Issues with a Landlord

[Tammy Whited]

Got a question for anyone who is willing to read and answer. Ok, we are renting a home in Texas, we had to break the lease, but we worked hard and found a new tenant. We have done nothing but be cordial with the landlord and they have been very condesending. Now they tell us that we have to hand the keys over to the new tenants, and they will let workers come in and do work. And after 30 days they will send us the rest of the deposit. Ok, what if they decide to do some bad things to the house, or make up stuff, how can we recant this? Someone please tell us what our rights are as renters!

Thank You,
Tammy
