Approximately 12 years ago Texas passed legislation making Lease Options and other "One Sided" contracts illegal in Texas.  

@Jeff BurdickCan you enforce eviction and lease terms if you knowingly rent a unit that is non-complaint?  

While your lease may indicate that a tenant cannot create noise that harms the other residents ability to quite enjoyment of their units, this is hard to prove without a police enforcement.

It's not what you say, it's how you say it".THAT is what prompts legislation to prevent contract assignments in real estate, an otherwise perfectly normal, legal and common business practice.What Stan is talking about sounds like a hybrid between contract assignment and "back-to-back" closings.

The question is whether or not the lender chooses to enforce it.

How can I, as a landlord, enforce a rule, that we had to set as a reaction to something we didn't expect?

buying properties at tax deed sale in Miami dade  county florida most all have leins of some sort ranging from 500-22,000 dollars has anyone out there had to deal with code enforcement in Miami dade county if so let me know what I am dealing with. 

Once they sign it is legal and binding but it is not enforceable without expensive litigation.

What I am having issues with is 2 clauses: 1) compensating the PM for any issues arising, as part of the   hold harmless clause which I am fine about, 2)  Broker may perform any of Broker's duties through attorneys, agents, employees, and independent contractors, and shall not be responsible for their acts, omissions, defaults, negligence, and/or costs except for persons working in Brokers firm. 3) A clause on mediation which is fine, but I am not convinced with part of the paragraph which reads "The following matters are excluded from the requirement hereunder: (a) judicial or non-judicial foreclosure or other action or proceeding to enforce a deed of trust, mortgage, or installment land sale contract, (b) an unlawful detainer action, (c) the filing or enforcement of a mechanic's lien, and (d) any matter which is within the jurisdiction of a probate courtAny thoughts appreciated!
