Built for Texas

Built for Texas. Not a one-size-fits-all template.

Security deposit return within 30 days

Texas requires landlords to return the deposit, less itemized deductions, within 30 days of move-out. LawLease includes the compliant return language automatically.

Lead-based paint disclosure

Required for any home built before 1978. The wizard prompts you for the build year and adds the federal EPA disclosure when it applies.

Habitability and repair obligations

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.

Required notice language

Entry, deposit return, and termination notices use the state-specific wording Texas courts expect — not a recycled California template.

What's Included

Every clause your Texas lease needs.

Grouped by what they do, so you can see the protections at a glance. Every section is populated from your answers.

I was dreading writing a lease from scratch. LawLease took maybe 10 minutes and the document looked more professional than anything I could have put together myself.
