"Don't just look for better Tenants. Continually look for ways to be a better Landlord, and your business will thrive."
--Ernie Garcia
The Law Office of Ernie Garcia represents Landlords in various trial cases in Texas Justice Courts, County Courts, District Courts, and even U.S. Federal District Courts in the Southern District of Texas. While our office is located in Houston, Texas and many of our cases are in Harris County, we have represented clients in Courts all throughout the State of Texas.
Our Landlord clients look to the Law Office of Ernie Garcia to send demand letters to tenants who have breached their residential or commercial leases. We prepare petitions for Eviction and represent Landlords, Investment Companies, and Property Managers involved in Evictions at the Justice Court and in Eviction Appeals.
The goal in every Eviction is full and final resolution, which sometimes includes Judgment, Writ of Possession, Abstract of Judgment, Writ of Execution, and even settlement. We also defend Landlords whose Tenants sue them in these same courts with claims for repairs, security deposits, or a variety of other Lease disputes.
Additionally, Ernie Garcia assists Landlords with drafting Leases that comport with the Texas Property Code and puts the Landlord in a firm position to derive the best benefit from the Landlord/Tenant relationship. He routinely delivers Notice to Vacate, Notice of Lease Termination, or Notice of Non-renewal for Landlords seeking to end a Lease relationship with a bad tenant. Ernie Garcia shows clients how the Eviction process can improve Tenant cooperation and reduces the potentially enormous losses that come from continued instances of partial and late payments.
Ernie Garcia has over 10 years of litigation experience in jury trials and bench trials. He has also represented clients on appeal to the First and Fourteenth Texas Courts of Appeal.
Through the years our philosophy has never changed. We are here for the benefit of our clients, and we seek to improve situations and to create innovative solutions to conflicts that affect the property, accounts, and business assets of the people we represent.

Why Landlords Need to Utilize Eviction More
0.24 "I do feel like I have a social responsibility..." ^^^THIS^^^ Considering the movement to longer have evictions on credit reports, a separate suit seems like the societally responsible thing to do, even if you never see a dime from it. If most landlords would do this, it would go a long way to improving professional tenant issues.
I sent 3 notices to the tenant since June to change their Zelle payments to mailing me certified funds due to non-compliance of the lease and chronic late payments. The tenant continued to send payment via Zelle. There is a clause in the lease that states 3. RENT: Tenant(s) agrees to pay Landlord during the Lease Term the monthly rental amount, paid in advance of each monthly rental due date, beginning with the second month (first month collected at move-in). Landlord may require installments to be paid with certified funds or money orders in a single payment. Rent is only paid when received by Landlord. The tenant never follows the lease. I had my bank suspend my Zelle profile after Zelle continued to have my phone number and email on file. Payment is due by September 1. If the tenant contacts me, which I doubt he will to make payment, I won't evict. If the tenant does not, we serve the tenant with eviction.I provided plenty of notice and communication only for the tenant to ignore my demands.
What if the notice of termination for non-payment of rent has a date that’s different than the actual delivery date via police officer plus the zip code is wrong?
These are two different Notices. If you are delivering the Notice because of the tenant's default, it should be a Notice to Vacate. Watch this video ua-cam.com/video/xKobHjPsiqs/v-deo.htmlsi=lErvHD-6Ew-ZQ-B_
Lots of scamming out there.
What do you recommend for a landlord to do if a prospective tenant has a credit score of 625 and has just graduated? The tenant recently found a job, which is why he needs to rent a place in a different state where the job is located. Should his parents be co-applicants? Should I ask for a W-2 form? What documents should I request from him to verify his income/info? How can I protect myself from fraud in this situation? Should I require a larger security deposit from him?Additionally, if I live in one state but the property is in another, in which state should I open an escrow account? My bank does not offer escrow accounts for regular individuals, only for lawyers and businesses. Is it acceptable to place the security deposit in a separate account that is not an escrow account?Lastly, how should I sign the lease when we are in different states? Is it acceptable to do it over Zoom
@vilentlevale6471 First, if you operate rental property outside of Texas, I cannot counsel you on state laws or regulations pertaining to that state, particularly laws regarding escrow accounts or the limits of a security deposit. As for security, you might want his parents to sign a personal guarantee of the lease while he builds rental history. You will want to verify his employment by calling and confirming it directly with the employer. As for Zoom, I always prefer at least one face-to-face meeting before handing over the keys to a rental. Do you have anyone local who tends to your property?
