Free Texas lease agreement, built for your tenant and address
Answer a few questions and get a Texas residential lease with your tenant, your address, and the disclosures Texas law calls for written in. We wrote it to the statute; a Texas attorney has not reviewed it yet, so read it before you rely on it. When it reads right, send it to your tenant to sign online. Building it is free, with no credit card and no account to start.

What is built into the Texas lease
- The floodplain and prior-flooding notices, with the statutory dual-signature block
- Both statutory early-termination rights notices
- The underlined repair-remedies and smoke-alarm notices Texas formatting law requires
- The eviction-notice mechanics under SB 38, effective January 1, 2026
How it works
- Answer a few questions. Property address, tenant names, rent, dates, deposit, and the handful of choices the lease actually turns on. About five minutes, one topic at a time.
- Watch the lease fill in. The real Texas document fills in as you go, so you can read every clause before anyone signs.
- Send it for signing. Your tenant signs online, from any phone. Sending it sets up your PropManager account, free for your first 2 weeks with no card.
Texas rules the lease leans on
- How long a Texas landlord has to return a security deposit
- How much notice Texas requires to raise rent
- Write a rent increase notice
Common questions
Is the Texas lease really free?
Building it is free, with no account and no credit card. To send it to your tenant for e-signature you create a PropManager account, which is free for your first 2 weeks with no card.
Is it reviewed by a Texas attorney?
No. PropManager Editorial wrote it, and the template is current through the 89th Legislature (2025) and verified against primary statute text. It is an informational starting point, not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for a licensed Texas attorney reviewing your situation.
Can I edit the lease?
You set the terms by answering the questions: rent, dates, deposit, and the handful of choices the lease turns on. The document fills in as you go, so you can read every clause before you send it. The wizard is not a free-form editor.
Does it work outside Texas?
No. This template is Texas-specific. Other states have their own templates, linked below. For a state we have not written yet, the wizard gives you our general-use lease and says so plainly.
What if my state is not covered yet?
You can still build and send a lease: the wizard gives you our general-use lease and tells you so plainly. Leave your email and we tell you when your state's own lease is ready. Covered states are listed at the bottom of this page.
