Pricing and what lands on the bill besides rent
Four sources gave four different snapshots of asking rent in mid-2026: RentCafe listed units from $1,149, ApartmentHomeLiving from $1,284, ApartmentRatings a full range of $1,298 to $2,459, and Zillow an estimated move-in cost of $1,300 to $1,523 for its currently listed units. Treat any single number as a snapshot, not a fixed price: apartment pricing moves week to week with occupancy and promotions.
| Unit type | Beds / baths | Square footage |
|---|---|---|
| One-bedroom, compact | 1 / 1 | 814 sq ft |
| One-bedroom, standard | 1 / 1 | 900 sq ft |
| One-bedroom, large | 1 / 1 | 975 sq ft |
| Two-bedroom, compact | 2 / 2 | 1,140 sq ft |
| Two-bedroom, standard | 2 / 2 | 1,192 sq ft |
| Two-bedroom, large | 2 / 2 | 1,220 sq ft |
Six distinct floor plans span a 406-square-foot range within just the one-bedroom category alone, so two renters quoted “a one-bedroom at San Paloma” can be comparing units 161 square feet apart.
| Mandatory fee | What it covers | Billing basis |
|---|---|---|
| Water/sewer administration | Managing and billing water utility service | Per unit |
| Stormwater | Community stormwater drainage and runoff infrastructure | Per unit |
| Trash | Doorstep trash and recycling pickup | Per unit |
| Pest control | Regular pest prevention and treatment | Per unit |
| Amenity access | Access to shared resident facilities | Per unit |
| Gas administration | Managing and billing gas service | Per unit |
| Electricity | Unit electricity usage | Per unit |
None of the sources behind this table publish the dollar amount of any individual line item, per Homes.com’s fee breakdown — the leasing office discloses exact current figures only during application. Budgeting an extra $150 to $250 a month above quoted rent for this stack, until the leasing office confirms otherwise, is the safer assumption than trusting the headline number alone.
Is the listed rent the full monthly cost? No. Every source above quotes base rent only. At minimum, expect separate charges for water, trash, pest control, stormwater, and amenity access; RPM Living’s leasing office is the only source that will give exact current figures before you sign.
Ownership, management, and the Addicks submarket
RPM Living manages the community day to day, confirmed independently by both RentCafe and ApartmentHomeLiving. The entity that actually owns the property is not published by any freely accessible source. Yardi Matrix, the one data platform built for commercial real estate professionals, places the San Paloma property in the Addicks submarket at 372 units and 373,346 total square feet, and locks the owner’s name behind a paid demo. For anyone who needs the deed holder of record rather than the manager, the Harris County Appraisal District’s public property search is the next step; it wasn’t reachable as a direct link for this profile.
| Property | Address | Units | Distance from San Paloma |
|---|---|---|---|
| Village on the Parkway | 1333 Eldridge Pkwy | 352 | 0.29 mi |
| Avana Eldridge | 1415 Eldridge Pkwy | 668 | 0.5 mi |
| Briar Forest Lofts | 13202 Briar Forest Dr | 352 | 0.67 mi |
| San Montego | 1600 Eldridge Pkwy | 314 | 0.82 mi |
| Memorial West | 14900 Memorial Dr | 288 | 0.84 mi |
| Eclipse | 1725 Crescent Plaza Dr | 330 | 0.85 mi |
Unit counts and addresses are drawn from Yardi Matrix’s Addicks submarket listing; distances are drawn from uMoveFree’s proximity data for the same address. Avana Eldridge, half a mile north at 1415 Eldridge Pkwy, is nearly twice San Paloma’s size at 668 units, the largest property in the immediate comp set. At 372 units, San Paloma sits above Village on the Parkway, San Montego, and Memorial West, and below Avana Eldridge, among its six closest neighbors.
Who manages San Paloma? RPM Living manages the property. The ownership entity holding title is not disclosed by any free public source available at the time of writing; Harris County Appraisal District records are the next stop for confirming it directly.
On-site amenities, briefly
- Pool and spa: an Olympic-sized pool with tanning deck, poolside cabanas, and a heated spa.

Location and commute
San Paloma sits on Eldridge Parkway a few minutes from Interstate 10, inside Houston’s Energy Corridor. Zillow rates the address a Walk Score of 73 and a transit score of 33, meaning day-to-day errands are largely walkable while public transit access is limited. The zip code, 77077, falls under Houston Independent School District, with Ray Daily Elementary, West Briar Middle, and Westside High School as the assigned campuses.
What residents report beyond the marketing copy
The official site and every listing aggregator describe San Paloma in resort-style marketing language. The property’s 218 resident reviews on ApartmentRatings tell a more mixed story. Parking scarcity is a complaint that recurs across reviews spanning more than a decade, including allegations that management didn’t respond to complaints about cars blocking hydrants. Several reviewers describe thin floors and noise carrying between units. A January 2026 review reports ten different households moving out of a single building within two years and describes a water bill of $150 to $200 a month for a roughly 900-square-foot one-bedroom unit, well above what the base rent alone would suggest. The same site logs an overall rating of 4.0 stars across those 218 reviews, with 138 verified through SatisFacts.
Comparing San Paloma to nearby Eldridge Parkway communities
