Title: Houston, Texas: Understanding Unlawful Self-Help Used by Landlords — A Tenant's Letter to the Landlord Keywords: Houston Texas, letter, tenant, landlord, unlawful self-help, gain possession Introduction: Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a matter of great concern that has recently come to my attention. It has come to my knowledge that you have employed unlawful self-help methods in an attempt to gain possession of the property I am leasing from you. As a responsible tenant, I believe it is essential to discuss this issue promptly and resolve it amicably. 1. Description of Unlawful Self-Help: Unlawful self-help refers to actions taken by a landlord without seeking proper legal recourse to gain possession of a property. It is essential to understand that these self-help measures are illegal under Texas law and can result in severe consequences for the landlord. Unlawful self-help may include: a) Changing locks: Altering or replacing the locks on the property without providing proper notice to the tenant. b) Shutting off utilities: Disrupting essential services, such as electricity, water, or gas, which are necessary for the tenant's safe and comfortable living conditions. c) Removing personal belongings: Removing or seizing the tenant's personal belongings from the premises. d) Harassment or intimidation: Engaging in aggressive behavior, threats, or creating an unhealthy atmosphere to coerce the tenant into leaving. 2. Identification of Specific Incidents: In light of the above, I would like to bring specific incidents to your attention where I suspect unlawful self-help actions have been taken: a) Incident 1: On [date], I discovered that the locks on the main entrance were changed without any prior notice, preventing me from entering the property and accessing my personal belongings. b) Incident 2: On [date], the electricity, which is included in my lease agreement, suddenly stopped working without any explanation from your end. This action has caused great inconvenience and distress. 3. Legal Consequences: It is crucial to emphasize that the usage of unlawful self-help measures not only violates the terms of our lease agreement but also contravenes the Texas Property Code. If these actions persist, I may have to seek legal remedies available to me, including filing a complaint with the appropriate authorities and pursuing a civil lawsuit for damages incurred. 4. Request for Immediate Resolution: Given the seriousness of this matter, I kindly request that you cease all unlawful self-help actions immediately. I also request that you meet with me personally to discuss this issue and find an appropriate and legal solution for both parties involved. I believe resolving this matter outside of formal legal channels would be in the best interest of everyone concerned. Furthermore, I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and hope we can resolve this dispute with mutual respect and understanding. Yours sincerely, [Your Name] [Urgent Contact Information]
