Digest
HB 1711 amends the Property Code to require landlords to provide residential tenants with written notice and an opportunity to cure certain defaults before initiating eviction proceedings. Tenants would have five calendar days to address defaults, such as unpaid rent or other curable lease violations, after receiving the notice. The law specifies limits on how frequently tenants may cure nonpayment defaults within a 12-month period.
