"Texas Association of Realtors Request For Rental History" Form

[Annette Radvansky]

My tenant has violated the lease several times, had late payments, and has been negligent with the property other times. I have looked forward to the day the lease expires so he will move out. 

I am reluctant to fill this form out because I have negative feedback. The new landlord told me she would share feedback with the tenant if it is negative. Given his lease doesn't expire until the end of August, he may be vindictive and damage the property. 

Am I obligated to fill out this form?

@Annette Radvansky. There is no legal requirement for you to fill out the form (I'm aware of) and return it. 

If you want to be straightforward with the new proposed landlord, you can just tell them you will not fill out the form, but  would be willing to verbally discuss the tenant's performance.
