Debunking the myths about renting
Through
education, communication, and legislation, AATC
provides resources to rental housing owners and
operators that assists them in developing and
maintaining quality rental housing.
In partnership with the Texas Apartment
Association (TAA) and the National Apartment Association,
AATC communicates regularly with our members about
changes in city ordinances and requirements; state
laws and regulations; and federal statutes and
rules that govern rental property.
In most instances, resident and landlord
disputes are based on provisions contained within
a lease agreement. AATC member properties use the
TAA Lease. You are encouraged to carefully read,
understand, and maintain a copy of your TAA lease.
Give special attention to lease paragraphs
regarding lease term, rent amount, rent due dates,
non-renewal notice, deposits, and maintenance
requests.
If you have a problem with your landlord, you
are encouraged to first contact them and attempt
top resolve the situation. If you are not satisfied with the resolution,
you may contact the
Texas Tenants Union at (214)
823-2733.
