Tenant-rights advice for Graciela in Austin: a short consultation
A brief consultation with a housing advisor would help Graciela understand their rights.

My landlord in Austin has given me a 40% rent increase with a 30-day notice. I've read what I can online, but the rules are confusing and different sources contradict each other.
I'm hoping that someone with experience in housing or tenant rights in Texas could spare 20-30 minutes to explain the process, the deadlines and the documents I should collect.
I have my lease, all communications and photos organized. I'm happy to share them privately. I can't pay for a lawyer, so any guidance on free services in Texas would also be appreciated.
Thank you so much.

Wishing you the best. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
Rooting for you. Hope this works out for you. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. After 29 years in customer support I know how hard it is to ask for anything!
this could happen to any of us. Don't give up.
Hope it all works out, Graciela. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of Austin.
