I have a 13 year history with landlord , upon renting this property she waived. All paperwork
****, can you clarify what specific paperwork your landlord waived? This information will help me provide more accurate advice.
Now a new management team has raised rent $ * security deposit $ * demanding an inspection ,,I had no clue !! Seems they’ve advised landlord to avoid me ,, this comes after perfect pay
In Texas, if a new property management company is involved:
- They can raise rent, but it should be stated in your lease agreement.
- The security deposit increase and inspection are unusual.
Please consult a local attorney or legal aid service for assistance.

Hello ****,
