| License Our History: In 1959, Cecil Laughlin, Jr., moved to Dallas, Texas. Laughlin had worked in real estate, and noticed that there was something missing in the large apartment market in Dallas. There was no easy way for an apartment renter to find just the right apartment from among thousands of choices. Based on that observation, Laughlin conceived the apartment locating service, and founded Apartment Selector. Apartment Selector was designed to offer free assistance in apartment finding for the renter, and provide a source of qualified prospective residents for the apartment community. The apartment community would be charged a fee only when a lease resulted from a referral. Today, Apartment Selector still operates based on that principle. The Franchise business has expanded into multiple states with numerous offices. We offer the most professional service available in the apartment locating industry, and are constantly striving to improve our services to the apartment renter and to the community. Kendall A. Laughlin, son of the founder, now heads the Franchise Company. Under his direction, the company is constantly refining and growing to meet the ever-changing demands of the apartment market. Apartment Selector is not only the oldest apartment referral service, but also the largest and most innovative. Since 1959 Apartment Selector Leasing Specialists have leased over 700,000 apartments.
