We have a simple clause in every lease that says that either party can terminate the lease by giving written notice of termination, without stating a reason, at least 60 days before the lease term ends.

This then can legally be appicable to the hoarders, poor housekeepers, beligerant residents and/or their guests, or for almost any uncorrected or repeat violations.

Documentaion (day, date, time, other residents written complaints etc) and pictures are essential tools

Send a letter of non renewal (your attorney should be able to send a template that complies with TX law, and let you know how much in advance it should be sent)... in Indiana, for instance, we have to let them know at least 30 days in advance (we typically give at least 60) and we are encouraged not to give a reason.

Our attorneys advise that while we don’t have to give a reason we better have one...especially for a protected class. We ensure we have legal notices to cure in the file and keep good documentation.

You don’t have to give a reason to non renew if you use the TAA lease. I’ve done it more than once. Just be sure to give them the proper notice as required on page one of the lease.
