Physically threatening behavior or verbal abuse by a landlord towards a tenant is a clear form of harassment. Repeated attempts to intimidate, verbally harass tenants, or engage in obscene sexual advances are all actions that are considered harassment.
Landlords can only enter the rental unit after they've given you notice, which is usually 24 hours (except in the case of an emergency).
There are no state laws that regulate landlord's entry in Texas. However, your lease agreement may allow your landlord to enter under certain circumstances. The lease may or may not require prior notice to the tenant. It may also authorize other people to enter, like maintenance staff or prospective buyers.
If the lessee transfers his or her entire remaining interest in the tenancy, then the transfer is known as an assignment. If the lessee transfers only part of his or her interest, then the transfer is known as a sublease.
In Texas, property owners are required to give reasonable notice before entering an occupied rental property for an inspection. While the law doesn't specify an exact timeframe, a 24-48 hour notice is generally considered appropriate.
In California, within the Business and Professions Code, Section 1995.260, the landlord cannot unreasonably withhold the consent of the tenant to assign or sublease the property.