My tenant experienced a death in the family and traveled to his home country for the funeral.He asked me for a favor - to use his security deposit to cover his rent for November,which I agreed to.However ,nine months later ,he still hasn't returned the security deposit.he keeps promising to repay it,saying it will be next month,then the month after ,and this has continued for nine months.I even had him sign a paper where he promised to return deposit by July,but he has not done so.What can I do about this situation?
@vilentlevale6471 That depends on the terms of your lease and that agreement you made last November. If you agreed to use these funds without an adequate repayment agreement, you may be in a bit of a corner. You may want to have your case facts and agreements reviewed by a licensed attorney.
Great videos Ernie! I’d like to ask a question based on my eviction experience as a landlord. 1. I filed an eviction at the JP court. I won the judgement. 2. Tenant appealed a few days later, Pauper affidavit. 3. I called the court to get the due date the tenant had to pay into court registry. Got the date and set my timer as to when to file for a Writ of Possession. 4. Tenant failed to pay into court registry and I filed a Writ the very next day. 5. JP court notified the constable and a date is set to enforce the writ. 6. I just found out (thanks to you) that the appeal still continues. A date is set for this trial in a few weeks. 7. By the time the trial takes place, I should have my house back but I suspect tenant will not pay into court registry if he hasn’t done it by now. My question is this: if I have my house back, do I need to go to go to trail? If the tenant hasn’t paid into the court registry, what are the chances of my getting any back rent from the trial if I do attend? It seems like a waste of time to continue the appeal if the tenant fails to pay into the court registry and I have my house back. I mean, what are my chances of seeing any back rent at this point? If I was tenant and was already evicted, I would probably not pay anything and just have a judgement against me. Curious to hear your thoughts on this. Thank you!!
@axc34515 Once you have possession of the property, the only remaining issue is whether you want a judgment or not. If a final judgment is of no value to you, yes, showing up is a waste of time. However, if you believe you can collect a judgment from the tenant, it may be worth it to secure the judgment from the next court and then begin the collection process. Your first step in collection in Texas would be to get an Abstract of Judgment. ua-cam.com/video/PELpudXya04/v-deo.htmlsi=y3bmdNweR19NijIG
In my legal rental contract ... It does say i must gv 48 hrs notice if for inspection or maintenance. My renters say ... No. I do this 3 times and were in eviction ct and the judge stil gives into the renters. I lose with renters and i lose with the NOCARE judges. I feel like ct are to renters friendly even with LEGAL docs. The judge dont snap at me ... They just gv renters moreeeee FREEEEEEE months
@lucyhallinan Unfortunately, there are some very tenant-friendly judges out there. You may want to seek out an attorney in your area who can advise you on best practices in those courts.
Maybe tenants should be managed with positive reinforments instead of only negative reinforcement. My tenants always pay on time because if they do, they get fractional shares of ownership in the property in proportion to the size of their payment. If they pay double, they get extra shares of ownership, so half my properties are now actually ahead on rent, it's incredible, I never thought simply sharing the small benefits of capitalism with my tenants would work out so well, but it did.
@ianglenn2821 Those sound less like tenants and more like purchasers of property. That situation creates a different dynamic. But, yes, I too believe in positive reenforcement.
So what is the solution? My company called "FairShares" we help small landlords create shares of ownership for their LLC and distribute these shares to tenants in exchange for on-time payment. Now tenants have the positive incentives of ownership from capitalism, they feel a sense of pride about the property. Furthermore there is opportunity for significant growth for the LLC to become a REIT because one of the requirements for a REIT is at least 100 shareholders.
