Missed 11 month warranty - no communication from tenant

[Sunil Kale]

Bit of a tricky situation here - my tenant has been paying rent on time. She is the first tenant in my brand new SFH in Katy Tx that i purchased in Nov 2023. I reached out to her about a month ago via text messages and calls (which were not answered) to schedule 11 month warranty for my property. But there has been absolutely no response from the tenant. I had my realtor go to the property in person(no one was home) and she also stuck a written notice on the door which stated that the tenant needs to call me otherwise the deposit will not be returned. It's been 2 weeks and I still haven't heard back. A couple of days ago, both my realtor and I called her number to follow up and the lady says the number does not belong to my tenant i.e. she's a diff person. However, the tenant was responding to me via text messages from that number till May of this year

Any suggestions what I should do next ? Should I consider sending a breach of contract / eviction notice ? 

What rights do we have to ensure the 11 month warranty repairs that were missed, are paid for by the tenant ?

Thanks !

Most leases indicate the landlord can access the property with 24 hours notice.  We do that all the time for inspections or to make repairs.  If you missed the window for completing the repairs, that is on you. Your tenant should not have to pay for it.
