Texas Eviction Notice
Before a Texas landlord can file for eviction, the tenancy usually has to be ended with written notice. How much notice depends on the reason. Here’s what Texas’s statute says for each kind of notice this template builds.

Texas Eviction Notice FAQs
How much notice is required to end a month-to-month lease in Texas?
At least one month from either side; the tenancy ends on the later of the date in the notice or one month after it’s given. The parties can agree in a signed lease to a different notice period (§91.001).