The concept of rent is anti-capitalist and destroying our society. I offered to pay my landlord double if he would give me just a tiny fraction of ownership somehow, he said no. This divorces the concept of work, money, and ownership. Renting is "pretending to sell" and we recognize the symptoms in our society. So many people "pretend to work" because there is no reason for them to work harder, if they make double money they will never be able to own, only get one month ahead in rent.
ok communist. rent is absolutely capitalist. I bet you went college to "learn" that bit of stupidity.
I don't agree. Renting is an agreement to use something someone else owns for a determined amount of time. The problem is that ownership is unaffordable for many and they are forced to pay rent which ends up costing more in the long run. I get it, you're mad. I'm mad too (i wish i coul afford a house), but you can't just go around saying things are "anti-capitalist" when you don't know what you're talking about. No one is "pretending to sell". You know they aren't selling you anything. You sign an agreement. If you don't agree, don't sign, but you might be living on the streets
@ianglenn2821 I'm certain that every material thing in a capitalist society has a price. I assure you, if you made a high enough offer, your landlord would sell. Right now, you are each participating in capitalism at the rate and for an exchange of rights that currently suit you both.
This is totally fine if she is talking about commercial real estate it’s called triple net lease
In nj do you have to accept payments if you already filed for non payment?
@@jbmuteboi2381 You would need to speak to an attorney in NJ for that answer. I'm licensed in Texas.
75% of this happens because of smoke now that Marijuana is legal. Has nothing to do with rent.
Mr. Garcia, I appreciate your content and information you being to light. I'd like to ask you about one of the Landlord problems that is surfacing and hitting states around the country. The "Double Security Deposit". How do do you fill about the Landlords only being able to collect 1 security deposit instead of 2 and how do you think Landlords should move forward?
@@GotDeals410 I think that the solution to a limited deposit is better screening and quicker evictions. Landlords shouldn't rely on the deposit as their only protection. They must be proactive throughout the leasing process.
Most Section 8 tenants are TURDS. But I did Section 8 my master efficiency to my brother who needs handicap accessibility. I made it so for him only and he gets the master efficiency with own door and kitchenette etc.
Actually, I've seen a lot of very happy landlords with Section 8 tenants. There are bad ones too, but bad tenants are everywhere.
TENANT ALWAYS HAVE TO PAY THEIR RENT AS SHOWN ON THE LEASE AND LANDLORDS MUST GIVE RECEIPTS "ALWAYS: SHOWING WHAT THE TENANT PAID.
Check is receipt?
This is why I like the move to more digital options for payment. The digital record works for both landlord and tenant.
@@LandlordAttorney thank you.
Thanks.

How much would a lawyer charge for an appeal?
Our retainer is $1,700 for the appeal. If you have additional questions, please email us at info@attorneyeg.com
Why does bro have the same voice as kingchris💀💀
1999, Meril Lester of new york lived in her rental. 2015 she suddenly needed an emotional support parrot ... Now 3. The LL tried evicting her but LOST. She won $165K.this is not FAIR to other renters and to have 3 support animals and the govemt dictating our business. LL ct fees over $20,000
When the justice court sends up the appeal, all documents presented in the justice court should also be sent along with the appeal. This is a legitimate misunderstanding, she thought the procedure of the courts wouyld have been forwarded to him,.
That's accurate. All of those documents were sent, but, the Plaintiff probably had a duty to prepare her own marked exhibits for the court record. These instructions were probably mailed to her or posted on the court's website.
My renter, her friend and i are doing our final walk. Closet rails has cockroaches dropings, i opened the microwave and theres live ones inside, also in ceiling light and bathroom tiles are all cracked, bugs trails outside, wood flooring all scuffed. Renter and her friend say its been like that for long time and after 2 yrs the foor is wear and tear. I took a lot of pic and bills from my pest company. But when i showed them to the judge abd how its on our rental contract .... I felt he was prorenter to no matter what i said or showed. Ernie its the jzdge who had no heart. He gv her bk all her security deposit and more. What can weLL do against judges????
Is it still possible to appeal? Is this property in Texas?
