He is leaving voluntarily, but they want him off the lease.

@Ben Hansen, LoopNet is open to the public and can be used to list spaces for lease. 

Hi - first-time landlord here setting-up the lease with a tenant for the first time.

With month to month or with an existing lease agreement?

What is the best lease term to set up the tenants on?

I am new to the Houston, TX area and have been looking at some private rooms to rent/sublease and some landlords/subleasors don't require signed leases from tenants (just for them to pay month-to-month).

It is a five unit property that has three of the units leased and two vacant (I will live in one of them).

Is it required that I have an agent or broker in order to enter into a lease option or seller finance arrangement?

Can I put contingencies like, 1) need to pass city rental inspection(scheduling that will be tough with in 5 days).2) Satisfactory review of all tenants related document, lease, income, criminal check, employment, rent payment historyAlso any suggestion on what should I be looking for.

I am a leasing agent working for a property management company out here in Denver.
