Tips for renting in Austin, TX
The Austin Tenants Council promotes the right to fair, safe, decent, and affordable housing for all. If you are relocating to Austin, understanding tenants’ rights and your responsibility safeguards you from potential legal hurdles.
Often, a lease comes into effect when the two parties append signatures, and the tenant remains liable whether they eventually move in or not. There is no law limiting the number of rent increases, and it’s worth mentioning that evictions can be carried out in as fast as two weeks. While most leases allows property owners to enter the houses without the express permit of the tenant, they can only execute that privilege if it’s specified in the contract.
