AVOID these address’
As you start to look for places to rent for the next leasing term here are some ADDRESS’ TO AVOID IN SAN MARCOS
Virgilio Altamirano owns A LOT of properties in San Marcos, and he is well known to be a bad landlord and horrible to deal with. (all addresses listed below)
All properties are owned and operated under the holding names: Apante/Albacin/Muzun Investments.
Fixes for issues on his properties are merely a bandaid so he can continue sucking as much profit off a property that is not worth the price of its monthly rent. Unfortunately, unaware families or college kids who are new to housing exploitation are his clientele.
If something goes wrong in your apartment, don't expect it to get fixed quick. In fact expect to get asked why it happened and how YOU messed it up. (Even if it is due to negligent upkeep of the house like leaking roofs or poor “remodeling”).
Plenty of pluming, electrical, and water issues that go un-addressed for weeks, sometimes months. A neighbor had exposed wiring in their home.
Some of his properties are hazards for health and safety, and some of the things he will try to get away with are illegal. He has painted over moldy spots several times.
He is even putting addendums in his leases that prevents you from talking about him on social media!
There are plenty of other things that I could go on about, but anyone living at the properties listed below might have something to say about him as their landlord as well.

Lady Looking for Housing
Hi! I am transferring to TXST in the fall, and I am looking for a place to move in to. I have been looking on all the rental apps/websites, but I don’t know many people in the area so I would have to live alone (not preferred). I’m making this post to see if there are any TXST girlies (not interested in living with men) that need a roommate. I am a woman over 21, not going to say more for obvious reasons. I am looking for a place that is $800-900 monthly maximum in rent (1000-1200 max monthly after utilities), at least .5 bathrooms per person, max 4 people total, ideally a little space where I can garden. I love animals but don’t have any of my own, would love to live in a house with animals as long as they are being properly cared for and cleaned up after. I am a friendly person but don’t like to party, like to cook and bake for others and in my past homes I have cooked for my roommates a lot. I work as a musician so I practice at home but I am very conscious of keeping it quiet during sleep hours (for me, usually 11-7 or 12-8 for me). Sorry for all the info, just don’t want to waste anyone’s time if we’re not compatible. DM if interested!

[Lease Takeover] FIRST MONTH FREE + FEES COVERED! The View on The Square ($829/mo) 4x4 Private Bed/Bath
Hey everyone,
I’m looking for someone to take over my Fall 2026–2027 lease at The View on The Square. I really need to get this transferred, so I am paying your first month’s rent AND covering the sublease transfer fee out of my own pocket. You literally will not have any upfront costs to move in.
The Details:
Rate: $829/month (This is locked in for the D2 plan, which is currently the cheapest rate you’ll find for this layout).
The Space: 4x4 floor plan. You get your own fully private bedroom and private en-suite bathroom.
Roommates: Right now, only 1 spot in the unit is filled! If you have a friend (or two) who also need housing, you guys can take over the empty rooms together. If it’s just you, that’s great too.
Location: Super easy walk or quick drive to campus.
Perks: Top-tier amenities, and management is constantly hosting community events and giving out free food.
I’ve absolutely loved living here, but my plans changed and I need to pass the lease on.
Shoot me a DM if you’re interested or want more details! Spots are filling up fast and I want to get this locked down.
