Built for Texas
Texas requires landlords to return the deposit, less itemized deductions, within 30 days of move-out. LawLease includes the compliant return language automatically.
Required for any home built before 1978. The wizard prompts you for the build year and adds the federal EPA disclosure when it applies.
Texas repair-and-remedy rights are built into the lease terms, with a clear request process so both sides know what to do when something breaks.
Entry, deposit return, and termination notices use the state-specific wording Texas courts expect — not a recycled California template.

Rent, deposits, and the math behind late charges.

Statutory notices and the signing block.
You don't need to know Texas landlord-tenant law by heart. LawLease does. As you build your lease, the wizard flags the clauses Texas law requires and fills them in correctly based on your answers.
Texas mandates a 30-day return window with itemized deductions. Your lease reflects that — no guesswork on the refund process.
Beyond the template
Here's what else you get.
Share your lease with your tenant and collect signatures digitally — no printing, no scanning, no back-and-forth.
