FAQ
Step-by-step guide to writing an eviction notice without a lease Start with a clear and concise header. State the reason for eviction. Specify the time frame for vacating. Include a section on unpaid rent or damages. Provide information on the consequences of non-compliance. Sign and date the notice.
In Texas you have to give an eviction notice of some type, at least a 3 Day Notice to Vacate or 3 Days to Pay or Vacate (Quit), so once you deliver the 3 day notice (we hand deliver them) then the 3 days starts the next day and ends on the 3rd day at pm. This is all detailed in our 3 day notices.
The single biggest factor in how long an eviction will take is how long you wait before filing suit to evict. The lawsuit cannot begin until it is filed with the court. Relatively speaking, the average eviction case moves through the Texas court system in about 4-6 weeks after a suit is filed.
Unless the lease agreement says otherwise, the landlord must give the tenant at least 3 days to move out. They cannot file an eviction suit before they give this notice in writing.
The notice can be given to the tenant in one of the following ways: In person to the tenant or someone in the household who is 16 years of age or older. In person by affixing the notice to the inside of the main entry door. By regular mail, certified mail, or registered mail, with return receipt.
In Texas, an eviction is also called a “forcible entry and detainer,” and a landlord cannot remove a tenant from the property without filing such a case. You can be evicted for violations of terms listed in your lease, for example: Not paying rent on time.
Texas Law. This section states that eviction suits must be filed in "a justice court in the precinct in which the real property is located."
An eviction must be filed in the Justice precinct where the rental property is located. Texas Property Code, Sec. 24.005 sets out the notice requirements for eviction suits. (Unless the notice requirements are stated in the signed lease.)
Eviction Cases must be filed in the Justice Court in the Justice of the Peace Precinct in the county in which the real property is located. See Section 24.004, Texas Property Code.