I3 mo ago, in the beginning, i talked to my section 8 renters about seeing the home and they agreed until oneday i came and i heard a dog barking. They refused me entry and i gv them notice about our initial talked about visits and how i heard a dog barking. I talked to my sect 8 and sect 8 housing keeps telling me its my rental. I tell my month to month renters that i want to end our rental but now renters are saying they will sue bec theyre sect 8 and now Calif say theres no clause rental law that LL needs a BIGGER excuse to drop sect 8 renters. So i ASK ..... Whose business is it? Mom pop rental is losing business
Sorry to hear that.
Pass behavior ... Present behavior. I have a list of things to listen. Sect 8 renters wants the world but pay little and the states DA say LL will be fined. So ERNIE how can i follow what you say if ur own legal backgr throws us LL under the bus???
It is my understanding that your properties are located in California. It seems this state is sympathetic to tenants.
Ernie I have a renter who says they can't pay the WHOLE deposit ... Is a sect 8 renter yet the state say it's discrimination and LL will be FINED so the state making me do this a do the renters. I talk to sect 8 and they said .. It's my rental yet the DA say I could be FINED. This is all double talk. So you lawyers out there in the podcast world .... What do you say when the renters wont comply yet the legal system hold us hostage? Us small mom pop business who also PAYING the city to do business in the city? Hippocrites SSSSS

If we let a family member live with us and we are serving them an eviction notice. Is putting the letter on their door in the same house we are living in and also putting the letter under their door to the room they are occupying good enough?
Unfortunately, unless you personally deliver the notice in-hand to the tenant, they can claim they never received a notice posted on the inside of "the main entry door."
So if it’s posted in the same house? What is the difference between inside the front door? And the bedroom door? Of their room they are in? If it’s 10 ft away from one another
@@LandlordAttorney the living space is all shared, one bathroom a living room and a bedroom. The only bedroom Is the one they are occupying . There is no lease or contract.
My tenant filed what do i do now
The most important thing for the Landlord to know is, when is the first day that a Writ of Possession can be purchased if the tenant fails to pay on time. Contact the court to ask.

The problem with any eviction for any reason is that, that. Co op or owners make false claims, and the courts expect you to prove yourself, while the courts don't make the acuser prove their accusations, nor provide thier proof, other than someone claimed something behind the scenes on thier phone or computer, 75% of people are illegal evicted, for smoking, even when you don't even smoke, all this rent crap is irrelevant to the other 25% of cases, in 2024.
Hello, thank you very much for the information. I have a question, I am a Real Estate agent and I have a listing and I received an application with an ESA registration certificate. Can I require a certificate from a medical professional? Or do I have to accept that certificate? Thanks
Yes, you can ask the applicant to supply documentation from a licensed medical professional indicating the medical need for an emotion support animal and documentation that this animal satisfies that need.
I always have my tenant sign w color photos n date to keep before they move in . Just be safe
I've been renting a bedroom in my small home. Im in Southern California north of L.A. I charge $700 including utilities. I've tried to get first and last, but no one can come up with it. Last two times I've charged $300 cleaning deposit plus $700 rent, total move in $1,000. But I get only bottom feeders with shaky incomes. I have had people tell me they'll only give me $100 cleaning deposit or ask me to waive it. I ask for check stubs but calling employers is harder. Also, I get a lot of people who list relatives as former landlords, so I can't get a good character reference. It's too long a story, but I'm dealing with a grifter now.
how many days do I have to file a writ of possession?
That depends on the rules of your state. In Texas, a landlord must file their Writ of Possession within 60 days of judgment, but can extend it an additional 30 days upon a showing of good cause.
If a tenant files for appeal & inability to pay court costs form, does the tenant have the responsibility to notify the landlord that they’ve appealed? What happens next?
Next, you should check with the court about the Tenant's requirement to pay rent. If she fails to do so, you should be eligible for a Writ of Possession. Here is a video on Eviction appeals: ua-cam.com/video/tXO7CcB7fr0/v-deo.htmlsi=NULap_7IHF6l8nsI
In my state, passing a bad check in the range of a rent payment is a felony subject to large fines and even jail time. so I dont have much problem writing or accepting such checks.....Im a real nice guy for a landlord, I am known to be kind and generous and quiet spoken ...people simply call me "Godfather".....
