $106 more than the net effective a portal might show. ## What happens in year two? Renewals price from base rent. If the base holds at $1,320, year two is $1,320 plus $106 in fees, or $1,426 a month. That’s a $152 jump, about 12% over the year-one true monthly. If the base rises 3%, year two is $1,359.60 plus $106, or $1,465.60, about 15% higher. | Scenario | Monthly | Change from year one | | --- | --- | --- | | Year one, true monthly | $1,273.69 | | | Year two, base holds | $1,426.00 | +12% | | Year two, base +3% | $1,465.60 | +15% | ## What about the address setup? ![Utility meter beside a new garden-style apartment building in soft light](/images/content/benbrook-water-authority-style-utility-meter-besid.webp) The building’s address facts change the setup, not the rent: - **City limits:** Benbrook city - **School district:** Fort Worth ISD - **Electric:** Oncor, so you pick a retail plan; prepaid plans need no deposit - **Water:** Benbrook Water Authority - **FEMA:** The geocoded point is in Zone AE, which we state as a fact. We’d ask for the §92.0135 flood notice [/guide/texas-flood-notice-92-0135/ →](/guide/texas-flood-notice-92-0135/) , which both parties must sign since Sept 1, 2025.
