Relating to notice and opportunity to cure a tenant's default that must be given before filing an eviction suit.

HB 1711 requires Texas landlords to provide residential tenants with a written notice giving them five days to cure a rent payment default or other lease violation before filing an eviction suit. For rent defaults, the notice must demand payment and state that failure to pay within five days allows the landlord to issue a notice to vacate, with a limit of one cure opportunity per year. For non-rent defaults (like lease violations), the notice must specify the issue and allow five days to correct it if possible. The law takes effect September 1, 2025, and applies only to notices issued on or after that date.
