If rental is as is, can tenant sue for any issues
Case Rating: *
In Texas, if a rental property is leased "as is," the tenant generally accepts the property in its current condition. However, landlords must still maintain basic habitability standards, like ensuring the property is safe and livable. If issues arise that affect habitability, tenants might have grounds for legal action.
